  1. It's execution, not scheme or philosophy, that cost the bills the game
  2. Jags and Falcons... they need big second halves
  3. Ravens handling business against the Dolphins Jags offense can't catch a break
  4. This thread was started too soon dammit
  5. The most billsy move will be the cards falling our way, winning in Oakland and losing at home to the Browns
  6. I would agree. Go Giants. If we beat Pitt, we own the tie in the Wild card while we don't own it vs Balt
  7. Agreed here, O'Leary can fill in nicely catching the football but how will he fair in the running game remains to be seen
  8. So you're arguing compassion and respect are situational? That's what I was saying. Brady has never been in that position and this isn't a playoff game, despite what many people say. And Gronk will not be released. At only 4.5 million next season, Gronk will definitely be back
  9. If Tom Brady missed a game for the birth of a child, would he be cut? Will they release Gronk for being injured? Players, employees can earn this right by producing and being a contributing member to organization
  10. I will agree to disagree with your opinion. I respect your thoughts and hope that Nick O'Leary will shine.
  11. Bill Walsh would argue you're wrong. It is a business, yes. It can often force teams into difficult situations. But making a business decision doesn't make an organization disrectful when gone about the correct way. Leadership can, in fact, make hard and impactful decisions but can do so with a purposeful, reasonable and compassionate manner.
  12. I think it's unfair for you to make the assumption that I agree with those moves or beliefs. I'm speaking from my beliefs, my experiences. I'm not the Buffalo Bills. I was simply stating that I agree with the idea that players should be shown respect and compassion when it comes to families and personal lives. The Bills have many, many disfunctinal aspects in their organization that I disagree with but I believe them to be correct in allowing a player to miss time for this reason. Is it not reasonable to identify specific situations as respectful or compassionate? Why must it be labeled as a black or white situation?
  13. Why look at this so cut and dry? There is a situation aspect to this. I'm looking at it from an organizational and cultural perspective. Clay does his job on a weekly basis. Regardless of how you might feel about his production, he is doing his job. He has earned the respect of the team to be able to do what he is doing. This isn't preseason and he isn't an undrafted FA trying to make a roster. It's just my personal belief that successful organizations, in sports and other business enterprises, treat their employees with respect and compassion. It breeds an environment that people want to be a part of. Maybe you feel differently and that's fine.
  14. Lack of production is much, much different than missing a single game to attend a one and a lifetime family experience. It is a cold business but being let go because of production is nothing surprising.
  15. They don't have to be a family. But it is important to show respect and compassion for its members.
  16. Where are you getting the fact that they disapprove of him missing the game? I haven't seen that anywhere.
  17. Many successful organizations believe in and display compassion for their employees, not only professionally, but personally. It happens in every aspect of employment. Creating an environment where players' personal lives are not respected nor appreciated with create a disfunctionsl culture and project a negative atmosphere. I hope and am glad the Pegulas and the Buffalo Bills respect and approve of a players'"family first" mentality.
  18. Usually no news is good news, but I'm assuming Clay with not be there?
  19. I wonder how likely it is that Nick O'Leary permanently takes over the starting role as the Bills TE because of an amazing performance. 5 catches 110 yards and a score. Calling it now!
  20. As unfortunate as this timing may be, I'm glad he chose to remain home. That being said, it still sucks for the team
  21. Someone is injured and it's not on our team?! Must be Friday!
