So mad. This is ridiculous. Where is Pegula on this one? Can he come in and save the day?

 

Come on...really? That's the kind of owner you want? Didn't we hear enough Ralph draft day stories to learn that football decisions should be left to the football guys?

Total classless move by the Bills.

 

Not a big cap hit, great warrior for team, and at the end of the season he likely would have retired as a Bill.

 

 

BBBBBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

 

bad move!

Despite the fact that he never played for a playoff team the guy was/is my all time favorite Bill. I enjoyed the SB teams more but I respect no player more than Fred Jackson. This puts a damper on the upcoming season.

 

This year just sucked for players I love. I'm a Phillie fan too (cue the booing) and lost both Utley and Hamels. Utley was my Fred Jackson of baseball. Other players (and Phillies) were better than him but I loved no player nearly as much due to how he plays the game.

 

At least the Bills project to be a good team, so there's that.

 

 

Sigh.

I was hoping they'd keep him around as a good 3rd down blocker, but the Bills have so many RB's and he became expendable, especially at his age. Thanks for all the memories FredEx!

not really. there are rational fans.. I fail to see why this is an issue outside Fred was loved.. but he's older and slower and it makes little sense to keep older and slower over younger faster with less wear and tear just to appease the fan base.

 

its about winning championships and tough decisions must be made.

 

I have 0 issues with this decision. I'll miss Freddie but it had to happen eventually

Speed isn't everything. Freddie squirm through holes and moves the chains. Is strong on his feet. Runs routes well and is a lock in pass protection. I'd be fine if he's cut in Lieu of a better player, but Bryce Brown hasn't proven to be that.

I get the football decision part of this. I truly hope that Rex, Whaley, and perhaps even Terry met with Fred personally when they told him the news.

I didn't think we were healthy enuf at RB to release anyone

 

stupid move. We have a ton of RB's, but they are all injured. Perhaps they'd rather keep Wood? He had some decent carries. They both looked good sat, but I'd feel more comfortable with F.Jax.

He desereved one more year. Bryce Brown was supposed to go before Jackson. Just wait till the next time he fumbles. We're all going to be calling for Freddie. Very unpopular move.

If they only keep three RB, and it's Shady, Karlos and Brown, because they want to keep extra WR and TE that can help the team, I understand it as a move to help the team overall. But if they keep four, and keep both Boobie and Brown, I don't like it at all, because I think we are a better team with what he can do on the field and in the locker room and as an organization.

jump on the Pirates bandwagon for the Playoffs :)

Definitely. I vaguely recall Thurman & Co finding out they were released from ESPN? That's bad karma.

!@#$.....You......

 

Over Fumbles-Brown? Are you shitting me?!?

 

Way to take the heart out of this offense

Brown though? Brown? Why Brown?

I would have like to see the organization make an announcement treating Fred with as much dignity and class as he has shown. To hear the cold, hard fact (although it is a cold, hard business) through a reporter just doesn't seem right.

i think they will go with McCoy, Karlos, Dixon, brown. I think because Fred doesn't play ST (unless he's returning punts) that hurts him.

 

They cut Seale today too so I think they will use hill and wood next week and then wood to PS.
