BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 It falls on the org structure set by the Pegulas http://blogs.canoe.com/krykslants/nfl/you-could-see-latest-bills-melodrama-coming-and-the-blame-it-must-be-said-falls-on-the-pegulas-but-heres-how-they-can-fix-it/ Interesting thoughts, many conveyed by posters here as well and look at the clicks gotten! If the Bills collapse that its warranted. If not is is all hot air. BTW was this person pro or anti EJ throughout camp. Tough cuts happen all the time. I expect more tough cuts to come.
nucci Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 But why are we hearing ahead of time that we are thinking of cutting this player or that player or that there is internal debate or disagreement? I don't think this stuff should be coming out Because reporters have to write something. There is always going to be internal debate and disagreements when putting a roster together. 49ers released Gore, Texans Andre Johnson...it happens. I'm disappointed Jackson is gone but I'm not flipping out like most here. I'm ready for the season to start. We have a really good team.

I don't believe that reporters should be getting the quality of information that they seem to be getting about the inner workings of the organization. I don't think that happens with quality organizations, hopefully we get it straightened out.
nucci Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 I have no problem with what is going on internally. The problem, to me, is all the leaks. I don't think this happens with good organizations Leaks happen all the time
ALF Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Now look what you did Tim http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2015/09/02/buffalo-bills-doug-whaley-fred-jackson-rex-ryan
Wayne Cubed Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Haha going rouge is such a buzz word now.

ALLEN1QB Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Who cares the season is about to start people we should be talking about that. So the oldest RB in the league was cut BIG DEAL!

aristocrat Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 So dysfunctional...the skins have us beat by a mile though. It's still funny we are arguing over who are 4th string rb will be.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 I love Kryk's reporting I always feel like its an unbiased opinion which is refreshing CBF
NoSaint Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 What I find interesting is the "Whaley made the right move" crowd. I wonder where 99% of them were Sunday night. there have been a few of us saying the writing was on the wall all offseason. and many of the accused "right move" crowd are simply saying that they are fine with the decision either way - simply that there wasnt a distinctly wrong move.

Maniacal crusade...
Snorom Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Anybody really care about he said she said news reporting I sure don't LETS PLAY SOME FOOTBALL
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) and look at the clicks gotten! If the Bills collapse that its warranted. If not is is all hot air. BTW was this person pro or anti EJ throughout camp. Tough cuts happen all the time. I expect more tough cuts to come. Kryk is typically a feature piece/opinion writer, not a daily news guy AFAIK. His one piece I saw on the QB competition was very even-handed and described the flaws of all 3 QB as he saw at the practice he attended, without any apparent bias. HIs flaw seems to be that he lacks his own inner connections so he tends to regurgitate what other media says at times - for example after Marrone left, he referred to the Bills as "Dysfunction Junction" and talked about Polian coming as Football Czar etc. He promoted the Bills trying to acquire RGIII after Orton retired as 'we're not going to find our next QB in EJ'. When writing about Marrone as OL coach of Jax, he quoted Bradley as saying the Bills had a well-coached line under Marrone and "ran the ball very well" -- which he may have thought spoke for itself as delusional but it would have been clearer to those who aren't intimate with the Bills if he'd cited the Bills YPA and # of attempts or something. Edit: I guess I should add that mainstream media seems to have the same flaw, after I saw the MMQB piece by Robert Klemko parroting the Tim Graham tweet as "Whaley facing accusations of going rogue". Sorry, but a reporter's tweet about "going rogue" which is not substantiated or sourced except "inside the organization" does not constitute an accusation IMO and if it does - under law one has the right to face one's accuser, morally and ethically I think the principle holds. "intimation" or "reported by unidentified sources in the organization" would be better. The media are also exploiting Twitter I think, Edited September 3, 2015 by Hopeful

Don't straddle the fence, it's lame.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 In all honesty I think this was all done so Rex doesn't take any heat. Whaley is handling the fallout. Would fit what's going down. "Good cop Bad cop"
NoSaint Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Don't straddle the fence, it's lame. ah, i forgot you prefer the extreme takes, even when many of the decisions can easily go either way without extreme consequence.
