There was no "secret" meeting between Bills owners and players. Ownership has met with (and often talk with) players before, did Fri morning

...was not behind Rex's back and it was his decision to fire Roman. I'm told that decision came from (1/2)...

...many meetings and discussions going back to last season between Rex and owners, essentially. (2/2).

Rex, I'm told, felt things were to the point where they would not change with offense after hoping they would. Owners agreed and supported.

Agreed and it's probably more complicated than that. Sometimes executives are afraid to suggest to their owners that they fire someone and eat their contract. So the owners sense this and get involved directly. When that happens they're doing their executive a favor. I've been involved in that sort of situation. It's quite possible Rex wanted Roman gone but was more comfortable with the Pegulas coming to that conclusion themselves, as well. I have a hard time believing that if Rex wanted Roman to stay, the Pegulas would've forced the move anyhow.

 

I respectfully disagree. They may have been doing Rex a favor.

 

If they went to Rex and told him "we want you to make a statement change", Rex would have understood what they meant.

 

Look, after THAT game, in only week 2, to fire the OC makes little sense except as a knee jerk reaction. I never thought much of Roman, but now wha t do they do? The guy who is replacing him is a complete zero and will have NO help from anyone on that staff.

That's my read as well. Rex wanted Roman out. Owners did their own homework to confirm what the coach was telling them and then threw their support behind him.

Truth....

 

As predicted. Total trumped up media nonsense to create panic and news where none really exists.

So why not fire the DC as well?

I just don't think that's how it happened. Again, based on my own experiences with these things, it's far more likely that Rex hated Roman and has wanted him gone for ages. The owners did their due diligence and then let the firing occur.

I don't see the big deal honestly. How do we know Rex and Terry didn't talk on the phone before the players meeting about letting Roman go. And Terry wanted to get the pulse from the players before giving it the green light? We don't know, and after the fact does it really matter? We're on to Arizona.....

Why should you believe Sal's ("I'm told") source/take?

Posted

Because it's exactly what I said - this was Rex's decision. Rex doesn't want the DC to be fired.

 

 

I meant why, after that game, would the Pegulas look only to the offense and not the horrible defense that Fitz embarrassed...at home?

oh please. look at cleveland and somehow they get hue jackson, look all around the league and see meddling owners. this couldn;t be further from the truth.

Exactly. There are only 32 of these jobs. And the Bills are a team that has been spending money. There will be coaches lining up to come here.

Why do you keep repeating this? If reporters have trusted sources, why is it that you know differently? You want them to name their sources?? That's not how this works you know...

 

I know differently because I have my own trusted source Mr. WEO. All i need is a twitter account and it is news.
