This kind of behavior I really dislike and is uncalled for once the game is over let it go don't be a jerk.  How about go up to the guy shake his hand and say have a happy Thanksgiving or something. Geeeez

I'm with you & if McD heard of it that could be a part of the reason we may not see him here next year, I think McD would like his players to rise above things such as this & be the character players he is trying to bring here which could also be a reason why he didn't use the 5th year option on Shaq !!

My goodness, there really are a lot of pansies here.  Have any of you complaining ever competed in anything?  It comes with the territory

This isn’t a ringing endorsement as a McD process kinda guy. It’ll be interesting to see how they approach re-signing him

Expand  

He’s our best pass rusher and it’s not even close. You need a couple of guys that are going to mix it up

There was absolutely nothing wrong with it.  It was even family friendly.  No cussing, no punches. Just a friendly introduction to who he was?

Interesting.  I didn't hear any yo mama references

Expand  

Pretty sure when I saw the clip on my phone last night he ended it by calling him a m********r and then some Bills escorted him away from McGovern.

Classy! Shaq has always shown great self-control. He’s playing well but should stop acting like he’s a 10 time pro-bowler. He really showed that 5th round lineman nobody has ever heard of who the real man is. Morse tried to stop the embarrassment from continuing

It will be interesting to see what we do. Beane has a track record of not overpaying for players. It will all depend on how Shaq finishes out the season. If he finishes with 8 or more sacks I think Buffalo will move to re-sign him long term. I think it would be wise to let Murphy go and to extend Lawson but he must finish strong.

Same goes for Connor McGovern (who?).

Lol.    This board's a constant source of humor.

 

McBeane threw down the gantlet with Lawson and made it a "prove it" year for him.   So far, he has.     If you think McDermott wants a team full of alter boys, IMO, you are sadly mistaken...

Yep, I was wrong.  He said some bad words.  Oh well

[r00tabaga]

He played awesome yesterday. 

McD probably hates this kinda press but Shaq is producing this year.

I am shocked, just shocked. Who would have guessed, trash talk before and after an NFL game ??

 

What will the children think....?

 

Expand  

Dunno. As I get older & older, I seem to ‘get off my lawn’ resent this shite more & more. 
 

I was watching all the early games at the bar and some clown from the Raiders, got up to do a sack dance! You know, as his clown team was being beatch slapped 3-33, by the J*E*T*S?????

 

On the day that the record was surpassed,

ACT like the dude who went to the End Zone 90+ times, with breathtaking, personal efforts and simply handed the ball to the Ref!

Act like Barry Sanders!

Act like you’ve already won the SB MANY times!

Act like you’ve been there, before!

 

[US Egg]

A whole lot of nothing.

 

Boys being boys.

 

Being 8-3 is the story.

 

[Captain_Quint]

He had a hit on Allen yesterday (and Allen did complete it for like 15 yds) that set the tone for the D. It was a perfect midsection spear that took the wind out of Allen.

 

Totally legal, but he hit him as hard as I've seen Shaq hit someone. He played lights out yesterday.  

[TigerJ]

I guess he's always been a trash talker.  So is McGovern.  They have a bit of a history, and McGovern allegedly started it before the game.  Trash talking certainly is not my style, but I don't think it's a big deal.  I don't expect it will affect Lawson's future status with the team or his relationship with McDermott unless it escalates a lot more than it has.

Eh, I don't mind him giving back to someone who was taking a shot at him pre-game.

 

On the other hand, afterward, I would have rather heard something like this:

 

"My job on the two sacks was about as easy as a lineman could hope. I wasn't blocked on either sack, all I had to do was chase the QB. The props go to the coaching, the scheme and my teammates who created the situation for me to go in untouched. "

(Yeah, I know, that sounds boring).

 

They mentioned in the game yesterday that something like 16 different players on the Bills have a sack this season. That's a pretty incredible figure, considering they only have 32. (actually that's a good figure.).

 

In many, many cases, they are scheming pass rushers open. A number of Phillips' sacks came from a stunt or a twist where he went in untouched. In this season, more than others, sacks are a product of scheme as much as individual effort.

 

[Alphadawg7]

Not sure what I loved more...Shaqs performance, Shaqs post game trash talk, or the funny but overly stiff reactions from the no fun police in this thread.  
 

Thought his post game trash talk was great and warranted.  
 

Go Shaq, Go Bills

Where did I say that I’m concerned? I’m saying that this isn’t how McDermott’s guys typically act. Shaq talks a lot of trash and got into a fight last year. Just play the game and shut the hell up especially after the game (and after you win)

I’m sure Sean quickly praised Shaq In the locker room for talking trash after the game

Expand  

I’m sure shaq praised McDermott after he tore into a reporter.
