His role isn’t significant for the success of our season and I don’t think keeping him while the civil suit and criminal investigation are both pending is worth the backlash this team is taking.

Agreed

 

He made a point that he was "trying to be solution oriented right now" and "trying to get the truth" and "that's what keeps going through my mind - try to do the right thing".

 

But it seemed pretty clear to me, despite him deflecting questions, that he feels he was misled and not given complete information and perhaps maybe let down

 

Candidates for that "let down" would be whoever was charged with investigating and vetting Araiza pre-draft, whoever on the Bills was charged with investigating after the LA Times article came out and Matt Araiza hired a lawyer (and allegedly communicated with the Bills -but with whom on the Bills), and possibly Matt Araiza himself.

He feels let out to dry. Rightfully so.

 

He shouldn’t be the first person to speak to the press live regarding this situation.  Beane should be.

Hooo boy

Beane and Terry need to be in front of a mic ASAP. 
 

From a human perspective, I want Araiza  gone. 
 

From a football perspective, let McD get back to work, and refocus the team on football. Let the front of house people manage the front of house.

She was a 17 year old girl.

Did you see the choke marks all over her throat?

Did you see the bloodstains all over her clothes?

 

Will you say just one more thing so I can get me some satisfaction?

Yea why wasn’t he arrested and charged…. Can anyone answer that

Bills really F'd up with their statement yesterday.  All they had to say was "We are aware the serious allegations involving one of our players and are actively investigating it.  In the meantime Araiza will not be suiting up."    They worded the their as though they've known for some time and have basically brushed it aside but you can clearly tell from McD's presser that he just found out about this as we all did.

It should be. But whatever the position of player (unless it is a star player eg franchise QB) he will be off the team for sure due to the effect on the place that the news brings.

How about a deal?

If anybody is arrested and charged for raping that teenage girl, I toss you out of here.

If a bloodied, bruised, gang-raped teenage girl turns out to be the B word you claim, you can stay.

Deal?

Kind of ***** to make Sean go out there by himself to address the media. I'd have to imagine Beane and others within the Bills know much more about the situation and should be the ones addressing it. Not the coach.

Better chance of the Bills going 0-17 than Terry talking publicly.

That's the impression I got that someone knew about potential stuff but he didn't. I'm just guessing obvs

I highly doubt we properly vetted pre-draft though it’s interesting that Warwow indicated that some teams were aware of the allegations at that point. I imagine the biggest cloud is what has happened after 30th July. 
 

Also, who cut Haack? If it was McDermott, what information dud he have on Araiza prior to making that decision and what did he find out in the last 24 hours?

It's kind of just how things lined up this came up yesterday as they were traveling to a preseason game that he'd be speaking after.

I'm also guessing Beane is working at what he can do to fix this situation and find the truth. One thing for certain, I doubt they give a great review of the PI.
