In the NFL, I've seen incidents of actual violence (e.g. breaking nose, fist fights, etc.). This, while definitely something you don't want, seems more like a petty argument. I agree that it's nothing to scoff at, but cutting him seems really extreme this early on. I would give him an ultimatum and lay down a final warning. If he doesn't agree, cut him. If not, put him on "probationary" status and let him play. That may solve things. If the dude cares about football, he'll put all this aside and put his helmet on. If he doesn't care enough to let things go and apologize, like I said, you have your answer. This is a ridiculous solution. Yall want talent so bad yall going just let players walk all over us he didnt just miss just one practice. They only fined him for one. They supported him and he spit in their faces. But he can catch so no biggie let's give him another chance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the day, as a fan, I want to see AB on this team. Your insane. We aren't close to a playoff team. We got 6 straight games away from Oakland. No pass rush. Tom cable. Left side of oline ain't great. A whole bunch of new players in a new scheme. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll probably be a cooler heads prevail type thing, but a huge dark cloud every week after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we deal with him over a 17 week season. Probably not. Can you imagine the turmoil? So we need a cheap & effective out if that's the decision. If we can’t deal with him over a 17 week season then I don’t want him to get any guaranteed money. Save that money for next offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be surprised if he just receives a heftier fine and is on the field week 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoffs with AB? Our roster is t-e-r-r-i-b-l-e. Especially on defense. Front seven is like a low level college program. And we have Tom Cable. I don’t care if we sign Trent Brown... we will have a Bottom 8-12 Pass Protection with Cable. End of Story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that AB should get cut, but let's not compare the NFL to regular workplaces. People threatening each other is pretty common in the NFL. Hell, we have Tom Cable on our staff who broke his assistant's jaw. AB going off on Mayock was wrong, but it's not abnormal in the NFL for dudes to get into a shouting match. But this combined with all the other drama and all the future drama that AB brings makes me want him gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't really classify Mayock as Brown's boss. He's a "GM" that got hired by the real boss, which is Gruden. Just saying, dudes do fight and argue in the NFL. I've seen Tom Brady go phycho on his coaches before. But with AB, it's one thing after another and hopefully its reached it's end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 No one is probably more upset than Gruden. He probably designed plays all summer just for AB. I wouldn’t doubt 1/6 of our playbook revolves around AB doing something important like being the prinsry target on one of his signature routes or a decoy. Since Gruden planned for AB all off season, I’m sure our offense will suck this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
