From what little facts I could gather, he sounds guilty. I’m no court of law. Just weighing the details Would've been good for the bills to dig a little deeper.

You did your homework and felt good about it (as of a couple days ago) and let him win the job. Or you had no clue the extent and had to cut him. Can't be both. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Totally unrelated but I just saw Notre Dame at 5 in both the AP and Coaches' polls to start the season and that feels like a massive overrating for a team with one known playmaker on either side of the ball and a first-year head coach. If the voters swapped us with USC down at 14/15, I'd have no issue with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it'll be interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let Twitter rage press them into doing the right thing. Sometimes I think even I don’t understand the extent to which these pro athletes get a free pass. And I’m already disturbed… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple days ago they were "nah all good over here we checked". Now its a 180. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they knew about the charges (and it sounds like they did), why draft him? The reality is, IMO, the moment they found out about this he shouldve been cut. The fact they didnt do that, imo, is a bad look. I get it, innocent until proven guilty, but forgive me, when someone claims a person committed this type of crime, i generally side with the victim until proven otherwise. Even in the Ben Roethlisberger situation, which was different circumstances but no less shameful. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not what Araiza said. Teams were apparently aware pre-draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was expecting someone to pick him in round 3 being a weapon like that and when he kept sliding I just attributed it to him being a punter. But it all makes sense now.
