    Thanks for the Class Act Bills

    I didn't get a chance to see the game, so I am catching part of it now on the NFL network.

    I noticed when the Redskins came up with only 10 players to honor their friend, what the Bills did.

    Certain other teams (cough-pats-cough) would have probably audibled to a pass on that side. Bills came out and just ran their play. Sure, it was a bigger play because of 10 men... but it was the R.skins decision.

    Thanks for staying classy and not making them pay for showing some respect.

      I heard it was accidental..Jauron said he didn't know there was 10.

      But, thanks!

          Funny how both Dick and Joe claim to not know there were 10 when they had been reporting it for several days prior to the game that they were doing it

                His press conference on bb.com
                I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
                "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
                You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
                It was all
                true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
                He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
                mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                      I agree with jamze Id prefer we taken a knee, or that Gibbs and DJ got together to work something out like we take a delay of game penalty which they then decline. But "apparently" neither coach knew anything about the whole thing, so I guess the fans do sometimes know more than the coaches

                        As we all know, or at least think we know, that the first 10 plays of a game are scripted. What if the first play of the game, assuming Dick was being sincere and didn't know there were only 10, was a bomb and the Bills scored a TD. Is that not being classy if the first play of the game was already called before the kickoff?

                          no way you take a knee there. thoroughly disrespectful. a running play is completely appropriate

                            How is a knee disrespectful?

                            The honorable thing to do would of had the NFL step in and have both teams stand lined up in silence for the entire play clock have run down and have the Skins decline the penalty.

                              If they have time to read rumors in the press and visit message boards, I'd say their coaching duties are a bit limited.
