"An NFL source tells me the Bills are more committed than ever to their hard-line stance on Peters. They're a small-market team that can't afford to let their players hold them hostage, and they're learning they might not be that bad without him."

Good! He's under contract, he should be playing..but considering he's a baby an wants more money..good im glad, let that fat waste of life just sit an rot..get rid of him, trade him, do something..all this is doing is just showing he's not a team player an just cares about money..get someone who's actually committed to play with the buffalo bills..not some scrub who we actually made..wasn't he an undrafted TE?

If a left tackle wants a new contract but no one hears it. Does it really want a new contract?

seriously? if jason peters is a "scrub" then the bills are screwed because pretty much every player on our team is worse than him talent wise.

Good. Until he actually shows up and does something he shouldn't get a penny.

We have our first good series on offense in over a year and now all the sudden we're fine without Peters? Wow; this team will never win until we get an owner who is dedicated to doing what it takes to win.

Try not showing up at your job. Don't tell your management why you're not showing up. Just sit around and wait for them to contact you and offer you more money. See how far that gets you.

If we are okay without Peters than this board has learned nothing?

That's the way it works in the NFL and it has worked for players in the past.

Are you surprised? Most of the people here are ok with a 7-9 season, they are ok with the fact that we haven't made the playoffs in damn near a decade. Who cares if the team is good as long as they stay in Buffalo right? For them 0-16 is just as good as 16-0.

Like I have been saying since day 1...I'd love to see some of these guys pull this stunt with their employer.

Not after the guy gets injured
Not after the guy has offseason surgery
Not after the guy fails to return calls
Not after the guy refuses to call his teammates.
Not after his original contract was voluntarily extended by the team


Show me where it has ever happened.

How many NFL players do you know? If you knew any at all you'd know that he NFL does not work like your normal every day job. If it did 3/4th's of the players would have been fired a long time ago. So quit trying to compare it to what you do because they are not the same.

Re: Bills' Peters Becoming a Myth?

Not after the guy gets injured
And? There are lots of players who get injured and want a new deal.
Not after the guy has offseason surgery
Your point?
Not after the guy fails to return calls
Are you sure about that?
Not after the guy refuses to call his teammates.
Are you sure about that?
Not after his original contract was voluntarily extended by the team
And? He has clearly out played his contract.

Show me where it has ever happened.

You were probably one of those people who didn't think anything of it when Ralph let Pat Williams walk weren't you? "Who needs elite talent? We'll just draft another one because elite talent just grows on trees."
