Bills safeties Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde got mad at a reporter during Monday’s presser following a 14-10 loss to the Patriots.
After losing a game in which the Patriots threw the ball only three times and rushed for over 200 yards, WIVB reporter Jerry Sullivan asked the two Bills if they were “embarrassed.”
“I mean, what kind of question is that?” Poyer responded.
“What are we doing, bro?” Hyde jumped in. “That’s funny. “We’ll remember that. I’ll remember that.”
While exiting the presser, Poyer turned back to Sullivan to say, “It’s respect. It’s all about respect. I come here every week and answer your questions truthfully, honestly. I appreciate you guys. Don’t do that. Don’t do that.”
Sullivan asked a trap question, a question with only one answer. The safeties were not going to say they were “not embarrassed” and send a message to the locker room they were not torn up about a late-season divisional loss.
So Sullivan clearly wanted Poyer and Hyde to admit they were embarrassed. It’s as if Sullivan already drafted the headline “Patriots ‘Embarrassed’ the Bills” and needed confirmation to put quotes around the word “Embarrassed.”

It was a stupid question so I’m glad the Bills players called him out.
Another non athlete asking a stupid ass question. Imagine that
Soft ass black boys. Always offended cause of their inferiority complex.
Get your shine box boy.
Shine box? Is that’s the best wannabe hard white boy response you got . Cmon Dylan Roof, you can do better than that Kiddie Porn maker and future pediphille. #Epstein
I’ll say it again. Sports media members are some of the worst people on the planet. Smug and dumb is a nice way to put it.
Yawn.
I almost always root for the players over the media.
The media folks couldn’t handle it if their job performance were published in the box score and dissected on film.
Good for the players.
I would have asked if they were embarrassed to be in a profession with lower regard than whores and drug dealers.
Stupid questions get stupid answers.
