All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Appreciate this ..... 37 friggin 1st downs damn !!!!!!!
“It breaks your heart when someone leaves and you don’t know why.”
"It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you" Former President Donald Trump early Thursday touted the results of a new NPR/PBSNewsHour/Marist pollshowing him ahead of President Joe Biden by 8 percentage points among independents.
The only way to argue that is to not read the rest of my post.
Besides that, football is a team sport and being a teammate on and off the field matters.
Nice try, though.
Looking at TacklingDummy’s stats, he sure didn’t mess with team chemistry, nice try though.
I have seen the pro-vax folks on this site showing that their political ideology has made them dislike Beasley. Before that almost everyone loved him and his play. Maybe he shouldn’t have been so vocal but there is still that 1st amendment thing.
Politics shouldn’t be the reason to keep or cut someone. If that was the cast, no club would be able to field a team in any sport!

Beasley has a big cap number if resigned. Through all the noise he still played hard but you cannot pay everybody
The BIlls scored something like 10 fewer points this year than at the same time last year. They have a few more passing yards. than at this time last year.
If there is a difference, it is probably turnovers, esp. redzone INTs. Beasley has nothing do to with the ints, either way.
Firstly, the only ones that make this a political discussion are the ones who disagree with his decision. Most people who support beasely, just support him. They aren't facinated in him like the people who wanted players to be forces to be vaccinated.
2nd, I dont really care if mckenzies stats are better. Its about how Beasely opened things up in our offense. I dont think mckenzies stats would be much worse even if beasely played. I just think beasely would get those 5 catches, 40-50 yds, and be reliable on 3rd down. He wouldve kept allen at 60% cpt this year and helped keep the LBs inside instead of now how they shade to the sidelines now to tighten windows. We run outside in instead of inside out. When a QB drops back, he looks down the center of the defense at the safeties, which gives him an idea of coverage. Beasely would always get in his line of site so if allen didnt like how the defense was playing, he always had 5-6 yds available to him. When your looking outside post snap, your relying on your receivers to run their routes perfect and if they dont, the structure is immediately off and that's when allens running around for his life
With allens arm strength and Diggs ability to get open, allen was able to read Beasley and move to Diggs without being affected by timing.
Mckenzie still hasnt figured out leverage and how to get open fast. Most of his catches are outside the structure of the offense. So the middle of the field is never available to allen

I didn't make this political.
This discussion, if you notice, is about whether the offensive struggles are because Beasley is gone.
I made several more points against that idea than just his controversial stance on COVID.
You can tell who is really thinking about the politics by the responses to my post. They ignore every other part of it.

I thought I read in your post this sentence. “ The political ideology of most of the Beasley supporters is skewing the reality of the issue with the offense.”
Wasn’t that you or was I mistaken?
I think the lack of a good slot guy like Beasley was is hurting this offense. I also said that he couldn’t cone back to Buffalo because both sides burned bridges. Would I love the Beasley we had in his prime , absolutely! Just not going to happen.
As far as COVID , come on. There were many Bills that got the shot that got covid, BTW getting the shot was initially was supposed to prevent us from getting it. Anyway when players went on the covid list that got the shot, nobody here said anything. As soon as Beasley did, people were screaming that he was going to kill our chances. Really? The guy that didn’t get the shot that was supposed to protect us from getting covid were pissed because the guy that did get the shot was going to give everyone that got the preventative shot covid! That’s what happened.
Here’s the point, politics should not be part of any sports. There are people on every team that are pro or anti:
Gun
Abortion
LGBT
National Healthcare
Hunting and on and on, if political crap gets involved sports are over because you wouldn’t be able to put a team together.
The Bills blew threw the schedule until the bye, without Beasley, they struggled in games last year, with Beasley.
Love the dude as a player, but he became erratic. McBeane has built a team first culture. You don't see disruptions, team first, shut up do your job, any problems it's in house.
Beasley went outside the lines. This season, he didn't want to continue his career. Nothing "political" about it.
I personally feel his Covid stance was stupid. He was escared of a shot and entangled in debunked conspiracy. That's his right, along with the right of everyone who let Covid breed and kill people, because they were escared of vax, like no one has ever had one for one thing or another. But if he was a pro about it, I'd never have known or cared.
They did fine without him before the bye. There's something else going on. If they need dumpoff receivers, they have them to use.
