T master Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Last season Beasley had his best season & has developed a great chemistry with Josh and was very dependable when needing to convert a 3rd down but this year he's not being targeted as much what ever that reason might be but once again this past week end we saw just how important and productive Beasley can be when targeted . Given all the talent the Bills have in the WR room one would think they would be unstoppable which most Bills fans feel they should be but no matter how good one receiver may be if there isn't chemistry between the QB & his weapons it could be not as productive for either one . Look at Julio with Matty Ice he was Matt's go to when he needed to make a play but in Tenn. although being a presence on the field for sure & a player you need to worry about when game planning he's not nearly as productive as he was given he chemistry that he had with his QB in ATL . I think Beasley should have a bigger role in the offense not only because he proved to be one of "The Guys" last year but i think he still is the year when targeted as much as he was a yr ago . There is a article that says he has been hot and cold this year but i think that is more to do about how many targets and in game reps he gets rather than anything else because when he's in the game the guy is money and i think as i said earlier he needs to be a bigger part of the game plan & i think not only the 3rd down conversions will go up but so will the TD's . https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2021/11/1/22757002/cole-beasley-is-feast-or-famine-for-buffalo-bills-offense-fantasy-football Forget the fantasy part just get him more involved in the game with a bigger snap count and the Bills along with the fantasy people will all be happier . 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsbackto81 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Cole's performance yesterday can not be understated. Practically all his catches were for 1st down and most were clutch 3rd and long conversions. Outside of the trick play pass attempt the man was ballin'.. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbillyfootballcoach Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Cole was the shot in the arm this team really needed. He cured the true illness with the offense yesterday. It was scientific how he outmaneuvered all the flawed schemes surrounding him. I heard many women in the stands asking what was going on and how we were suddenly winning and who was the golden haired hero?... their husbands all had the same answer... "A man". 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might Rather Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Was he being booed every time he caught the ball yesterday? I couldn't tell but it sure sounded like it on TV.

dollars 2 donuts Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) Beasely has 192 receptions in 37 regular season games for this team. A gawdy 5.2 grabs a game average over two and half seasons. 2019 - 67 2020 - 82 2021 - 43 Tied for 15th in receptions this year in a weirdly determined "down" year for him by some. I am not bringing up the other stuff about him, at all. And in sticking to the football side of things I will say that I was confounded by the simple "get rid of him, he's replaceable" mentality by some. In defending the player I believe I used the Ray Sheppard / Donald Audette "run them out of town" Sabres examples. It is perfectly fine as a fan to want someone off the team for a particular reason that is important to you. However, for the love of all get out, at least be reasonable and have open eyes in your evaluation of that player and to what level of player you are ridding yourself. Go Bills.

RyanC883 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 defenses simply can't cover all our receiving talent. If the OL gives Josh enough time, he'll find the open guy every time. Oh, and we were missing our 3rd best target (Knox), so our 3-4th best (Beasly) stepped up. We also have Gabe Davis. And just a few years ago, Davis would likely have been our best WR.

There were some morons on this Bills fan website called Buffalo Fanatics (I believe) that questioned whether the Bills should trade Cole Beasley at the deadline.

I gotta admit, the dude soured me with his anti-vax BS. Honestly, if you don’t wanna get it, fine, don’t get it, just realize you’re in the way of progress and also, don’t turn it into some kind of stupid debate or some hill to die on. Make your choice and shut up about it. That said, I can’t help but be a smart-a$$ about him sometimes. Like, maybe he makes a catch and gets tackled two yards before a first down. I’ll turn to my wife and say, “Know who would’ve gotten a first down? A vaccinated player!” Or when he makes a catch I like to sing, “He’s an (anti) vax man! Skibba dibba doodley bop” ya know, sung in the style of that old “I’m a scatman” song. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impose Your Will I think we tried to do that in the first half and we basically looked like dog****. We were running 10 personnel, using more WRs to make up for Knox being out. Its when we switched to 11 in the second half and kept in extra blockers we were able to give Allen more time in the pocket to let some of those crossers over the middle for Beasley to develop. We have a really strong team and its going to be anyone's guess as to who is going to shine this week. If I was a defensive coordinator it would drive me nuts that I need to respect the run out of 10, 11 personnel. I need to have at least 3-4 strong DB's to cover Sanders, Diggs, Beasley and Davis. Knox (and to a degree Sweeney) are effective safety valves for layups and dumpoffs. Allen is a threat to take off for chunks if you play tight man and lose contain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRic Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) News Flash: Diggs, Beasley, Sanders, Knox, Davis and even McKenzie are all important "cogs". A machine is a GREAT metaphor here, because all of those "cogs" work together to make the motor that is the passing offense run. Yesterday it was 100% Beasley, but you have to remember that his performance did not happen in a vacuum. What other players are doing on the field at the same time greatly impacts the performance of the individuals catching the ball. Play to play, game to game week to week. Without the threat of the other pass catchers and Allen out of the backfield, any one WR can be neutralized. With everyone doing their job, the sky is the limit. I for one am perfectly happy with Diggs, Beasley, Sanders, Knox, Davis, etc etc trading off big performances week to week. It's a team sport and it's the key to success.

TBBills Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) The cold parts has more to do with the Bills trying to force the run more this year. We have our first down getting WRs, if they run the ball less like they should Beasley will be getting more targets. Run in the playoffs if you want but in regular season just go full throttle and throw the ball. Edited November 2, 2021 by TBBills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
