Is he trolling Tom with that statement?

 

I had that thought myself

He got chewed out by Brady two weeks in a row.

 

Cant wait to hear the Brady diss track.

 

did he seriously?  I didn't notice him in the game at all, even though I watched, so....

Told you guys, love Beasley but he's cooked.

 

Thank you for your awe-inspiring prediction!

You were the only person here who was able to see the signs of his demise because they were so well-hidden from the rest of us.

I doubly appreciate your willingness to remind us of your singular greatness as we may have forgotten that you alone could tell that Beasley had lost a step.

I'm sure we all look forward to more of your keen insights and follow up I told you so's. :thumbsup:

In all seriousness, the Beasley, Morse and Mongo signings in the summer of 2019 were key moments in turning this franchise around.

 

Yup.  Beasley was a big contributor in our turn around. He just doesnt have it anymore.  Father time gets everyone.  Everyone except Brady who looks like he will still play when he is nothing more than a skull.

Yeah, first game was after Tom hit him on 3rd and 7 and he went down at 5 yards. The next week was after a miscue along the lines of Bease broke right and Tom threw left. I think these were before the Chiefs game. Packers and Saints.

 

I dont really think it was the reason he left. I'm sure it had more to do with Bucs getting guys back, and they were going to release him anyways. But it was entertaining to see two angry douches arguing while it lasted.

Won't have to hear anymore about not enough 'YAC' thanks to his backup career!

YAC came up for discussion with Sal on WGR radio just this morning, mentioned and dwelled on the fact that YAC includes yards gained from behind LoS, which pads the league-leader (a RB - Austin Ekeler - 6-49 -  1 TD last game) stats somewhat, approx 50 yards IIRC ?  so if a RB has a phat YAC factor this into the equation somewhat...

Only active for two games, Pack and KC.

 

He was signed to PS and I thought, went back on PS after each game anyway

Goodbye GIF

 Did anyone else see Brady snap at Beasley and wave him off when he walked up to him while he was reviewing plays? 😂

 

Apparently yes

 

 

I thought, when it was announced that he was signing there, that it might not be a great match.  My understanding is that Brady is well-known to want his receivers to run exact, predictable routes - and to fight for the YAC.  "Get Open, Catch the Ball" doesn't fly with Tampa Tommy.

Beasley retired two weeks after joining Tom Brady

 

 “He is ready to be with his family after playing in 11 seasons and it’s time to be a full-time dad and husband,” Turner said. (It’s hard not to wonder whether that message will register with the team’s starting quarterback.)”

He alluded to a few things but I wouldnt classify it as a bunch of crap.  It was mostly around the COVID Protocols and the front office not having his back more.

 

Good player for us, and will never forget the guy playing on a broken leg.  Despite the COVID stuff, it was obvious his skills were starting to diminish.   Glad he gets to spend time with his wife and kids.  Never a bad thing to be a 33 year old retired multimillionaire.

Beas will always be beloved in Buffalo.  What he meant to the team and helping Josh turn into the cyborg superstar he is today.  That doesn't happen without veterans like Smoke, Manny & Rock a Bye Beasley.  I know the whole covid situation got a little salty, but as a vaccinated person, he had every right to his own decision.

Good for him. I couldn’t disagree more with him regarding his COVID stuff and his distractions around that, but he was a great Buffalo Bill and was instrumental in the turnaround. He played injured and was clutch in so many moments when it was needed. Well deserved retirement.

Exactly... On all fronts.

That’s a shame,

I disagreed with his stance on getting vaccinated, but that aside, he was a terrific Bill.  I was stunned when he first signed as a free agent, not believing he'd chose the Bills over Dallas, but he was a great contributor all the while he was in Buffalo.  At the end of 2020, he was playing with a cracked bone in his leg and gutted it out.  

Enjoy retirement.

I wonder if the Bucs were going to release him and gave him the option of retirement to save face.

 

Have a feeling that's exactly what happened. Watching him play for the Bucs confirmed to me what I already suspected watching him last season and seeing no one want to give him a spot on their 53 this offseason - he was done.

Cole had a chance to play with New England and Mr Brady and turned them down to play with Josh Allen. He’s always part of the Bills and I’ll tell you I have yet to see a receiver step forward to replace him. Over 80 catches and basically Josh’s safety valve haven’t been so easy to replace.
