Shocking - another NFL team willing to hold it's state and local taxpayers hostage if they want to keep the team around.
Pegulas are shady. All owners ask for public help which is wrong IMO but Pegulas are asking for 100% public funded stadium for over a billion dollars. That's unprecedented and they can kick rocks Austin Bills can play in the AFC South. Move the Colts to the AFC North and give us the Ravens. AFC East would resemble the AL East with NY, Boston, Baltimore & Miami
Empty threat. Austin city council has said they haven’t heard anything about the bills wanting to move there.
I can see the Bills continuing to renovate the RALPH (will always be that to me) in the mold of Kansas City Arrowhead Stadium. The two cities are similar in many ways and the facilities themselves were built around the same period of time (72 &73). It's a mistake for the Bills and empty threats if you ask me.

Yeah this sounds like a bargaining tactic. Plus any owner that wants to move their team to Texas would have to perform voluntary and public fellatio on Jerry Jones since he basically owns the pro football market for the state.
The Bills may be a division rival of ours. But they have an awesome fan base with diehard crazy fans. A super passionate fan base. They'll take their shirts off in -10 degree weather just for an opportunity to root for their favorite team. And cheer for a Franchise who's never once gave them a reason to celebrate (0 SBs). I'd be heartbroken for them. If our NY Jets ever became the Texas Jets I'd quit NFL Football forever. I wouldn't even want to watch NCAA football anymore. I don't wish that upon a fan base at least not Buffalo's.
Cole "Karen" Beasley bout to have another melt down hahahaha you got their starting left tackle on local TV today, literally, talking about how his covid bout scared him half to death and imploring people to get vaxxed and follow guidelines. then Karen Beasley in his own locker room, thinks its a hoax and does whatever he wants. Wait til the season starts and there's some players that have to sit out due to covid, the Bills lose those games. That locker room could blow up
For the unification of that locker room, the Bills should cut Beasley. Let him go be a martyr on his own time. They have Super Bowl aspirations. Solid player and all but it seems like he's growing to end up not being worth it.
Off the field this is probably the best time for them to get the new stadium issues resolved. With new NY Governor Kathy Hochul a Buffalo native and Bills fan this should help the organization cut thru all "red tape" and political BS to get shovels in the ground. The Isles owners got Cuomo on board for them and look how quickly UPS arena got built.
You guys realize that there are over 200 players currently refusing the vaccine, and not just Beasley right? He is not dividing the locker room, he is speaking up for others. He was one of several Bills who got sent home for being unvaccinated but were reported in "close contact" to a vaccinated, yet infected coach. The vaccinated guy was the only one with the virus. Maybe that has something to do with the unvaccinated getting tested every day and the vaccinated getting tested every 2 weeks. These vaccines don't provide immunity so there is no reason for separate transmission rules.
I hope they cut him because he looks like a shrunken dehydrated version of Prince Adam from the 80's He-Man cartoons.
blah blah blah. Beasley ain’t the only unvaccinated guy, obviously. But he’s the only player to publicly say so much dumbass shit about it. He is selfishly ignoring the rules and putting himself above the team. People like that deserve criticism It was self inflicted too. He coulda kept his confused and concussed mouth shut, but he didn’t. He put a target on his own back, he’s a grown man and will live with the consequences
Wow, nice that you are wishing potential death on other people and their families because they play on a football team you don’t like. You seem like a quality individual
No vaccine for any virus has ever claimed it provides 100% immunity - why create such a red herring? The scientific data, however shows that those fully vaccinated have a far lower rate of transmission of the Covid virus. Vaccines have 71% effectiveness against transmission The researchers looked at 113,582 adult index cases and 253,168 close contacts of all ages; 5,394 fell under both categories. (A close contact was also classified as an index case when they tested positive.) Less than 1% (0.5%) of index cases were fully vaccinated, while 1.8% were partially vaccinated. For close contacts, 2.1% of were fully vaccinated and 1.7% were partially vaccinated. The secondary attack rate was 31% for household members exposed to unvaccinated index patients but 11% if the index patient was fully vaccinated, making the adjusted vaccine effectiveness against transmission (aVET) 71% (95% confidence interval [CI], 63% to 77%). By vaccine type, VET was estimated to be 58% for the AstraZeneca/Oxford vaccine, 70% for Pfizer/BioNTech, 88% for Moderna, and 77% for Johnson & Johnson. Partial vaccination only resulted in an aVET between 15% and 51%. Study ties COVID vaccines to lower transmission rates | CIDRAP (umn.edu)
The bold is what I believe was his (Beasley) gripe with the entire set of rules that the NFL and NFLPA put forward. How long was the positive guy walking around the facility without a mask? Saw reports that the they want to drop the vaccinated guys from 2 weeks to 1 week on how often they need to be tested.
