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!
"Jauron's homecoming could be just what the Lions need"
There are layers of problems when a sports team has yet to win a game. One of those is schedule watching. When all else fails, find a bigger loser than you are. The theory is that you can't win against the obviously better teams, so find a team that seems to be worse. Welcome to the party, Buffalo Bills.
What a knob. I don't think any team 0-5 should be pointing out others as a 'bigger loser'.
Damn, I hope we run the Lions ragged this Sunday.

Re: "Jauron's homecoming could be just what the Lions need"
The Bears beat the Bills worse than they beat the Lions. Therefore, the Lions are better than the Bills. There's only one flaw with that kind of reasoning. It has no basis in reality. Fans try to use it all the time, but matchups, injuries, mistakes, etc. mean you can never extrapolate game results to make game predictions like that. That's the first time I've ever seen a sports columnist try to legitimize that kind of reasoning. He did back off from it later, and didn't actually make a prediction, but he said enough to make me dislike him. How can you do that when you're 0-5?
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
Re: "Jauron's homecoming could be just what the Lions need"
I knew it. It took one loss for media to be fickle minded all over again. Screw media. I've never seen them so wrong about so many things before. Even with all the info they have, they're no better than mb posters.
Re: "Jauron's homecoming could be just what the Lions need"
Last Sunday, the Bills got drilled by the Bears in Chicago. They lost worse than the Lions lost at Soldier Field in Week 2 of this NFL season. Obvious conclusion is that the Lions can beat Buffalo this Sunday at Ford Field.
Re: "Jauron's homecoming could be just what the Lions need"
Wow! I hope the Bills are reading all of this respect that they arent getting...this is ****ing insane! This Bills team is much better than the ****ing Detroit Lions. And the Lions have tons of injuries!

I am about this game.
Me too. I've had a bad feeling about it all week. Probably just because I think Detroit is due for a win. If Losman's on, though, Buffalo can win big.
Nonetheless, the Bills a bigger loser than the Lions? The Lions are probably the worst franchise in the NFL. They've won, like, one playoff game in the last 60 years. And they're starting the season winless -- which doesn't surprise me given their history.

While historically I agree (mostly because of the Levy era), the Bills are not as far apart from the Lions as some people think. Granted the Lions definitely suck worse, but I'm not gonna throw stones in a glass house just yet.
