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!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

4rth and goal at the one. We run on first. Pass for a loss back to the 7. The pass two more straight times. If you can't run the ball in from the one, or two for that matter, on 3-4 plays, the coaches need to get their act together. The play calling at the point was atrocious.
When we talk about records, 6-10, 7-9, 8-8, 5-11. It's stupidity like this that will gt a coaches fired regardless of the record.
How can you say coaching cost us the game. It is just pre season and this is the time to work on the 4th down conversions, and other tricky plays like that.
GW just said they wanted to get all things worked out.
When I die, please don't let my wife sell my camera equipment for what I told her I paid for it.

You run the ball 4 times from the one, and hang your head if you don't score in embarresment. Then you begin to figure out why you can't gain one yard on four running plays.
Like I said before, this offensive line can't get in done in the crunch. Welcome to your season. Nor can the defensive line. Next year we will. This year is going to be better, but we're not ready yet to compete for any title.
You are right about not being ready to compete this season. Not many of us on ANY boards feel that way, just the over optimistic.
An 8-8 season is a great step in the direction towards a title.
Some have become a little too eager for this season and think it will THE season, more of us a a little realistic in knowing we still have a long way to go.

and who said we were ready to compete. If you thought so you were fooling yourself buffarama. This is a YOUNG team with lots of NEW faces. I would say this even if they brought in Sam adams. Don't get to high yet,wait a year!
In the regular season, I'd completely agree with you 'rama. However, in preseason I'll give the coaches the benefit of the doubt that they wanted to experiment.
I feel a lot better about the Bils' play in this game than vs. Cincinnati. Who knows what the result would have been if the Bills first unit faced the Minnesota first unit in that goal line stand. It's preseason. The coaches want to find out if any of those third stringers can play. If I remember, Pucillo played center and Conaty left guard on that series. I have no idea, listening to the radio, who the tackles were. If any of them besides Conaty (and Conaty would be at center instead of guard) have to play any length of time during the regular season the Bills are doomed.
After tonight, I'm more optimistic the Bills will be able to run the ball this season. As far as stopping the run we're gonna have to see if adding Price, and hopefully Ahanotu will make a difference. I think the Bills may be in some high scoring games this year.
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.
First of all they ran on second and were stuffed for a 5 yard loss. That was not a pass. If they were going to pass it should have been play action on 1rst or 2nd. It really did not matter.
All the guys that were on the field than will not be on this team anyway
