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

He's been nothing but a backup so far. Yes we've seen him have good games but it always comes after Tomlinson has worn down the defense and playing with a huge lead. Has he ever been a starter? No. Has he ever carried the load for the whole season? No.
What has he done to be so sought after? He's another Matt Schaub. It's all about hype, has proven nothing to deserve all the love.
I'm not giving up a 2nd and a 3rd for "potential". Not after Rob Johnson.
I'm not saying he sucks. He could very well be the next Priest Holmes. But hell nobody knows. No reason to lust after him and throw multiple high picks away for him.
You could have sat here some years ago and started the same exact thread with backups at the time such as:
* Why the boner for Priest Holmes
* Why the boner for Larry Johnson.
You can either play or you can't. He will never carry the load for SD because they have the best player in football with LT.
You don't average 6.0 yards over 157 carries by accident.
He had TD RUNS of 83 and 73 yards.. when is the last time ANY Bill has done that?
Better YPG stats should be judged when your team is ahead and your opponent is playing the run... He averages 6.3 YPG then (64-403)..
He averages 9.8 YPG when SD was in their own red zone.. that's ridiculously sick.
There's a huge reason SD wont just give him away.. He's got sickening skills.
How could anyone say he's not worth a minimum 2nd rounder? He may be better than Peterson AND LYNCh, and at worse he's a 50x more sure thing than anyone in the PIttman, Irons, Hunt, Bush class.
He's built like a bowling ball at 5-10 240 and would seem to fit behind our suddenly huge OL. How often do you see a guy with that build as a teams primary kick returner ? Think speed. He's had a couple starts and played well.
If he could be our RB for a 2nd round pick, why frown on it ? Who's superior in Round 2, in this weak RB draft ? Unproven NFL talent.
I doubt we'll make the move anyhow but he's an interesting player.
Matt Schaub ? Who cares ? How about Brett Favre, that bum Atlanta dumped on Green Bay years back ?
I guess you can window dress anything to make your position look stronger.
I can't believe RJ was brought into a Michael Turner thread. Good grief, what a reach.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
******ed statement.

You just named players who were great in college and did NOTHING in the pros.. Turner is the exact opposite, who's proving it in the NFL .
I can go ANY position in football and say the same thing. Senseless.
Then again, its coming from a guy who thinks we should be drafting Leon Hall

I agree he is a solid player but what round was he drafted in? Whos to say Bush for example couldn't be just as good?

Turner is still young.. why would you want to take a chance on a college guy becoming a good pro, as opposed to a young player who's already is proving in the NFL what a lethal weapon he is?

Yeah, a guy who hasn't rushed for 1000 yards total in his 3 year career is "proven".
A Train has 2 seasons better than Turner's whole career.
