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

One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
Trent has a chance to grab the starting position over the next few weeks. If he comes out and smokes the jets and the boys he'll never leave the spot. Trent Green went down and Kurt Warner came in and never left, looking at that we know Fairchild's MO.
Re: One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
I hope Trent does great, I hope anybody does great!
Edwards will really have to shine, to keep the #1 job.
And if he can't do it against the Jets, then I think JP will be back when ready.
Edwards is playing the MNF game, what a stage to win it or lose it.
If he can get that O scoring points, he'll be the man, if he plays like a rookie,
then we'll see him a little later, with a little more experience under his belt.
GO BILLS!

Once again....Steve Fairchild was with the Bills when this happened. Mike Martz was the Rams offensive coordinator and Dick Vermiel was their headcoach. It's time to realize there are very few things you can learn about Fairchild by looking at the Rams.

Looking at successes from other franchises and the people that he trained with and knows Fairchild will not stray to far. The coaching apples never falls to far from the tree.
Re: One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
You guys keep saying how great Billicheat is as a coach...even he says JP is better. He said Edwards is just a pocket passer, whereas JP is a dangerous athlete who can get out of trouble on his own. Kinda throws that theory out that NE39 has about Wilfork not wanting to hurt JP.
I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!

Thats true that i could happen, and im sure Trent is taking it very serious, but remember the Rams had alot more weapons than the Bills do..
I think the weapons are similar if they just start playing like they can. Evans, Parrish, Reed and Lynch are great weapons, not to mention an OL that is blocking well. Edwards is coming into a MUCH better situation than JP did when he first got here so I like his chances. His development shouldnt be hindered by those around him. I just wish we had a Shockey or Witten like Romo and Manning have. But its fine we have enough to get the job done.

Did you ever think BB might be saying that because he would rather play against JP than a more experienced Edwards?? BB does nothing but help his own fat ass, just remember that.

JP is a dangerous athlete, but the Bills never use him as such. It's incredibly frustrating to play against a scrambling QB so I don't know why Fairchild insists on handcuffing JP. Oh well- it's irrelevant for the next couple weeks anyway.
Re: One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
Keep in mind, tho, that Billicheat is often full of crap. For example, when he said it was really important to watch a lot of game film for the game against Buffalo...

Re: One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
Trent is a crappy version of losman,, slower, less arm strength,, he might have more pose in the pocket,, but whn u only have a sec to throw its prb btr to run around like JP does

yeah that is why Losman has had so much success LOL
Re: One might safely assume Edwards knows the door is open..
Most of JP's problem this year is NOT that he doesn't have time to throw. The pass blocking has not been all that bad.
