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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Sounds like the Chiefs are rebuilding and he is open to a trade.
Since we'd be taking on his big salary I can't imagine the asking price
to be that high. I'd offer them a 3rd & 4th.
TE would have a field day throwing over the middle to TG.
Re: We should trade for Tony Gonzalez this offseason
I wouldn't give up that much for him. How many years do you think he really has left?
"'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"
Re: We should trade for Tony Gonzalez this offseason
This FO seems really opposed to shelling out for aging players, and it would cost a lot to get Gonzales here. It would be nice, but I just don't see it happening. Marv only opens the checkbook for guys who are mid-career. I'm not commenting on whether that's good or bad here, but it's how it is and it most likely means we arent' getting Gonzales.

I'd rather throw a lot of money at Dallas Clark.
Id give up a 1st rounder for him!
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Baltimore has more weapons on offense than we ever had, if you put Marshawn on Baltimore's team I guarantee you that he would've matched McGahee's #'s or better. Baltimore has a much better OL than people give them credit for, just look at how many runs McGahee broke that were 20+ or more, he has less than anybody in the top 7 and he also has a nice 4 fumbles in comparison to Lynch's 1 fumble. That 3rd round pick got us Trent Edwards a possible franchise QB that I'm sure Baltimore would LOVE to have right now. I forget the exact extremities of the deal but I'm sure that we have another what is it, 3rd round pick this year because of Baltimore as well? They got smoked.

Not looking at what we got (trent) for that pick. But we did not rob them blind with 2 3rds.
Willis almost singlehandedly carried that O when McNair was playing like a HS qb. Again, Willis has 43 receptions, (Evans has 51) to go with his rushing yards.
Willis was missused here as is Lynch thanks to Fairchild.
Back to topic, TG would instantly give Trent a tartget in the redzone and in the slot. Would a 3rd rd. TE do the same? Maybe in 2-3 years. I would consider a 3rd.
Re: We should trade for Tony Gonzalez this offseason
i like that this year was the push of youth. and for themost part, youth won games for us. not just trent, but lynch, and the countless D men who played. i want veterans to lead this team who ahve been with this team. The ones who've seen the worst.
No doubt the bills will be better next year, but no way will someone at the end of their career try to win the big game with buffalo. That's what the Patriots are for. The Bills are still2 years away from being legitamate. but that legitamacy will come through more drafts and more guys they can mold to their liking.
