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

So... does anyone think BB.com deflated JP's stats on purpose?
Re: So... does anyone think BB.com deflated JP's stats on purpose?
Draz, evol, and Yardrat- yall get :thumbsup:. I mean, even if you count 1 drive in the Pats game as a whole game (which they do), and the 1 and 1/3 quarters vs the Jets as a whole game, then he played 8. Or, played IN 8.
That is so strange. I just wanted to share that. Anyone else care to comment?

Re: So... does anyone think BB.com deflated JP's stats on purpose?
Who cares? JP sucks and is the backup. The last thing we want to see is JP on the field this year. If JP sees action this year it means either Trent sucked or Trent was injuried. As Bills fans we should hope Trent succeeds and stays healthy.
Re: So... does anyone think BB.com deflated JP's stats on purpose?
There is no question, regardless of how you slice and dice it, that JP's stats were superior to Trent's. Except in the won-loss column, even if you use a baseball approach. I'm not trying to be Wys, but if you throw out the two horrible weather games, their stats would be closer, and Trent's won-loss record would be even better.
But really, the Bills are basing their confidence in Trent on his poise, pocket presence and awareness. He seemed to have it as a rookie, where JP was still struggling in his 4th season. And recognizing that Trent was a rookie, I don't think the Bills are nearly as interested in stats as we are.
I believe the Bills like Trent's mental ability to play QB better than JP's, and that's how they have made their decision. We can argue stats all day, and it won't really make a difference.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
Re: So... does anyone think BB.com deflated JP's stats on purpose?
The one stat that worries me in the whole list is the fact that George Wilson put the ball in the end zone more times than the combined total for all WR not named Lee Evans.
Hardy needs to hit the ground running from week 1, and that's a lot of pressure for a rookie.
