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!
Just found out that Favre said he WOULD accept a trade to the jets and tampa, and coincidentally the jets just cancelled their practice today with no reason given.
Don't know what that means, but it sounds like something could be brewing? This info comes via WGR by the way.
If Favre goes to the Jets and Peters doesn't play, we'll be 2-4 in the division.
agreed...The bills just need to ****ing sign peters already..its not like we can bluff and act like we dont need him..that is rediculous..But if the jets get favre, we're screwed.
Keep in mind this is a Jet's defense that went out and got Kris Jenkins to anchor their DL, very much like we did with Stroud. They also signed Calvin Pace, who had 6.5 sacks at LB last year. Of course, they already have Kerry Rhodes, perhaps the most underated player in the entire NFL. Darrelle Reevis looks like a lockdown corner already, and I dont even know where to start with David Harris; that dude is just a flat-out beast. Favre might not play as well as he did last year, but even at his worst he's far better than Pennington or Clemens. There's no way he doesnt make that offense signficantly better if he lands there, and the defense is already just about good enough. Anyone who dismisses the Jets as a threat to us if they land Favre is laughable to say the least.
Bring it. Favre will make that team better for what? a year or two? Then they're back in the same boat.
If we can't beat Favre w/ the Washington Wizards...er...NY Jets then we don't deserve to be talking about playoffs this year. Tougher competition within the division is only going to make our team stronger.

we can bluff.. because Peters will lose millions
Seriously does anyone believe for a single second that Peters is going to to cut off his own financial arm.
I beleive he will get a raise, but not until he shows up and starts behaving like a man who is dedicated to the team that is going to shell out 50 million.
and Farve to the Jets is extremely overrated.. does anyone really beleive he will walk into NY and just light it up. he'l struggle and wish he stayed retired IMO. It takes time ot develope team chemistry and learn a completely different offensive system.
LMAO at the Farve to NYJ doom and gloom cast LMFAO

Let me ask you a simple yes or no question.
Are the jets better with favre at QB than they are with Pennington or clements? Yes, or no. If your answer is no, I'd LOVE to hear your explanation how.
As Bills fans hoping for the best, lets hope he ends up in Tampa or somewhere other than NY.
I love complete over reactions to possible rumors coming out of basically nowhere. Always good for a laugh.
True.> but you dont find it odd the jets cancelled practice today without giving a reason, and Favre says that he would accept a deal to NY when previous reports said he wasn't interested?
It could all be hearsay and just a rumor, but the two things happening today are not rumors, they are facts.
The Jets will be better with Favre, but not right away. Favre's been running WCO all his career. Learning this new offense in NY will take some time. Unfortunately we don't play the Jets until week 9, by that time Favre should be humming along in that system.

The New York Jets have announced that both practices set for Monday, July 28 have been canceled.
No reason was given for the decision to pull the plug on the 8:45 a.m. EDT and 5:45 p.m. EDT sessions.
Practice resumes on Tuesday, with two sessions.
Meanwhile, the players will get an unexpected day off, fairly early in the training-camp process.
