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 thing is for sure, regardless of what the fans think it is obvious they are ok with fielding basically the same team as last year minus doc, and greer. fitz at most may get a couple snaps. and no rookie DE is coming in and going to fix our pass rush. but hey we did start 5-0 didnt we?
I am really disappointed with the lack of movement. I said it before and I'll say it again. The Bills needed to be aggressive in free agency to set up the draft and possibly help make a playoff run, but unless they pull off a major trade AND sign a C and G, I am opted to anoint this as a total set back.
I really like this move. & i admit i am taken by total surprise..
-The btching & moaning i just read in several threads about how much bigger his is then mine/ours etc is really annoying. Is this something with my aging & the fanbase being so young? or is it just,just.
oye, missed a sentence---
--I agree with RCD333, that our #2/Fitz will start atleast 1 game. Esp as we enter the winter.

have to agree, you cant take a team that had the second half we did and just rely on a single draft class to save the coaches job and get us to the playoffs. you would think jauron would really be pushing here. and even if we bring a hangartner in, he has never been a full time center against a prodominanty 3-4 schedule. there is work to be done, but i have gotten most of my frustrations out on this board today, and there is alot of free agents left, alot of good ones, lets see what happens over the next 2-3 days, but fitz and a backup center with potential wont fix anything.

We started 4-0 and why can't a rookie come in here and solve the pass rush problem? I think a rookie DE can come in here and get 8 sacks don't you think? 4 sacks was the high last year so if we get double that from a rook i would consider that a successful year for him. GO BILLS
There was talk of the Bills possibly bringing in a veteran to challenge Trent Edwards, but this signing puts an end to that talk. The noodle-armed Fitzpatrick is 100 percent backup material and is no threat to Edwards' job.

what rookie DE can get 8 sacks in a 4-3 in this draft?? make sure you have your facts straight when you answer this and dont just look at mcshay and kipers big boards. there is maybe 1 pass rusher than can possibly come in and start IN A 4-3 and be dominant enough (and if your getting 8 sacks as a rookie you are dominant) to pull that off and he'll be gone before the top 10 are done, you have to put into consideration that they wont be standing up and rushing, they will have to do it putting they're hand down against jake long(pro bowler) and justin smiley, matt light(pro bowler) and logan mankins, and debrick fergueson and alan faneca(pro bowler). its hard to be a pass rusher in our division, esecially a rookie one.
then again, anything better than Fitz would end up starting over trent.
Yikes. we're screwed. this guy has less experience than JP. What makes Dick think Fitz has seen enough defenses thrown at him to overcome teams in the AFCE? He doesn't have enough experience to mentor trent. I guess Turk was worried any qb that has experience would tell him to go fly a kite

I liked the Fitzpatrick signing.
