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!

Peters held out all pre-season, turning up one day before the opening game, gave up 11.5 sacks and was flagged 8 times. Compare that to Bruce Smith who often failed to turn up to training camp but at least was professional enough to keep in shape and be an absolute beast on the field when he did.
You pay for performance, not for petulance. End of story.
I love how brainwashed the front office has you guys.
So you are saying that not paying him was a good move? Just making sure I have this right.
Okay explain to me how this move made us better?
This o-line just lost the entire left side and people are acting like it's not a big deal.
Furthermore, you do understand that we now have to use our 11th pick, not to improve the team, but fill the hole vacated by Peters with a player that most likely will not be his equal.

13.5 million with the cash that is guaranteed, a year, is not what they wanted to pay for Jason. They traded him, we have to move on and deal with it. And, for the sake of discussion, would you be willing to call yourself out should Peters not do well in Philly?

Absolutely I would call myself out and I have. I thought that Losman just needed time to develop and I was questioing myself before the 2007 season began. Ask Mikey.
Where are you getting 13.5 million a year? 24 million is guaranteed and it's 60 million over 6 years.

Just so you know I took the same abuse for Schobel last year and I got lambasted for those threads as well? How did that turn out?
The funny part is that none of the people that are ripping me now will have the balls to come back at the end of next season.
Where are the people that ripped on me about Schobel?? CASDF, Justa, and a zillion others?
Did you really expect him to sign for 8 million a year? Now the front office get's a pass for an offer that everyone here knew he wouldn't accept?
As I said before, ignoring reality doesn't make you a better fan.
It's okay to pay Schobel 8 million a year who sucks but it's not okay to pay Peters who arguably is coming into his prime.
I love the counter argumnets...oh wait..there are none.
Dude, I'm pissed that we got rid of Peters, but what's the point of *****ing about it?
I challenge you to find one person who is satisfied with how much we are paying Schobel. However, I was happy when we extended him a few years back.
Ignoring reality has no effect on how much of a fan you are. If you like how the Bills operate, or how they play, or where they play, then follow them and be happy. If you don't, then you should be a fan of another team.
