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!

I love the Bills, good or bad. Of course, like my kids, I love them more when they are good.
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?
I am aware that quite a few things have to go right but I don't think it is as many things as people are making it out to be.
IMO it completely hinges on two things.
1.) By far the most important thing is Trent Edwards playing like he did in the first 5 games of last year. If he does I think we will have a playoff shot
2.) Pass rush improvement 50%. Whenever this point is brought up it completely hinges on rookie Aaron Maybin OR Schobel coming back. Why not combine both? Maybin can be used SOLELY on passing downs putting him in position to generate pressure. All indications are that Schobel is healed. I have to take their word for it right now. I am not expecting 14 sacks but a good 8 would suffice.
If there is no hope for this season as the zone "experts" are saying why should we even bother going to the games or watching them on TV.
I am being serious.
You can still be entertained without expecting the team to win a Super Bowl Corey... Just keep in mind that it's not a life or death situation and the NFL exists for entertainment purposes, not to make or break your day.

I am completely aware of these points Scott. I am being questioned on them by some here as of late.
I think the Bills will ultimately be a better team by the end of season. Unfortunately, it may not translate to more wins. The AFC East appears to be very strong. The remainder of the schedule appears to be difficult. That being stated, there's always hope. I'd add the o-line coming together quickly as being equally important as Edwards' play and an improved pass rush.
I think, almost by definition, a fan is one that sticks by his or her team, no matter what. Is the word fan not a derivative of fanatic? You can be more happy or less happy depending on the team's success, but ultimately, you remain faithful. Otherwise, you're not really a fan, but a fairweather fan or a bandwagon jumper.

I stick by the team. I enjoy the games. I root for them to win.
Is that ok?
Oh and I don't think they'll be good though. Sorry if that makes me a bad fan.
