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!
This is only a test
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

The OC had nothing to do with his inability to hit open receivers. I just hope he starts well against New England; his confidence is seems to be really rattled.

Haven't seen the film. Can't tell on my TV who is open downfield and who isn't.
Then why the heck do they play preseason to evaluate?
Got me. There are few things as worthless as preseason football.
Teams don't prepare, they hardly play their starters, they limit their playbook, so I don't see what good they do for evaluation since they're far from actual game conditions.
Practices are just as useful if not more. Preseason games are nothing more than fashion shows.

Starting QB is like standup comedy. You might get a minute or two of goodwill from the crowd, but if you aren't performing well, people notice...and they don't care. they just want you off the stage.
Same thing will be true for trent. he'll get a couple extra series where people have patience, but if he isn't doing what people are expecting him to do it, then it's over for him. And he knows that and we all know that.

LOL, ok. I disagree. I think it has something to do with setting your roster, and determining your starters. As well as tinkering with your scheme. Call me crazy. If they just wanted the revenue, they would make it a 20 game season.

There's still talk about going to an 18-game season.
Practices using the full playbook are better for determining rosters, because you see the players perform the plays that actually will be used.
And obviously for practicing schemes. How can schemes be evaluated if they're not used? Preseason isn't called vanilla for nothing.

I still think Trent has some confidence issues. Whether or not AVP can fix them as an OC, considering he hasn't as QB coach, remains to be seen. All we can do at this point is wait and see.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

And, preseason is "vanilla" so they can "evaluate" a players skill. You can teach the play, you can't teach skill. They want them playing full speed, and not over thinking out there.
How can schemes be evaluated if they're not used? Huh? We don't practice a 4-3? Were not using a no-huddle? We didn't stop using a FB?
I mean, are you really trying to say that because they didn't "open the playbook", that is proof they aren't evaluating players? Seriously.
