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

but i'm getting sick of bills fans. grow the hell up, what an exciting game.. yesterday did I want us to win? of course. Did we deserve to win? nope. This is a young, talented team. If they turn the corner, they will be real fun to watch.
It's funny how before the game, most fans here were saying the Bills have no shot, they suck, their offense sucks, their defense sucks, etc, the Pats will win easily. Then, when Buffalo comes out and shows that they have a chance to be a good team, and nearly win, they still suck, because they should've won.
That was a VERY encouraging display by our team overall! A couple bad plays ruined it but we played WELL! I am ecstatic about the remaining 15 games!! Especially the one I'll be attending this Sunday. GO BILLS!!!
If you didn't feel real nausea last night, and continue to feel it this morning, I don't think you have the right to imply you are the best Bills fan in the world.
That was gut wrenching loss of a game that was within reach.
We are upset because we care about this team. We hurt because we live and breath Bills football. That's what it's like to be a died in the wool fan.
If a guy can't be upset today, when can he?

It's called growing immune to it. Most of us have lived through Wide Right, The Music City Miracle, the Cowboy Monday Night debacle, among many other heart breaking losses. This one didn't surprise me one bit. I found myself saying, they'll find a way to lose, and they did. I'm not heart broken, in fact, I don't really care. I've grown immune to it. I don't know if that's a good thing, or not, but at least I'm not letting a loss like this ruin my entire week anymore.

It'll hurt real bad for today, maybe tomorrow. Then most of us will move on to next week! This HURTS though.
There are two emotions from last night - the heart crushing disappointment at finding yet another creative way to lose a primetime game. And the encouragement one can take from this team hanging (on the road too) with the team many are predicting to be celebrating in February.
It is a definite mixed bag. I thought the Bills would lose by 24. Not score 24.
I am pissed as hell they lost and am still trying to figure out how they created that way to lose. I am also shocked and encouraged that they were not destroyed in the game.
One could make a legitimate claim that this game, on the road against New England, will be their most difficult game all year. Yet they were more than competitive. There are no moral victories for sure, but the team might not be as bad as some of us thought.

Oh, me neither. But to say "hey, there were some good things that came out of the game too" doesn't help. To call out the fans who are passionate and know the team SHOULD have won the game is wrong. There are far too many games the Bills SHOULD have won and to tell people to stop being negative and stop *****ing is a way of accepting the losses as no big deal. In the grand scheme of life, of course it is no big deal. As a fan of a team that you want to win a championship, it is a HUGE deal. It won't get better with the current coaching staff because we will continue to lose these close games like this to good teams.

I don't want to look at the positives right now, not that I don't see them. But we can't CONTINUOUSLY disregard the negatives. Fumbles happen, false starts and stupid rookie (or first year starters) penalties happen, allowing receivers off the line and allowed to roam freely should NOT continue to happen. Giving up two scores in the last few minutes of games to lose should not continue to happen.

I want them to win, and yes, they should've won last night. But, I see Paul's point too. They didn't look horrible, and the O-line, which was supposed to be their biggest weakness looked not to bad at all.
