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

Bills Nation is in an uproar over his "inability" to beat Billy boy and the Pats. WHY? He lost twice to them. It happens, we got swept the year before he got here too. Maybe it is our COACHING STAFFS inability to put together a gameplan to beat the Pats? The fact that the D gave up two TDs in the first game before Drew ever even threw 5 passes doesn't help matters.
I think Drew ends this losing streak against the Pats this September.........
The uproar is all emotion because it's Drew's old team. The fact of the matter is it's a division opponent and getting swept severly hurts your chances in winning the division. We don't hear much of getting swept by the Jets when those 2 loses hurt just as bad. It's the new rivaly much like the Kelly/Marino days. I just hope it's not like the Bills/Dolphins of the 70's.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.
From what I can tell, there's only one person upset about Drew Bledsoe's play for the Bills last year. He just happens to be the most "prolific" of the posters on here and gives the impression that he has support for his arguments.
Argue like hell. Keep it clean. And when it's over, shake hands and root for our team!
I was alive and well and it WAS awful. My father had a restaurant outside of the city and I remember after a game, Shula was there eating dinner with some of his coaches. Not only did he beat the Bills, now he's breaking bread at my father's. I threw on my Bills jacket and just stood there watching him eat. My father got so pissed at me for making Shula's hair stand on edge. Never saw him at the restaurant again.

I was alive in the 70s... but was "young".... so that "dead era" is very vague.

The biggest thing we learned from the Bills is that they are a resilient bunch and did what they had to do to win instead of past years where they fold like a cheap lawn chair.

i would be one person who is concerned about drews inability to win "big" games, not necessarily the games against the pats..
other than the dolphins games (which were played against Lucas), did he beat anyone with a good record last year? no.
but i remember his decisions single handedly killed us in the raiders game and the KC game. he threw two of the worst picks trying to force the ball. and both of those games were easily winable. he also couldnt do a single thing against the pack, when we needed him to.. and could have cost us the game in san diego throwing a pick in the endzone after audibling to the pass on first and second down at the 5 yard line.
i am a drew supporter.. i like the guy.. and it is fun to cheer for him when he is kicking the crap out of the vikes horrible defense, or the bengals horrible defense.. but i cant stand watching him look totally confused at the pats just because the defensive linemen are standing up..
color me concerned, but not overly. i hope this years offense, and defense, should help him.
