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

Pittsburgh will be starting Dennis Dixon today. Wouldn't hurt to look intot hat game at times and see how he is fairing. He has a big arm, and great athleticism. He played for Oregon that year they were going undefeated. He tore his ACL and Oregon's National Title dreams went down the tubes.
Dixon is young and is blocked by Big Ben, so it could be a Matt Cassel/Matt Schaub situation.
COMING SOON...

I liked him at Oregon...I'm interested to see what he does today.
As an Arizona fan, I remember Dixon well. They were unstoppable until he went down, and if I remember correctly we were the team it happened against. We ended up beating them at that was that for their title hopes, which as you mentioned were strong up to that point. Definitely worth a look today... good posting, DB.
I see Dennis Dixon being much like Troy Smith....he can start for you and win games, most of the time at least he won't lose them for you, but he can't turn a franchise around....somewhere between Schuab and Cassel I guess (more towards Cassel)

Except he's taller and leaner than Smith, and I'd say more talented. I just looked up his weight... 209. May be a bit light for the beating he would have to take as a starting QB.
i think its pretty safe to say that with our new coach they will be taking a QB with our first round pick as there QB of the future and since none will be going 1 overall its safe to say we could be in position to have our pick of the crop. my guess is honestly we draft bradford or clausen. they will be the 2 highest true qb's coming out this year. especially clausen cause he ran a pro system and excelled at it and has a cannon arm for the weather he would play in in buffalo. i dont see any situation where we dont take a QB with our first pick. there is no LT that will be ranked higher than clausen or bradford that we will be able to get our hands on. and there will be no starting caliber QB available for trade or free agency. you can pretty much lock QB in for us.
Dixon looked rocky to me, his TD throw to Holmes was not that nice, it was low and behind Holmes who had to adjust. He didn't look horrible at all, but that last INT was bad and he probably should of had 2 more picked off.
His legs looked good though as he bought a lot of time. Overall I saw a project still but one with a live arm and who could be brought along. I still think picking him up or a Josh Johnson from Tampa in a trade for a mid round pick may be a better option than taking a draft pick in this crappy QB class.

Agreed. Certainly none of these projected first rounders look worth it to me.
Draft in the Front 7 of the D and the OL first...then keep drafting there again & again for the next 2 years.
