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

I mean, defensive coordinator is the deciding factor for me, but I have to tell you the experience Gailey has brought in gives me hope that we might actually start having something to play for.
Good teachers, good experience, good all around assistant coaches.
Plus, Gailey is an offensive guy. Which I believe we needed.
Knowing the head coach and most the coaching staff that has been announced (minus a mystery coordinator)
Would you prefer if the Bills proceeded as is with Gailey, Modkins, Smith (insert other new coaches)
Or do you wish the Bills had retained Perry Fewell and brought back the entire 2009 coaching staff?
Fewell was a joke who would have been convinced Fitz is all we need at QB... No, I'm glad were in a new direction. I'm just not too hopeful the results will be much better.
Regardless of what I think of the new staff, we needed change. We needed a fresh set of eyes that didn't have any prior attachments, to evaluate our players.
It unfortunate that I manage to convince myself that the mediocre/poor moves that the organization makes each off season will magically make us competitive... when will I learn?
If we had an offense that was ranked 15th, we could've been fighting for wilcard with our D. It's not hard to duplicate the D we had and I think Chan can give us a way better offense than what we had.
If anything, I'm glad we're trying an offensive minded coach for a change.
I'm awaiting our DC selection, but whether that ends up being a college guy or someone on the Colts/Saints staff, I'm still happier than if we kept Fewell & Co.
1. Fewell may totally deserve the opportunity, and may be a great coach. But the club really needed a change. Regardless of what the players say about Jauron/Fewell, you just simply can't lose for four years in a row, keep the same guys in charge, and expect that it won't impact team confidence. There IS such a thing as a losing culture.
2. If Fewell & Chan are about even in terms of attractiveness, I'll take the offensive guy at this point. I can't even imagine another three years of watching our offense put up 12 points a game.
3. I've got a homeristic inkling that Chan might actually be a very good coach for this team. Once the fan/pundit furor died down, there have been enough positive comments from fairly respectable sources to give me some optimism. He's not sexy, but he's certainly done enough to merit a second chance at an NFL head coaching job. Indeed, I think his resume in that respect was quite a bit stronger than Perry's.
Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?
