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 say we bring back Henry Jones, we still need leadership and experience at the safety position now with the loss of Cota. Or bring in Anothony Dorsett or Blaine Bishop to really solidify this backfield.
and either eric metcalf or desmond howard for punt returns, I still think they'd be an upgrade over who we got right now.
metcalf is only 35 althought it seems like he's been around for a long time, desmond is even younger, however they've been game breakers in the past. Has shaw ? I like to go on proven records.
It wouldnt hurt to look at Ismail or Crowell for that matter, if Shaw is a bust, we wont have a solid #3 and we gota think Aikens needs a year to develop, Ismail has been a proven WR in this league for many years.
i like crowell alot ....i would be pleased if we signed him...better team better results he had nothing really around him i think he could really be solid in buffalo

Hey, maybe we can get Kent Hull to be the backup center?????
Seriously people, let the history go! No Jones, No Bruce Smith.... we have new GM, new coach, new players and hopefully we can do something the past didn't, win the super bowl.
I totally agree. We have enough veteran leadership at enough positions already. Let's develop some new blood.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
I'm philosophically opposed to signing anyone that was on Tecmo Superbowl for the 8 bit NES - like Henry Jones (Mark Kelso was our other safety I believe), or Metcalf - who was a Brown if I'm not mistaken.
from the AJC.com ". . . . Former safety Henry Jones, who was talked out of retirement to play last season, is assisting secondary coach Emmitt Thomas in a voluntary capacity."
Also if you click on the link you'll recognize the names of several others.
Ditto, Demon. The super bowl years were great (and would have been better with a win), and the post super bowl years still had some good and exciting teams, but the past is past and these guys, who are in their mid thirties or so, are not going to make the Bills a better football team.
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.
