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

Jerry Sullivan, "Why not give Brohm a shot with the starters?"
Jerry Sullivan, "Why not give Brohm a shot with the starters?"
Brian Brohm got into the act, throwing a gorgeous sideline pass to Chad Jackson that led to a field goal and a 24-21 lead at halftime. Here's an idea: If there really is an "open" competition at quarterback, why not give Brohm a chance to play with the starters in a preseason game? Or has Edwards sewed up the job with one long TD pass to Evans?
My opinion? Well as Dr. Lecter, SAB and a few others have pointed out, I'm a Brohm supporter. But, I'm against this. As much as I would love to see what he could do, Edwards showed improvement from preseason game one to tonight. So, I think he earned another start. The third preseason game is the starters' last tuneup. You don't throw off team continuity when they are improving as a unit. If Edwards had come out and laid an egg, yes I'd say Brohm deserves a shot. However, Edwards held off the competition. I think, if anything, Brohm playing with the second team tonight might have proved to be motivation for Trent to take some downfield shots. (That or having three of your o-line starters in there...)
But absolutely, I would play Brohm with the second team.

At this point, it's Edwards' job. That being said, there is absolutely no good reason that Brohm should not be the 2nd string QB on this roster this year. I'm done with the useless, upside-less, zero potential...Fitz. The roster should look like this:
Re: Jerry Sullivan, "Why not give Brohm a shot with the starters?"
Outside of the drive with Spiller's TD, and Lee beating everyone by a mile, the first unit had a lot of short drives. I think people are getting wrapped up in the long TD because they only saw two 40+ yd pass attempts from Trent last season.
Re: Jerry Sullivan, "Why not give Brohm a shot with the starters?"
If Gailey was impressed with Brohm tonight, he'll start getting a few snaps with the first team offense in practice. At this point I doubt it will happen in one of the 2 remaining games.

i know i give you crap about Brohm but i have to agree with Sully. one good game doesn't sew up the starting job for Edwards. (that's my opinion) like Sully, i haven't seen an open competition at QB. when is this going to happen?
