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

He's always been nonexistant against the run. And every once in a while he'll make a play that shows up on the stat sheet and impresses people who only care about stat sheets. He's the new Schobel, and that's not a compliment.

I don't understand what people expect from this guy...
He is not the proper size for his position, he's a 5th round pick, and he seems like a hick. The guy gives it his all every play and makes a few good ones here or there. Who is expecting more than that??

Only a Bills fan would say some ****ing bull**** like this.
Technically, you are right. However, any decent franchise would NEVER put a player like Williams in a position to fail like this. The FO basically said "Uhhhh every other team in our division kicks our asses with a 3-4, so let's just make the switch. We'll worry about getting the right players later."
Hence, Williams gets ****ed over because he's being asked to do things beyond his abilities and fans get ****ed over because we don't have a true NT.
of everyone to destroy on our defense who deserve it (pretty much everyone except McKelvin), you pick on the lone guy on the d-line who wasn't cover your eyes bad...
i mean he wasn't great... or even good, but he wasn't terrible either. he had a lot of people in the front 7 embarrassing themselves play after play that he sorta almost looked good.

weird...
I'm picking on him because as soon as I learned we were switching to the 3-4, I said he wasn't a 3-4 NT. Yet, this stupid ****ing FO insists on using him as a 3-4 NT. That infuriates me.
Yes, there were worse players on the field (Kelsay, Maybin- you could probably keep going). But that doesn't excuse the FO for trying to shoehorn Williams into a position he clearly doesn't fit.

Right, which is not a knock on Williams. I have no problem with the guy.
Why hate on the guy for what the FO is doing to him?
I do agree with you that it's messed up for a professional football organization to expect Williams to be able to handle the position. Maybe they just expect him to do well enough...
Put Troup in and get him the experience- he can't be much worse than Williams. And even if he is, we're 0-3. It's not like he'll be costing us victories.

Because some here think he's a stud. He's been a Pro Bowl alternate.
He's being picked on because he's overrated.

There, I said it. I know, he overachieved, and he outplayed McCargo, and he's a fan favorite, but none of that changes his mediocrity on the field
He had 2 great plays on one series when it was already too late. The rest of the game, he was Keith Ellison irrelevant.
And while we're on that topic, Keith Ellison ****ING BLOWS.
Well, it was not too late until the final 3 min of the game. The Bills were in this game the entire day. I will bet there was no laughing done by the Pats* today at the Bills.

Schobel was far better than you are obviously unwilling to give him credit for. Over our present cast of characters, he'd still be an all-pro.
As for Williams, likable player who gives great effort but he's far too often dominated. Two plays today, same series, late in the game. Nice plays, but the O pissed them away with the Fitz int......

Just like the QB position. It starts with NT for a 3-4 defense. KW is getting blown up and that is forcing our LBs to take on OGs and Cs all day.
Granted Ellison is weak but KW is making it hard on everyone. Troup should be getting more snaps.
