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!
This is only a test
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

T.O. has twice as many yards for the season as the top Bills receiver
Re: T.O. has twice as many yards for the season as the top Bills receiver
We didnt keep him because we knew this year was going to be a rebuilding so why would you have a 37 year old WR on a rebuilding team? We also wanted to develop the young talent at WR (Johnson, Hardy, Parrish, rookies)

Is this also a "rebuilding" year for the Kansas City Chiefs, who were more hapless last year than Buffalo?
I don't buy that for a second, not in this league with trades and FA and owners willing to hire better coaches and executives.
We're not rebuilding, we suck.
I'm not bashing the move of getting rid of Owens, but I can't stand that rebuilding mode talk

Oh please, enough of the homer speak that "we are rebuilding for the future" thus it is okay to do nothing to upgrade the roster. Part of rebuilding is actually bringing in players that can play and contribute.
Re: T.O. has twice as many yards for the season as the top Bills receiver
Holy crap, what a couple of nit-picking nincompoops. Don't focus on the fact that a great player was shown the door, focus on the semantics instead.
Well, they didn't offer him a new contract, he wasn't 'cut', but he was 'cut' in that he doesn't work in Buffalo any more. So are you flockers happy now?
Bottom line, he's an experienced, excellent player and he was shown the door. And he's putting up some excellent numbers this year too. The front office couldn't afford T.O. when the team desperately needs offensive weapons, but they've got somehow $24 million to ridiculously lavish on mediocrity like the helmet-patting Chris Kelsay?
How about you guys get mad about some of these facts, instead of semantics next time.

He wouldn't be putting up those numbers with our QBs throwing to him anyway.
He'd probably have better numbers than anyone here, but he wouldn't be anywhere near where he is in Cincy.
Yeah, but having another great, well-regarded receiver like T.O. on the roster would help free up the coverage on Evans. If your team has one good W.R. then the opponent will put blanket like coverage on him, as we saw on Sunday where Evans was held to one catch for 6 yards.
And again, the Bills incompetent front office has tens of millions to lavish on Kelsay, but not on T.O.? Give me an effin' break!

and how did that work out for us last year... It didn't, Evans had a sub par year...
Re: T.O. has twice as many yards for the season as the top Bills receiver
The Bengals have Carson Palmer. We have Trentan Fitzedwards. 'Nuff said.
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?
Re: T.O. has twice as many yards for the season as the top Bills receiver
But again, you need talent to build with. Currently this is one of the least talented Buffalo Bills teams of the last 25 years. And at least T.O. created some national interest/buzz in the team when he was here. There's a lot of other players a lot less talented than T.O. that are being kept on the payroll in hopes of a 'franchise QB' being added next year.
I'm sorry, but a team that gets rid of Terrell Owens and lavishes contract money on Chris Kelsay is going nowhere.... in a hurry.
This lowly cart.... it hits harder and has a higher yards
per play average than the Bills' offense!
