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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Didn't realize what Wilson said about the rookie something like -
Every time there is a completion on him, Gilmore would catch up to the QB and WR on what they saw of him on that play, something Wilson said he never saw in the past from anyone did, including vets.
I know Revis, while at Pitt, had a reputation of really digging into all pass plays at him. No wonder all the veteran guys - established guys, Fitz, Stevie, Terrence, and Wilson, think very highly of him.
I've already stated after they drafted those two guys our three best cb's will be Gilmore, Williams and Brooks in the slot this year.
I don't know if they will start the year off like that but Brooks will eventually get there.
Feels good to hear these things about him. McKelvin is such a slopfest, nice to know we've learned a bit since then.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
I agree with most of what was said, but my god was he playing off coverage last Thursday. He was 12 yards off screen pass that Garcon scored on. In college he had a reputation for blowing up screen passes like that.
In the long run I think he'll be fine, but we need to adjust our system to allow aggressive players to be aggressive.
COMING SOON...

Don't remember a single first round selection in the past decade with this type of maturity and work ethic, specifically referring to Bills draft choices. Seems like he's a football junkie and doing his job is his only concern. What a ****ing relief. At least you know he's actively trying to better himself on the field.
NE got a good one from a similar situation in Aaron Hernandez.
I don't think Hernandez was in that kind of situation, stuck behind better players. He was All-American, All-SEC and won the John Mackey Award, given to the best TE in college football.
NE got him because he liked to smoke weed in college and flunked several drug tests. That caused him to drop in the draft and they reaped the benefit.

Marcel Dareus? But in general I fully agree.
Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

I would guess that's dictated by what type of coverage is called by the coaches and not by his preference of how to play the man.
