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!
"The thing I look at, and I'm not trying to throw these guys under the bus, but you look at Alex Smith, Tim Couch, when they were coming out, everybody thought they were surefire picks and going to be great quarterbacks."
Doesnt seem like something youd say about your next QB

Re: Interesting comment that suggests no Alex Smith
I don't take that as a slight against Alex Smith.
But it's common knowledge that Alex Smith has had more coordinators and HCs than just about any other QB in the last 3 years. Who would have guessed he wouldn't be successful? And it looked like the light turned on for him until he was hurt.
Re: Interesting comment that suggests no Alex Smith
Not sold on him. I mean, how much of his 'success' had to do with a) the surrounding talent and more importantly b) the coaching staff. He looked terrible before Harbaugh came to town.
I just dont see him putting up points when they're needed vs. just managing the game and not doing stupid things.

When a player goes from number 1 overall, to bust, to starting playoff QB and 70 cpt thrower, you expect him to be finally takin out of the bust catagory. But Whaley pretty much called him a bust. If Whaley thought highly of him, he wouldnt of put him in the same catagory as Couch.

Re: Interesting comment that suggests no Alex Smith
Personally, I'd be wondering whether the Bills could even afford the contract of Alex Smith. Despite the release of some players, the Bills are just a couple of signed free agents away from being cap strapped. Fitzpatrick's contract has turned into the proverbial dead albatross around this team's neck. Whomever negotiated that contract on behalf of the Bills should have been fired along with Gailey. But, that's my opinion.

I don't think they should of been fired with Gailey I think they should he SHOT

Sanchez's contract is the dead albotross, Not Fitz's contract. His is more like a dead sparrow.
Re: Interesting comment that suggests no Alex Smith
Absolutely do not want Alex Smith.
We've already had 13 uninterrupted years of dumpster fire QBs.
Unless John Harbaugh comes in a package deal, there's no point in signing Smith. And I don't care about all the BS excuses about his coordinators and all that. Dude's a wretch without a top 3 head coach in the NFL telling him what to do.

Re: Interesting comment that suggests no Alex Smith
While I would be fine with Buffalo signing Alex Smith, I never really expected Buffalo to be his destination. Actually, I thought KC might try to acquire him. I think the 49ers want to do a trade if at all possible so they can get something out of it.
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.

Of course they would like to trade him. But any team that makes that trade for Smith is STUPID.
