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

Anyone have any opinions on how our receivers are doing this year compared to last year?
I think our receivers regressed.
Let's look at the stats:
Last year our best WR from a stats point was SJ13 who had 52 catches for 597 yards (49.8 ypg) and 3 TDs, this year our leading receiver is Sammy Watkins who as a rookie has put up 59 catches for 850 yards(60.7 ypg) and 5 TDs.
Robert Woods was our second best WR both years and last year he had 40 catches for 587 yards (41.2 yards per game) and 3 TDs by contrast he has 54 catches for 608 yards (43.7 ypg) and 3 TDs.
TJ Graham had 23 yards for 361 yards (22.6 ypg) and 2 TDs compared to Chris Hogan's 37 catches for 380 yards (27.1 ypg) and 4 TDs.
So I would say if this season was over then I'd say we were marginally better but with two games left on the schedule I'd say it's more like slightly better. I don't blame Moore though as on the whole I think our WRs are average at best. Watkins has the chance to be above average and Robert Woods might progress next year in his 3rd year.
I would love to add a veteran to the mix who could be a guy to compete for the 3rd/4th spot as I'm not sold on Goodwin and Thigpen has shown he can be an above average return man prior to yesterday but has had issues holding onto the ball but hopefully that's behind him. One name I like is Nate Washington of the Titans who I don't think would break the bank. As for the season 38 yards 629 yards (44.9 ypg) and 2 TDs as a 3rd/2nd WR role. As to me the only guys at WR I like now are Watkins, Woods, Hogan (but not sold on him as a 3rd guy), Thigpen and Easley (UFA that I'd re-sign for ST). Or maybe we can look to add Kris Dunham and hope we can use his 6'6" as a red zone threat but this far in his career he hasn't materialized into one yet so doubtful he turns into one here.
I think Robert Woods has grown under Moore. Too early to say much about Watkins other than the fact that he has special potential. I do wish he could do something to teach Chris Hogan how to run his route all the way to the first down marker but nobody is perfect.
COMING SOON...

I have a hard time believing that isn't a function of play design, and not execution. If Hogan were consistently running routes shorter than intended, one would think he would grade poorly enough that the coaches would want to get somebody in there that could do it 'right'.
