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!
They need a safety. Bad. Swearinger would be nice. Ed Reed should come out of retirement lol
Beat me to it.
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.
It's sad but his career is probably over. He loved the bills. He was an average starter at best, but he loved everything about this team and the fan base.
At this point I just hope Williams gets his health.
Figured he'd get hurt again, his injury was just nasty, had hoped we'd get Su'a Cravens a tweener s/olb hybrid all offseason. Was just reading Washington, after using him at OLB is starting to give him safety reps. Doesn't really matter now, but I liked Cravens as an SS/olb hybrid instead of olb/s.
Safety is awful important in a Ryan defense....ala Jim Leonhard. I was surprised they put all their Leonhard eggs in the Williams/Blanton basket, but maybe Blanton steps up.
Just retire, the game isn't that important. I'd much rather AW get out with whatever health he has left and lose the rest of the games this season than see him risk becoming another Darryl Stingley or Dennis Byrd.

His life and health is way more important than football (especially this team)
Gonna miss seeing him out there, because he is one of my favorite players here...
But...You gotta do what you gotta do.

"Coach Levy is one of the most inspirational people that I have ever known."
***Thurman Thomas.***
"You're not going to find a more classier, down-to-Earth person away from the field than Marv Levy. He's a guy who's pretty much made me what I am today as far as a professional player and a person."
***Jim Kelly***
Been saying it since last week. Can't understand the posters that call him average. He's far from average and his absence is very very noticeable.
He's certainly above average when healthy. But he's not right anymore. So add that to the list of off-season needs. Too many now to be addressed in the draft alone. Expect Whaley to make a couple of free agent signings.
But, in other news, not too many people talking about all the times we heard Shaq Lawson's name being called. For his only being back two weeks, this bodes well for the future.
Sad to say, he's only played in 10 games over the past 2 years, garnering 35 tackles, but with very decent PD numbers.
Its a damn shame because he's a good player. And more importantly he likes it here. For all the **** Buffalo takes about people not wanting to play here this is a guy, like EWood or Freddy, that has actually taken the city as his own and loves the team.
