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

Listen as Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott is mic'd up against the New York Jets in Week 1 of the 2017 NFL season.Subscribe to NFL Films: http://goo.g...
There is no way with his personality, that we are tanking. Also he really has a jon gruden personality, I really feel like our players would die for this guy. He was a great hire. But when looking at the psychology of a person, with how he interacts and shows emotion toward players, he is not tanking. Like incognito said, there's a whole new ****in energy here
Not here to be right, just here to have interesting discussions about my impulsive opinions
I'm not buying it yet. If they end up .500 or better at the bye then I will believe that they aren't deliberately tanking. Until then, the moves I've seen have lead me to believe they're tanking.
You know what impressed me about that video? Not all the rah rah. It was him yelling go down go down after the interception. That's what I'm always yelling when a guy is trying to get an extra yard. I'm glad to see we have a coach that gets it.
He still talks too much for my liking. I don't like it when coaches tell media what they know about the team they are facing and what they think needs to be done.
BB has been successful because he knows information is key in winning a game. He's cheated to get it and he wont give it in return. He'll even tell you that Chris Kelsay is a great DE.
I know in the end it's all about the players performing their duties but every bit of information helps.

It's not about personality.
It's about reality. If he truly feels there is no way to win with the habd he was dealt, there simply is no legit argument for not tanking. Stockpile draft picks and finish with 4-5 wins instead of 7-8.
As a fan, it's frustrating as **** to know we are going through another year without playoffs. As a rational person, I know this is a necessary evil.
We lost Watkins who barely ever played, and got Mathews
We lost Woods and got Zay
We lost Darby and Gilmore and got Gaines and White
We aren't tanking, we wouldn't of replaced these players with good players if we were. I could argue that we got rid of some inconsistencies for solid players. Gilmore, Darby, Woods, and Watkins were never consistent.

Zay is completely unproven at the NFL level. Gaines was consistently graded worse than Darby last year. Mathews isn't as talented as Watkins- the only argument in defense of this move is if Mathews canbe on the field more consistently than Watkins was, and he's already been hurt once. White- you could argue that he's a better value than Gilmore but he's not more talented.
There is no way to argue against this being a talent downgrade.
Oh and just for the record: I never liked Gilmore and I'm glad we didn't overlay him. But once again, the Bills failed to replace him with anyone equal or better.

no doubt talent wise we downgraded, but that isnt the argument. It's whether we are tanking.

Cant make that determination just yet. Yes we played the lowly jets but.....
Bills pass D 9th
NE pass D 30th
Did we upgrade the safety position? If I may make an assumption after 1 game like you just did, I think we did.
