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

His teams are too stupid and lack killer instinct, much like those uber-talented Bucs teams that always underachieved till Gruden had to show them how it’s done.
I love the culture he built, ending the drought, and bringing respect back to the franchise…but his teams are always outschemed and out-physicalled. Time to get a closer, and it has to be an offensive guy
Levy did Kelly, Belicheck did Brady, Dungy did Manning, Etc…
Yep. Great players make coaches. Not the other way around. All those guys have in common is they failed until they got a HOF QB. McD was lucky to get one his first go around.
Fair. I'm not saying he sucks. I just think he's nothing special. At this level most know how to coach. It's having great players that set them apart.
I’m still on the fence. I do question some of the decisions. I didn’t understand the offensive game plan at all today. They should have run the ball more and pass only when necessary. 25 attempts and probably half were 20+ yards. The conditions weren’t right for them. This isn’t the first questionable game plan. We threw way too much during the three skid. With Josh’s injury they should have pounded the ball. And why the feel they need to run Josh so much especially after the last couple game is maddening. Why didn’t they give the BBCack the ball on that 3rd and short Josh ran today?
Yeah Dorsey is responsible for the game plan, but I’m sure McD has final approval?
I’d really like to dislike Frazier’s defense, but they usually adjust and win. Plus with all the injuries especially on the defense it’s amazing we are so good. We are like 5th or 6th overall. Kinda amazing.

Did throwing deep open up the run game?
It never felt like bills were going to lose the game. It just felt like a matter of time before they ran away with it.
Great adjustments after the first quarter.
People expectations are TOO high. People expect a touchdown every drive. That’s not realistic. Sure the bears are “bad” but they are also an nfl football team. With 53 pros on the other side. They won 35-13.
“It breaks your heart when someone leaves and you don’t know why.”
"It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you" Former President Donald Trump early Thursday touted the results of a new NPR/PBSNewsHour/Marist pollshowing him ahead of President Joe Biden by 8 percentage points among independents.

As far as the pass setting up the run, maybe but I think we could have run the ball at will. Like I said earlier, we one and that’s the goal. I just thought with conditioning being what they were and forecasted there was no need throw ad much as we did. 11-3 is 11-3 and I’m not complaining.
I remember the exact moment McDermott lost me and it’s only been a downward spiral (imo) since then:
Down 21-9 right before halftime of the AFCCG at KC with a 4th and goal from inside the 5, I believe. His balls shriveled up and he kicked the FG, knowing damn well that 3 points does ****-all in that situation as it’s still a 2 score game (with KC getting the 2nd half kickoff iirc).
He coached not to lose in the biggest game of his career and it crippled the team’s confidence.

Oh Mother of Perpetual Misery, help us.
Yeah, the team's confidence is so low they just won their 3rd straight AFC East title.
They play not to lose often enough to sport a 12-3 record this year.
They aren't physical enough that they held the No. 1 rushing team in the NFL to less than 100 yards and less than 3 yards per carry.
They aren't physical enough despite rushing for more than 200 yards in frigid temps and more than 250 yards and 8 yards per carry.
I know, I know, Like OP/Sully/Whomever, you think you're being some type of "realist"..but...you're not...you're just being wrong the vast majority of the time.
I swear, I think some of these realists would like Rex Ryan back.
Win or lose, they finally found a coach/GM combo that puts them in a position to succeed. This after such a long line of misses...
Williams
Miularkey
Jauron
Fewell
Marrone

Damn...just try and enjoy the recent success, if only for a moment.
You guys realize he took the Bills to the playoffs his first season, with Tyrod Taylor as his QB, right?
And? I don't want to get rid of him. I think he's another Marv. Good leader and motivator. Not a good schemer or game day coach. Good enough if he has great talent. Not going to out scheme someone in a big game
