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

He wasn't getting those initial blocks from the ST. At one point before he even caught the ball there were 3 Pats blocking his escape routes. None of them being handled by Bills blockers.
RedEye's right. The gunners were not being handled by our return team. They were all over him.
If we don't get this fixed, it could lead to some fumbling problems.
Other than the lask of pressure, for the most part, from our DE's, I thought it was the only other weakness.
I think he realized returning after the first unit special teams was alot harder then it was returning after the second units like he did alot in preseason.
I think he'll be good returned in the future, but it might take him a while to adjust.

I thought I saw NE change their punt coverage so that they had a couple of guys behind the line of scrimmage that took off down the middle of the field with no one from the Bills able to block them....they didn't rely on the gunners on the outside to get down there.
He did look nervous, there was poor blocking, it was real coverage...but if he gets any space at all, watch out. I think he was clocked in training camp with a 4.1 40. Speed Kills.
I think the return that was called happened to be the opposite side to where it was punted each time. Like if the Bills called return right, the Pats happened to kick it left. You'll see him trying hard to get to the other side of the field.
The kid tried to make thing happen. I think he'll be alright.

Sounds like the same people that doubted the defense this year. Trust me he will be okay. First NFL game jitters and excellent special teams on the Patriots, that's all. This week he will step up and prove himself against the poor special teams in Jacksonville.
