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

TD never actually said that AFAIK - it was an assumption by some media outlet that started making the rounds and got blown out of proportion. TD did say something to the effect that it's always preferable to have someone with HC experience, but it's not a necessity.
Also, who else is out there realistically? He had Coughlin set up for an interview - Green is the only other viable ex-HC I can think of offhand.
How much experience did Lewis have this year? What about Fox? It took him 2 years to get deeper in the playoffs then the Bills have been in 9 years. Coaching experience is a little overrated.
Do you have a profile for the new head coach? Would you him to have head-coaching experience in the NFL?
"It's always nice if you can get that. But I don't want to say we need 'A, B, C, D' to have a head coach. I think we need to have the right head coach. I've got to do a better job of doing that this time around. We have to do it objectively. We have to do it with an open mind. I don't think we can necessarily put x amount of criteria on it and say, 'this is what we have to have."
And then this one makes me believe there might still be more candidates and interviews...
You've often said that Gregg blew you away in his interview for the job. In hindsight, do you think that will change your perception of what you need to do to find the next head coach of the Buffalo Bills?
"Let me say this about the interview process: Unless you guys and ladies sit in on the interview process, you have no idea who says what. And you have no idea who is interested in the job and who isn't. I have to decide that. I'm the person who is responsible for making that decision. I have to make a better decision this time than I made the last time. As far as the interview process, it will be thorough, it will be complete and we will adhere to the rules of the Diversity Committee and we will do it the right way. It will take as much time as we feel it takes to get the right head coach."
