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!
This is only a test
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

Both AFC clubs flew him in for recent visits, and Slash speaks confidently of a decision being only days away.
But no matter what happens, this is pretty traumatic stuff if you've never had to wait to play football. A pay cut is probably in store. And for the first time since her arrived in Pittsburgh as a second-round pick almost a decade ago, Stewart won't be in play for the starting job.
Originally posted by bills_7 if he comes cheap ill take him..... he will be a valuable guy to have on 3rd and short......
But now that Gilbride is gone, we won't be passing on 3rd and short so why would we need a running QB, he will now be giving the ball to Henry/McGahee...Even Travis Brown could do that.

I don't think she would fit the Bills' new offense.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
Actually I wouldn't mind bringing in Kordell for a year and put Losman on the shelf. Last thing you want to do is have Drew hurt for a couple of games and rush Losman in and crush his confidence.
I have to say that I get tired of hearing the "kill their confidence" line. If they are NFL caliber players, they could screw up and learn from the experience. Troy Aikman, John Elway, Peyton Manning were "rushed" in and were awful in their first season. It didn't seem to bother them. The reason this is brought up is because of RJ. That guy had no confidence to begin with, or he didn't really care. Either way, a player either has confidence or he doesn't and no matter what he does on the field, he will take that information and use it to learn from. Besides, from what I have heard, Losman doesn't lack confidence so it should be the last thing we have to worry about.

so whenever a 3 rd and 4 comes up ur saying they should hand the ball off, i dont think so.... maybe sometimes... if we keep running it teams will figure us out..... so if we bring in KS it will keep them guess what the play is gonna be on 3rd and short

I don't like the idea of conistently switching our QB when we get to 3rd and short. Ok, maybe once or twice a game, bring a guy in to give a weird and different look, but switching QB's in and out can really disrupt a drive for the offense IMO.
The only way i would want him playing would be as a 4 receiver or 2nd rb for confusion we could pitch it to him and he can run or pass it. He is also good at returning punts. I definately rather have Travis Brown play qb then Kordell (ground ball) Stewart.

Anyone remember what happened the last time Stewart started for Mularkey?
If Stewart didn't get so much hype because of "Slash" when he first started out, I think he'd be held in a lot higher esteem.
Cunningham was a decent backup in his latter years and he had the same issues as Kordell (yes, Randall was more talented in his prime, but his style completely changed by the end). Stewart would be a great pickup as a backup. What positive can you really say about Drew that you can't say about Kordell (both have been to the pro bowl, AFC championship games, both are coming off some tough times, etc.).
