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

2 times I have seen the Bills on the limited edition labels
the first Was of corse, Wide right
Here is the second one
The Tennessee Titans return a Kickoff 75 yards down the sideline to lift them to a last-second 22-16 victory over the Buffalo Bills in the 2000 AFC Wild Card playoff game
No talk of the fact that the play is still contested today

To this day, that play still haunts me. That was the last shot we had at a legit Super Bowl run and it pains me. If Flutie was in that game, we win hands down....I still refer to that as the Motor City Forward Lateral everytime I am forced to talk about it.....DAMN IT!!!!

Damn I never saw this article...Interesting...even a HC/GM like Mike Holmgren said it was an illegal forward pass.
It's Saturday, 12:45 p.m. Pacific time. I'm in the lobby of the Seahawks' training complex, waiting for Mike Holmgren.
But I know where he is. He's back in his office, watching the most incredible play I've seen in a football game in a long time. I'm in the lobby because Seattle owner Paul Allen, bless him, has put an HDTV set there, and I'm watching the second half of the Bills-Titans game. It's here that I watch the weirdest play of the season.
Finally, after the 17th replay of the Frank Wycheck lateral-turned-winning-touchdown-
pass, Holmgren appears.
"Officials made the right call, didn't they?'' I say to Holmgren.
"Nope,'' Holmgren says. "That was a forward pass.''
I press on. Of course, the call looked bad at first blush, as if Wycheck threw the ball a couple of yards forward to Kevin Dyson, who then ran downfield 75 yards for the winning touchdown. But then, replay after replay began to show more and more doubt. The camera near the 25 seemed to show Wycheck, with his body on the 25 or maybe the 24.5, throwing a perfect spiral laterally to Dyson. I point this out to Holmgren, even enlisting the aid of a chair as yard-marker in the deserted lobby to help me, but he doesn't buy it. The referee, luckless Phil Luckett, should have overturned the call, Holmgren says.
only problem with what Holmgen said was that Luckett couldn't overturn the call. There had to be definitive proof that the call was bad and there was no way to tell from the camera angles. However, Byron Boston was out of position on the play... from his vantage point it looked like a lateral. Had he been up where the play was going on, I think it would have been called a forward pass and Luckett would have let that stand as well.
It's commonly reffered to as the music city miracle..... But I'd hardly define that as a miracle from a Bills fan Point of view
