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

9:47 PT: The Houston Chronicle reports there is some speculation Houston Texans return specialist Jermaine Lewis, who will count $4.66 million against the salary cap in 2003, will be released by the team.

I like Rogers, but this guy is one of the best in the league.
I doubt it will happen because we do have Rogers, but if the price was right, I wouldn't mind having Lewis.
i think its too big of a risk to let clements return the kicks. Joe Burns would do just fine. he returned a kick to the 39 yard line during the season and i think it was his only try. Although i think giving it to clements on occasions isn't a bad idea.
I love the idea of possibly snagging Lewis if the Price is right. He could even play 3rd WR if Price is gone. Rogers hasn't done as much as expected and I don't remember him getting used on offense at all. Using Clements on returns isn't something I'm in favor of....I'd rather have him fresh for defense.
I'm not convinced that the return guy is the reason for our mediocre return game. I'm not convinced our special teamers know how to block the way they ought to, or the schemes are the best they can be. In other words, Danny Smith gets my vote as the next coach who ought to be dismissed.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
There's no way that Lewis will come cheap. And I'm not all that impressed with Rogers either--he did take some pretty big hits on some returns, but I thought he was supposed to be explosive??
See me here pushing you
If I then deny I do
Contemplate or wish away
If I ask you not to stay
You cant be explosive when no one is blocking, MissB.
TypicalBill, Joe Burns returned a squib kick to the 39 yard line. And he had some other returns on the year that were the same result as most of Roger's returns.
I think its the ST blocking. Give Rogers one more year.

He was explosive until he came to Buffalo. He takes big hits because there's no blocking.
Give Charlie Rogers decent Special Teams blockers in front of him along with a decent special teams blocking scheme and he can be dangerous.
Ask the Vikings.
I noticed he got the snot knocked out of him later in the season, especially in the Pat's game. I would bet anyone would have been gun shy and beat up after that.
