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

I think Willis is going to be the key to any success we have on sunday. The best way to beat a cover 2 is to run at it. I think Wills needs to have a great game because if JP comes out throwing then we are in trouble.
I think Gandy is going to do well against a speed rusher like rice, He will need some help from the Tightend, and the fullback at times but he should be fine. Im actually more worried about Teague, and the guards against Boger Mcfarland, and Chris Hovan. Not to mention Mike Williams against Greg Spires. The oline needs to have a big day. I think running wills right at Rice is the best way to go. He struggles with the run.
Its Tampa's first Home Game so they will be extra fired up. Tampa's defense is alot better then Houston's. I doubt the Bills will get in the Redzone as much as they did against Houston and they need to turn those FGs into Touchdowns.
Her is how we beat the Bucs, Bennie, Trey and Chris (or preston) against the smallish Hovan and Mcfarland. LB's are also small but extremely fast. I see lots of draw play forcing the LB's to dropback and WM up the middle. Don't think we will see to many misdirection plays more smash mouth straight at them. play of the game, late 1st half after willis rips off 3 consecutive runs of 7 yds or more we will see the flea flicker back to JP who hits Lee in stride for a 48 yard TD!
I think it will boil down to Ryan Lindell being able to make a few more FGs. The "Tampa Cover 2" is a little bit more stingy that the Texans defense. I have no doubt that we will drive to red zone, I just think that Lindell better have his **** together 2 weeks in a row.
What I dislike though is the media's take on the Bills redzone experience thus far. I wouldn't expect it to improve this week at TB. People are going to start to panic if we don't have TDs in the red zone. Well it's not panic time yet. Last week was opening day so the Bills should get an alibi; this week we have to play a top 10 (maybe top 5) defense in their home opener. Lets not jump the gun just yet. Give the kid a chance.
Its Tampa's first Home Game so they will be extra fired up. Tampa's defense is alot better then Houston's. I doubt the Bills will get in the Redzone as much as they did against Houston and they need to turn those FGs into Touchdowns.
I totally agree with you. You can be sure that Tampa will take away the run (look at Minny - only 26 yds on 16 carries) and force Losman to beat them with his arm. I'm expecting a real low scoring game. Something like 10-6. Though I could see this game ending up as one big "learning experience" for Losman where he throws a couple picks which get taken to the house. If that's the case, then I could see us losing by a couple of scores. Should be an interesting game.
