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

The Bengals hireing Marvin Lewis as HC is VERY VERY bad for the bills
The Bengals hireing Marvin Lewis as HC is VERY VERY bad for the bills
Seeing as how Lewis is a defensive mastermind, he will want all the talnet he can get. Which means THE BENGALS WILL RESIGN TAKEO SPIKES.
Of course, im still optimistic. But after seeing what Lewis did in Baltimore with Lewis and Boulware, Spikes would be stupid not to stay in Cinci, even if it means he will have to wait another couple of years to play in the playoffs.

The Bengals were going to franchise tag Spikes regardless who took the reigns of the Bengals.
I think the Lewis hiring is good for the Bills. It's one less Head coaching job available for Tom Coughlin. If Williams fails next season, and If Coughlin isn't a head coach somewhere, I think he's the guy the Bills should consider

LOL
Yeah, I'm not sure it was the shrewdest of decisions either.
Cincy is the black hole of the NFL for talented players like Dillon and coaches alike. The owner has not demonstrated a commitment to winning by being cheap and under the cap every year significantly.
But, Lewis wanted a head coaching job. I think he would have gotten his chance elsewhere either this season or next one way or another.
We'll see...
Replace Donahoe with Modrak and fire the entire coaching staff!
Its only bad for Lewis. I Totally agree. Lewis wont bring in bigtime players. Bengals owner doesnt want to spend the money. Probably tag Spikes to make Lewis happy. But with no GM to talk to and an owner who wont open his wallet,how good can the Bengals get? Not very good. It takes more than a good Defensive Cordinator made coach to change a team. Same old Bengals next 12 years straight.
Marvin was in a bind. He couldn't spend another year with that nimrod Steve Spurrier and ever hope to get a chance to be a HC anywhere. He had to take anything that was offered.
Anything though? the way I see he could have had more teams looking at him. He took the first that was offerred. Mike Brown will not let go of HIS team and HIS money. He needs to build an Oline and get somebody for the Qb to throw too.
In fact I think they should trade that #1 pick to US for Jay Riesmersma and maybe another flop(s) So we could get Carson Palmer to learn under Drew for 2 or 3 years.
I know its a pipe dream but hey it is also 11 degrees out and the wood stove is running low. Something could happen like I might stoke the stove and Mike Brown might still be cheap!
The fact that the Redskins defense was mediocre at best under Lewis makes me wonder if it was the talent that made Lewis look so good in Baltimire. I am really not overlly impressed with him and I think he thinks he is better than he really is.

I agree that the skins underacheived but they finished 6th in the league in total defense. That's pretty good.
