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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Take your own advice and give Marv a chance. The guy has been the GM of The Bills for a few months, and he's already under the microscope. How about trusting his judgement for a change. I think he knows a thing or two about football, and what it takes to win. He knows a hell of a lot more than anyone who posts on any message board, or any sports writer, so how about cutting the guy a tiny bit of slack.

That is all.
Good Day.
Marv knows more than us ? Impossible.
I'm looking forward to the upcoming Draft and can't wait to see how this all unfolds. Exciting times. In Marv I trust.

Isn't it funny how fans were willing to give TD who was FIRED in Pitt 3 years but won't give Marv even 3 months?
I've been saying that Marv deserves the benefit of the doubt all along. The guy did lead the Bills to four straight Super Bowls! I know I know, as a coach. But like I've said in the past, he knows football inside and out and he deserves a shot.
Marv has commented more than once how Aikman was 1-15 his first year, how he thought that Elway would never make it after his first couple of years, how Peyton Manning was pretty bad at the beginning of his career, etc.
Marv should heed his own words and at least give JP this season to prove himself one way or the other.
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?
Your right, a 3rd year QB knows how to run an NFL team better than an 80 year old who coached a team to 4 AFC titles. My bad. You're right.
Is that what I said? Do you just make stuff up or did what I say just fly right over your head?
A young QB needs time to get good at what he does. Any GM, especially one who's been around as long as Levy, brings expertise to the job and should know what he's doing from Day 1. Therefore there's no comparing the two jobs.

Did I compare the jobs? No. Quit putting words into my mouth. If Marv doesn't think JP can lead the team, then he should get rid of him. I dont' care if he's played 100000 games or 1. If the HC and GM don't have any confidence in a QB, what's the point of keeping him around? He's only being set up to fail. I'm not saying Marv is right, or wrong, I'm saying give the guy a chance. If he doesn't think JP is the right QB, or lacks character, or whatever, then he has every right to get rid of him. This is MARV'S team now, not TDs. Remember that.

because back then we only had 2 years of losing- now we've had to endure 6. The patience now isn't what it was then.
Plus I think your assumption is generally false- I don't recall too many people questioning TD's hiring, but I do remember a lot of people calling for his head after 2 years.

He should only give him a chance IF he thinks Losman has what it takes. If he has no confidence in the kid, there's not much point in giving him a shot, because it wouldn't be a "fair" shot.

You are right.
