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!
Damn, he's ripping up Minnesota tonight too. What a revelation he's become.
Is this is a fluke? Or was he lacking from a chance to really play? Did the Bills throw in the towel on him too early with Wade Phillips?
No.

Todd was replacing a legend in Buffalo and he really never did get a chance.
Yeah, but somebody had to. Collins is having a good stretch right now because he's taking advantage of the opportunity he's been granted and nobody knows how to game plan him (plus he was going against a cover 2 in the Minny game). The clock will hit midnight soon enough.
I remember I saw him 4 years ago in a Chiefs uni and was astounded he was still around. He'll be done soon.
Todd Collins is one lucky pastard. He has been making a very nice salary for over ten years now and his body does not have the physical toll on it that others may have.
Dude is going to retire with a fat bank account and enjoy 50+ years of retirement. We should all be so lucky.
Collins was terrible early in his career. He played scared and threw the ball into the turf or at his wr's feet 50% of the time. If he was so good, how come it took him another 10+ years to get a shot to play? The Bills were right to cut him and move on. The mistake they made was drafting him in the first place to be Kelly's successor.
As for his current success, you see a lot of these geezer qb's who look great all of a sudden in their mid-to-late 30's (i.e. Gannon, Testaverde, etc.). The reason is because they have been around the game, observing, and doing it for so long in the NFL that their experience has finally outweighed their initial physical (or mental limitations). These guys weren't ready to be starters in their 20's and most teams can't wait around for 10 years for the light to go on for a guy.
