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 Bills plan to keep Angelo Crowell on the strong side this year.
Kawika Mitchell will be a 253-pound ton of bricks coming off the weak side. Paul Posluszny and John DiGiorgio will battle it out again at MLB, with backup Keith Ellison likely coming in on nickel downs. Mitchell and Poz have the best IDP situations, though Crowell made 126 tackles at SLB in 2007.
According to Chris Brown, Crowell will stay put at strong side. Mitchell played weak side for the Giants and covered passes and did the stuff a weakside linebacker does in the Tampa 2. Mitchell says he's familiar with the Tampa 2 and comfortable with it.
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.
I think that they looked at how bad their run D was and what the Giants--who run a sort-of hybrid that has a lot of Tampa 2 concepts but incorporates a lot more blitzing--and decided that they need to go away from the pure Tampa 2 scheme that they have been running (which is really similar to what T.Dungy has been running in Indy) and incorporate some of the things that have worked for the Giants D.
Not a bad idea, actually.
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.
a blitz is the play call. we can be more aggressive (and we often were late in the year) and rush guys and still be in the tampa 2.
kawika on the weak side is a friggen LOAD. i think the idea is that we were shading our backers to the weakside and getting killed for it, and now we won't have to.
adding stroud, mccargo over tripps, mitchel over ellison and poz over dipizza is a LOT of beef and still plenty of quicks.
