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

Agreed to an extent. If the defense stays healthy, there is no reason why they shouldn't make a huge jump. A top 10 overall finish would be beyond huge. I'm not looking for miracles here.
wow some of you boys are really cranky. Everyone sucks and everyone needs to be fired.
take a step back and evaluate yourselves, so many of you sound like little children.
Last year we were decimated by injuries. Our O had numerous 3 and outs and couldn't sustain drives nor could it score TD's in the red zone. Yet our D was able to keep us in most games throughout the year, or until the 4th quarter when they were dog tired and physically exhausted from being on the field for 35 - 40 minutes.
If our O could of just scored some TD's instead of FG's we would of made the playoffs last year.
Our D will be improved. I could cae less if its top 10 or not just as long as we win games and look better doing it.
If that's what you're gauging it on, fine, I guess. Personally I could give two ****s about three out of the four (especially considering the style defense we run).
If we're mid-20's in all the yards, but close to 10 in pts allowed I'll be OK with that.

We will see about Perry Fewell. I'm not a big fan of his and he has had excuses made for him in the past, but those days are gone. Make better calls on defense or get your ass out of here.
I really like the fact that they added some talented pieces to the defense. Stroud in particular as he is exactly what the defense needed last year. I am not totally sold on Kawika Mitchell, but there is no question he is an upgrade over Ellison. McKelvin could be a huge addition and Ellis has potential to help as well.
Adding in some healthy and more experienced bodies from last season should be a huge benefit as well, so the defense is much improved on paper.
If Stroud misses any time though I think teams will still be able to run up the gut of the defense - just like last year. I would have looked to adding an upgrade to Kyle Williams in reserve of Stroud but maybe the front office feels this wasn't a concern.
