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

i totally dislike tebow's religious righteousness that he and his fans love about themselves.
That being said, i am curious on why he is being taken through the ringer so bad. Even our dear Losman and Edwards were given more than enough chances to prove themselves. Yet today most people are all saying tebow is finished in 3-5 weeks.
Just from a football standpoint, i don't think that's fair. it's the hardest position in sports at the highest level. most guys need to get some time to get acclimated as the starter.
Yes, his stats are crap. but he was taken in the first round. and with that comes a lot of second chances. i feel like the denver management is just parading him out there without much help just to prove they don't want him because they didn't draft him.
I don't think he'll be a star or anything, but i don't think he's getting a fair shake. alot of decent qbs have started slowly and were left for dead too early. if tebow is serious about getting better, he may find a more forgiving place next year elsewhere.
Even Losman and Edwards worse days' statistically, were probably better than tebow's best day. he will get more chances, i just dont think they'll come from denver, the coach and FO werent around when he was drafted, so they have little invested in him, as far as pride.

If you make something "Idiot-proof", they'll only make better idiots!
i don't know. losman had a way of having 89-100 yards through 3.5 quarters of play and then generate another 65-80 yards in garbage time. i feel like he definitely had some 150 yard games even after garbage time when the tides were turning against him.
edwards stats probably had higher completion percentage since he was throwing 4 yards every throw, but the same pitiful yardage.
but both those guys got 20+ games to make a case for themselves. Tebow is getting about 8.
He'll get a second shot but you have to keep in mind guys like Boller don't ignite fan bases and split locker rooms like Tebow is doing. Note Im not saying Denver's locker room is split but read some of their post game comments, they want to win not just go out there and get their asses kicked.
Decisive QB's don't get 2nd chances all that often though look at recent history with Leaf and Russell.
"they want to win not just go out there and get their asses kicked"
He will be in the CFL in a year or 2 and out of work shortly after that. I am amazed nobody gave cleo lemon a chance after his stint up here. He is in shape and ready to go, he just could not adapt to the canadian game.
Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Tebow again helps the Bronco's get a W. Had to pass more then he has had to in the past. Some nice throws from him, including one that was dropped near the endzone that would have been a TD.
