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 Jaguars did a better job shoring up their o-line than the Bills did.
We drafted 3 go-lineman last year and added Incognito this year, draft is coming up...
Line has been addressed..
All the whiners need to find some new material..
Vets flocking to Jax's new offensive line coach???
“A calm and modest life brings more happiness than the pursuit of success combined with constant restlessness,"
Makes you wonder why there was such a lack of interest with Wisniewski and Parnell, considering they had to resort to sign with the Jaguars for just one year deals.
Rex Ryan took a good team all the way down to 4 - 12.
Another brilliant Bills fan.
Yeah se went 9-7 by hiring Schwartz. On the other hand, how was Marrones OL and offense? The unit he was supposedly an expert of?
Marrone freaked out when Orton decided to quit . IMO , as bad as our OL and O were, Orton made Marrones offense look ugly instead of horrendous. Now that Orton wasn't coming back to bail Marrone, exercise the opt out clause so he can fool another team into thinking he was solely responsible for 9-7. He fooled you.
We shall see soon enough how Marrones OL will up against Rexys D in England.
What would excite you, giving Jermey Parnell a 5-year $32 million deal? That's a great personnel pick-up! Do you think? That's a undrafted guy who is headed into his 6th season after only starting 7 games total throughout his entire career. I guess you could technically call that a veteran if you wanted to stretch a point like the OP.
Damn right Marrone had nothing to do with that, though. That's a money deal backwards and forwards.

Only the Bills or their fans would call a 5th round pick, a 7th round pick and a guy who hasn't played in 2 years "addressing" the OL.
But then..these are the same people who thought Sam Young and Colin Brown "addressed" the OG position after Levitre left.
People wonder why this team is chronically a bottom 10 (if not bottom 5) offense...the answer isn't hard to figure out.

Well scratch that..for some it is.
Wait, the Bills didn't add a good OL coach as well? And so what if Incognito hasn't played in (really) a year and a half? You think he forgot? His addition immensely improves the LG position as well as the LT and C positions, if not the RG position since Wood can now help out there. And having Urbik back at RG will help Henderson or Kujo out at RT.
And the Bills are chronically in the bottom 10 on offense because they don't have a franchise QB.

I'm not real sure what we have but it's worth a roll of the dice.
Remember back to the game against the Houston JJ Watts'es. Marrone made a big talk about suiting up his best linemen in whatever combination every week, one of them was Urbik. But Chris Williams went down and so he started....started....the previously ever inactive rookie Richardson, against Houston, against the JJ Watt'ses.
He'd go on to keep going with Richardson stubbornly week after week as the under prepared kid was ravaged, making lip service about winning now.
Yeah, we have misfits, but the bumbling stubborn Marrone isn't here at least to mess them up. Run blocking is easier when developing, and so, we run, with no Marrone.
They addressed the OL by shucking Marrone and the useless Morris plenty.

Not to mention a Fullback & Tight End were added to help provide blocking, but I think the Change in Coaching & blocking scheme will make the biggest difference between last year & this year.

So an article in "Made Men" by some nobody named Jordan Gonzalez prior to the 2010 season is supposed to be worth something? And besides, half of those guys aren't in the NFL anymore. Never mind that #5, Pat Morris, was the Bills OL coach last year, and sucked royally.
