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

Rumor: Matt Cassel Is Going To Get Cut Next, Percy Harvin Too
Re: Rumor: Matt Cassel Is Going To Get Cut Next, Percy Harvin Too
EJ will be cut and Cassel as backup to Taylor. We all know Taylor will be injured with a pulled hamstring, blowout knee, separated shoulder or busted throwing hand. Good thing we have a good backup in Cassel.
If Taylor has a great year and takes the Bills to the playoffs, he's going to demand a huge new contract and that is a fact of life in America, not Montreal.
If this is the case he deserves to be paid for sure. But I am not sure the words huge come to mind after one season starting in the NFL.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
The most interesting piece of the contract, also tied to Taylor's playing time, is a voidable clause. If Taylor plays in over 50 percent of the Bills' plays in either 2015 or 2016, and remains on the roster five days following the 2016 Super Bowl, the third year of the contract voids. This clause would allow, if he received significant playing time in either 2015 or 2016, Taylor to become a free agent for 2017.

simms body of work last year, looks on par with cassel. so to me, it makes sense that simms is the same but cheaper as cassel. and is a great emergency QB to have.

Let's see what he does in Week 1 before we worry about Week 2 etc.

So what's your point? We should extend him now just in case he does? I'm thinking the odds of that happening are zero.

You can't give a guy a lot of guaranteed money and then just cut him before he even plays. Harvin made the final roster for 2015 the moment he signed his deal.
