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

Josh may be part of the cause that Diggs is off the Bills roster - Cover 1
I would agree pressure is not something that is going to help Allen think clearly. So bogging down his brain yes I can see that happening...but not the actual forced throws being a symptom because he was forcing them to everyone is where I am at. It's pretty across the board Allen will try to make a low percentage big ass play in favor of a first down at times. So are you saying that is Diggs fault? Because I think that is poor coaching putting Josh Allen in a better position to succumb to himself as opposed to teaching him to rely on the team and take smaller steps. You can have Josh Allen and still know how to take baby steps towards your goals. We don't. It hurts.
You think that is gone now because Diggs is gone?
I think he was doing that much better later in the season which is why we won 6 of the last 7

Agreed, but people don’t understand that Josh cleaned that up and that was the catalyst for the playoff run. I’m not sure if it was Allen’s or Brady’s coaching to decision to intentionally not throw to Diggs, or Diggs lack of play or maybe just maybe Diggs hit the proverbial wall mid-season.
He wasn’t hurt and wasn’t double teamed and he took himself out every other play. Did he give up or did his body give up? I kinda believe it was the wall because he wanted to win so badly, but who knows?
I’ll miss his talent but I’m glad he’s gone, the entire situation was too much of a distraction!

He coulda stayed and possibly declined further then get traded for next to nothing. Now there is wide eyed anticipation for the WR room. Also, who else is excited for Kincaid year 2?
as far as Josh being responsible or not. Word salad . Who cares. Who is the face of the franchise… Josh. Now let Josh make an all pro out of a new set of hands…. Or sets of hands.

I will add this, from almost everything I’ve seen on all the talk shows or articles I’ve read almost all are saying this is on Diggs and the Bills just had had enough! And most all agreed that getting a second for him pretty amazing.

The 2nd round pick is nice. But for this trade to be a success it will be because of addiction by subtraction. Which it very well may be. Diggs seemed to be like a nimbostratus that is now lifted.

The 2nd round pick is a LOT more than "nice".
As I detailed here, it was a steal by Beane as compared to LAC trading Kennan Allen for next to nothing. Aging WR's do not have much trade value.
The fairly predictable draft point value, the Bills got about 424 point value for (almost certainly more than 400 points) Diggs while LAC got only 74 for the equally talented Keenan Allen.
With the realization that Diggs value has only one way to go...DOWN.
That's why Houston chopped off the end of his contract and made him a one year rental instead of committing to anything past this year.
No matter what, this trade sure looks like a BIG WIN for the Bills.
Josh Allen has 21 passing TDs, 6 Rushing TDs, 1 Receiving TD, and 4 interceptions in the playoffs. 2,723 passing yards. 563 Rushing yards. Passing stats per game second only to Mahomes. Overall stats superior to Mahomes.
Diggs hasn't caught a playoff TD since the January 2021 against the Ravens. He had 7 yards receiving in the greatest ever playoff game. Yet it is never Mr. Commitment's fault.
