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 bills actually score 2 TD and look capable with the starting unit and brohm doesn't make a fool of himself? do we all revise the 3-13 to 13-3 or do we nitpick the colts and how they weren't trying?
i do that every year regardless. with the 120 to 1 odds, it is a good $5 bet. you lose nothing if they don't. and you get a nice payout if they do. hey, there is a better chance that $5 ends up $600 than a $1 lotto ticket ends up a winner.

I just want to be ahead of the curve.
Ahead of the curve...I can appreciate that sentiment. I will say that it is going to have to be that the Colts weren't trying. The era of optimism is gone. I tend to be optimistic, just because being a pessimist is miserable for me.
I tend to fancy myself realistic, and I would have to say if Brohm looks good tonight, there is no way for us not to contemplate his starting for this football team. I would guess that that is very close to where Chan is. I know that many think he is a moron, and that there are those that feel he has to be stupid with a southern accent. I think he is a sharp offensive mind, and that it looked like he got kicked in the crotch after the Washington game.
I would guess that there has been some time going over game-time decision making with Trent. As we all, pretty much, concur; the guy looks the part. In practice he looks good, but when there are opponents across the line of scrimmage from him, he breaks down. I really can't blame him, he has been concussed twice, and whether posters believe it or not, there is more to life that football. Trent is a smart guy, and he knows that being concussed multiple times could cause permanent damage.
I think that it was easy for him to make adjustments, gaining the top spot in the "pecking order," but after Chan saw one shot of him in a game, thought it time to reevaluate. He may not be completely through, as it was the first preseason game, which would be why TE is starting. You can't completely shatter his confidence, in case he really is the best.
Before I hear from the president of the TE Crusade, I know that Chan said put the short passes on him, and I love that. Remember when Trent would have a horrible game? How could you forget? Well in the presser, Jauron would always say things like "You'll have to ask Trent." This, more than any of his chicken **** decisions, turned me on him. You are the coach...be accountable, don't throw a young QB to the wolves, regardless of fault, which I think Jauron never accepted his share. He was the coward that never made a gutsy call.
Regardless of where it puts me with all of the detractors, I am still pulling for Brohm.

IMO, that's coaches speak.

As much as I hated Dick, he did at times accept fault during pressers. Although he did throw Trent under the bus at one point saying that Trent should pull the trigger...... his insisting on keeping Trent as the starting QB said a whole lot especially after Fewell and AVP benched Trent as soon as Dick was fired.

you're better off getting 5 $1 scratch tickets.

Is Brohm even going to get a fair crack? That is the question... Is Brohm going to be playing with the back up OL and 2nd string receivers? If so then this QB competition won't be fair.

It's only the preseason and the Colts didn't have all their starters on the field.

in seriousness, i am of the opinion that if you aren't gameplanning for a team, you aren't really playing. As a result, i think you are just trying out things..and yes, you can get it right and look good, or you can look bad.
Over the 4 games we'll knkow what we have. but game to game, it'll be hard to decipher.
for example, the colts really don't have to do anything but try out backups and rest starters. they already have their chemistry set, and they don't need this at all. a team like the redskins, need to play their starters more etc and probably look better durin gthe preseason but that's no comment on their regular season viability.
