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!
This is only a test
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

Not this time. His magic has run out. The Pats secondary was decimated with injuries as it was but now their star CB Ty Law is on IR and they are poised for a beating of monumental proportions at the hands of the Colts next week.
Their #2 starting CB, Ty Poole is also on IR. The key here will be the weather. NE in January is much, much worse weather than Indy played in all year. Their offense will not be the same next week. So although New England's defense won't be at full strength, neither will Indy's offense. Personally I can't wait for this game and I really don't care what happens either way. If Indy wins, that's cool because I hate the Pats. If the Pats win, that's cool too. I live in Massachusetts and will be able to go to a cool party the next week, get free beer, then heckle the Pats fans if they lose.
If Indy get past the Pats, they win the SB imo. After watching this game, I think right now their offense is the best I've ever seen, even better than the '99 Rams ever were. It is obscene. Yeah their D isn't very good, but what offense will they face that can keep up?

Their D is getting better each game though. Freeney is an animal!!! I wish we had him!
Indy certainly has a more explosive offense than the '99 Rams, but the real test will be to see if they can win in the trenches vs. either New England or Pittsburgh. Those two teams can dominate the line on both sides of the ball, and will be the real tests for Indy. Indy's o-line looked like a brick wall today against Denver, but New England has been able to penetrate their o-line every year. When they've been able to do that, Manning has looked like a run of the mill QB. Who knows what will happen this year without Law, Poole, and a hurting Seymour. IMO, Pittsburgh is the team to beat right now.

Indy's D does some really good things though. They will get in Brady's face and make the Pats look like a pop-warner squad next week. I can't wait.
Im not convinced the Colts win this game but I hope they do. Last year the Pats stopped the Colts by mugging there recievers all game. This is gonna be a good game and Im excited about it already.
On another note, man can Bill Polian put an offense together or what. He put a good one together for us and it looks like he's has fine tuned his craft with this one. He has outdone himself with the Colts.
The Polian Curse
"They're a very special group of men. Cherish them, you will not see their like again."
February 4, 1993 Bill Polian at his closing press conferance after being dismissed as GM of the Buffalo Bills by Ralph Wilson.
Their D is getting better each game though. Freeney is an animal!!! I wish we had him!
Freeney is good but I think he's in an ideal situation for the type of player he is- the Colts almost always have big leads, so the other team is forced to pass- this allows him to tee off on the QB without worrying too much about yards. Who cares if an RB pops off an 8 yard run when you're up by 21?
Of course this is also a reason why Indy's D is ranked so low- most of the time they're playing prevent against an offense that's forced to pass, so the yard totals go up. It's difficult to tell how good their D would be with an average offense.
If football fans, especially Bills fans, have learned anything these past few years, it is to never ever count out the Patriots. The key to this game, will be whether or not the Colts can stop Corey Dillon because if they cannot, the Pats will drive the ball down their throats, and keep that high powered offense on the sideline. The Patriots offense is pretty damn good in their own right, and the Colts cannot afford to fall behind early in the game. It is crucial that the Colts play with a lead. Manning is 1-6 against Bill Belichick, and we all know that it is all about the coaching and the game plan, as evidenced by our own team falling to a team of second and third string players.
Still, all considered, it is very difficult to imagine the Patriots coming out on top this time.
In weather conditions like that, you may expect Indy to give NE a big dose of "Edge" to set everything else up. Like Denver, NE has to pick its poison. Denver, time and again, bit hard on Play Action.
