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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Great stuff. Just post made up bull**** and see if anyone notices.
Four of the five most-watched games this season involve the Cowboys. And only two of them were when Dallas faced one of their NFC East rivals, when there’s a long-standing rivalry.
Most watched NFL games in 2016:
1. DAL-WASH: 35.1M viewers
2. DAL-PIT: 28.9M
3. DAL-GB: 28.0M
4. DET-MIN: 27.6M
5. DAL-NYG: 27.5M
The 35.1 million viewers who watched Dallas host Washington on Thursday made it the most-watched regular-season NFL game on Fox history. And according to NFL spokesman Greg Aiello, it’s the most-watched non-playoff game since Thanksgiving 1995, a game that saw the Kansas City Chiefs travel to – where else? – Dallas.
A lot of people are tuning in to watch the Dallas Cowboys and their rookie stars. After the first few weeks of this NFL season, as television ratings numbers showed a decline in viewership, particularly for primetime games, there were a lot of theories as to why. The league believed it was primarily related to folks’ insatiable appetite for information about the 2016 Presidential election and people watching channels like CNN, Fox News and MSNBC.
We learned earlier this NFL season that even as the league was seeing a decline in ratings (they did come back up after the Nov. 8 presidential election), there was one way to almost guarantee lots of viewers: make sure the Dallas Cowboys were involved.
That was proven true again on Sunday evening, as not only was the Cowboys’ last-second divisional round loss to the Green Bay Packers the highest-rated game of the four NFL playoff games this weekend, it was the highest-rated divisional round game on any network in 20 years.
Here's the issue with your articles, all of the Dallas games they picked where either when they were the sole national game on in the time slot or a specialty game:
Dallas v. Washington - Thanksgiving
Dallas v. Pittsburgh - Fox National Late
Dallas v. Green Bay - Fox National Late
Dallas v. NY Giants - Sunday Night Football
If you're only by going by the numbers when they are the only option then of course their draw is going to look good, but what happened when they were up again other options?
Dallas v. Philadelphia - 9.65 Rating (3rd -Week 17)
Dallas v. Baltimore - 10.2 Rating (3rd - Week 11)
Dallas v. Cincinnati - 12.1 Rating (1st - Week 5)
Dallas v. Washington - 11.0 (3rd - Week 2)
Any good team can pull big numbers when they are the only game on, but when Dallas is H2H with other game options they don't have the pull they once did. That's not say they are bad or don't have a national audience because they do, but it has lessened.
COMING SOON...

I expect both these games to be shoot outs and both close. People that think NE is going to roll over Pitt are wrong, Pitt has a great QB, a great receiver and a great RB, they're going to score a bunch of points.
Turnovers will probably decide both games as the offenses of all 4 teams are basically unstoppable. Which for me is kind of a problem, I find today's game nowhere near as good as it used to be, pass happy game with teams going up and down the field all day. Anyway I think it'll be NE 38 Pitt 35 and Atlanta 35 GB 31

Do you think KC's defense is that much better than New England's?

No, but I wouldn't predict KC to hold Pitt to 6 FG's if they played again this week, unusual for Pitt to bog down in the red zone time after time after moving it very well between the 20's. Both Pitt and NE did not have their A games last week. For NE, Brady was off and they had 3 turnovers, doubt that happens again. And Pitt scored 16 on NE without Rothlisberger in October, they should do better with him.
My favorite team for this playoffs was Dallas I really like Dak Prescott; that GB vs DAL games was great. Dak didn't look like a rookie at all specially after that drive with 1:35 left to tie the game anyways I think it will be PIT vs ATL Matty Ice really wants a ring and he will probably play lights out and on the AFC side I, like a lot of us HATE the patriots also the bumble bees (Ben, Brown and Bell) will be hard to cover.
Bills fan since the 90'S it all begin with tecmo super bowl...

Dallas is the biggest draw in the NFL when it comes to TV Ratings:
