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

I still don't get why they traded Portis. I guess Shanahan thinks he can put any shmoe in the backfield and get 1400 yards out of him. So far he's been right about that.
Kinda early to say.
The QB move seems to have worked out for them...but it's only been a season.
The Portis move looks pretty bad...but they've been getting star RBs every year, it seems.
it's harder to find stud Corners than it is to find stud HBs. The redskins got absoutley ripped off. I think the Broncos got the edge in a straight 1 for 1. PLUS, they get a 2nd rounder.
Yeah, not to mention Portis doesnt even fit Joe Gibbs style of running.

I'm just letting you know that you have been given 2 points for telling Wys AKA Mark to kill himself.
As far as mistakes I'm thinkin its when they signed Daryl Gardener to a big contract knowing he was a turd. The Portis trade worx wonders for their defense. With Delta Oneil falling from grace and a probowl season in 2001 with 9 ints they really needed a cb. Funny thing is they dont want Delta to play cb anymore they just want him to be a 3rd or 4th wr.(which in itself could be their biggest mistake) Last year without a top tier cb their defense still finished top ten i believe, so Champ should improve the secondary big time. Add the fact they could draft a very good safety in the 2nd round with their extra pick and that defense is rockin.
I don't see Denver as being "foolish" at all in their deal. Sure, it hurts to see a guy with numbers like Portis' (Numbers he attained missing 3 or so games per year, no less) being traded, but Bailey is a DB you have to go and get if he's available. You don't find a DB like that available all the time. To boot, Shanahan has been able to plug in back after back each year prior to Portis, and they'd run like crazy. I don't really see it being that much different this year, although I wouldn't expect Droughns or whoever to run up 1,500 this coming season.
