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!

I worry that Indy may let Denver win next weekend. They have the third seed locked up and will play the 6th seed in the wild card round. The Bills may be the hottest team in the AFC now, while the Broncos have been losing to the likes of Oakland and KC. I imagine Indy would much rather face Denver in the WC round then the Bills, and that's now in their control.

Exactly. Indy would be crazy to come out and beat Denver. It could haunt them if we were to make the playoffs. Our defense matches up very well with their offense.

Also remeber that since the Broncs need to win the have to show Indy their gameplan bc they cant afford to hold anything back
COMING SOON...

I don't see Indy "purposely" losing a game to avoid playing us. Yeah, we are on a hot streak but you don't tank a game for that reason. I think they may sit their starters, but that would be to protect them, not to avoid winning and playing the Bills imo.

I agree...I can't imagine a team losing to another just for the opportunity to get the chance to play them in the playoffs...those kinds of things usually come back to haunt a team...I can see Indy playing at about a 75 percent level, just to stay well-oiled for the playoffs....that 75 percent may be just enough to beat the broncos, but that denver crowd will be raucous...
I think we have a better chance of St Louis knocking off the Jets...hopefully the NY media can really get under Pennington's skin this week and make him lose his mind...A Jet implosion at the end of a season isn't unheard of, and I think that may be in order when the JEts visit the Rams next week
So we would hold the tie-breaker of "Common Opponents Played" against the Jets right? (IF we win out and they lose out).
We both will end up with the same Division Record (3-3).
Their AFC record will be better than ours (theirs is 7-5 ours is 5-6 right now). Just curious... I've seen a lot of people saying we'd win by Conference Record but we cannot pass them...

Yeah, I was looking at the conference record as well and they have us beat.
What exactly is the deal if they lose next week and we win? Is it 100% for sure we get in and they don't??
