Not sure if its Fish love, or the typical Bills hate/no respect.

1. The Dolphins are not as bad as they looked in weeks 1-5

2. The Bills are not as bad as they looked in weeks 1-2

3. The Bills are not as good as they looked in weeks 3-6

4. All of the above.

 

I vote 4. But the Bills are favored, should be favored, and should win ....

The game this week will come down to stopping Ajayi and Foster for the Bills and NOT starting the game in a deficit. If we lose any amount of significant ability to play McCoy, Gilly will need to step up. Defense has been pretty darned good and underestimated. Bills have the best red zone defense in the NFL right now. Thus far this season, I'll remain cautiously optimistic.

The only problem I have is with #3. They did look good against teams that were albeit listed as better teams but still won and didn't stop when they were ahead. Good teams keep the foot on the gas pedal.

 

I always worry about miami games since my cross office co-workers is a fins fan.

Its not hate. No one can trust the Bills. They have a long way to go to earn that trust . On the road vs a division rival is a great spot for a disappointing performance .

I have yet to find a game Bills might lose on the schedule. In years and years.

 

But i never look at it like that anymore.

 

I always predict a win. Not the score. Just , somehow some way, a Win !

 

Go Bills !

That applies to every NFL team save for the Pats.

Too close to the truth Promo.

Steelers D is way overrated. Living on reputation. Im not surprised Miami shredded them.

 

Our D is better than Pitt, and for the first time in 23 years we actually have better linebackers than they do (as a unit. Shazier--when healthy is a beast but he wasnt playing)

 

I predict we win by 16, and they show a ton of close ups of Mario benched on the sidelines

Actually it's usu. on the road vs an out of conference opponent that is the mythical " trap / letdown " game. Division games are generally close. Bills won't let down or get caught flat footed, but they will be exposed if Shady can't go.
