small piece from profootball talk

Or it could be a team like the Buffalo Bills, who won't be intimidated by the Patriots if they hook up in the playoffs, since they play them twice each year.

 

 

 

The Bills are an intriguing bunch. One of the hottest teams at the end of last season, Buffalo still couldn't finagle a playoff-clinching home win against a Steelers team that had nothing to gain in Week Seventeen.

 

 

 

With a new starting quarterback comes new hope. But even though we don't disagree with comparisons of J.P. Losman to a young Brett Favre, the future Hall of Famer wasn't exactly the most polished piece of passing perfection in his first three seasons as the starter in Green Bay.

 

 

 

So we expect plenty of rough spots this year for Adam Sandler's baby brother, sprinkled with a periodic glimpse of potential greatness to come.

 

 

 

Until that greatness emerges, look for opposing defenses to stack up against a rushing attack led by Willis McGahee, to whom G.M. Tom Donahoe proudly can point as the product of the pilfering of a first-round pick from the Falcons for Peerless Price. McGahee likely won't churn up huge numbers until Losman can deliver the ball to guys who'll enjoy single coverage when the strong safety trots up to the line to stop Willis.

 

 

 

On defense, the departure of oversized tackle Pat Williams opens the door (and a big spot at the buffet line) for Ron Edwards, a third-round pick in 2001 who'll team with Sam Adams to help clog the spaces between the tackles. Beyond Williams, the other 10 regulars are back from a unit that was second only to Pittsburgh in 2004 in yards allowed, and that was responsible for a conference-high 24 takeaways.

 

 

 

If the Bills are to ascend into playoff contention, it means that the New York Jets will coast back to reality.

He does look like he could be related to Sandler.

 

On Madden 2006, his photo is horrible.
