"Expert" Picks

Looks like none of the "experts" think the Bills have a chance this weekend.

This is the perfect setting for the upset of the week.

I will be sure to lmao if Buffalo, Oakland, Cleveland, GB, Houston, SF, Arizona, KC, Tenn & Jets win.

Re: "Expert" Picks

It's either going to be a Miami blowout like the experts predict, or a Buffalo upset. We'll see Sunday.

Re: "Expert" Picks

nobody on Inside the NFL picked the bills either. We're playing at Miami, no surprise.

and Detriot. They were Schlereth away from being a clean sweep by the overrated Bears.

I still think the game for the Bills lays in Losman's hands. If he can get that connection to Lee Evans down again, especially with Daniels questionable, OH
NOES!!!

Course on the other side of the ball, Buffalo's going to have to stop Brown, and force Culpepper to beat them. So far it looks like Culpepper is a little rattled, but imo, he's better than Frerotte.

It's on Willis' hands IMO. If he can run successfully it puts less pressure on JP opens up the pass. The fins may have to stack up the line and that's when JP and Evans can rip apart your db's. Without a run game, it'll be hard.

I only took the ones that were unanimous across the board. Schlereth picked the Lions, and screwed it up.

Re: "Expert" Picks

I also think Miami's D can't beat themselves, if they can communicate and not blow coverages, they can focus on implementing the defense/will like it's intended to in their 3-4/4-3 hybrid. Call me a homer, but I believe the secondary has more upside than some peeps give them credit, it's just getting down the complex defense is currently the enemy for the new faces in the secondary. I do agree w/ Justa, the Bills momentum will be on Willis to set the tone. I think Willis will be a bit more dangerous this year then in past, since Fairchild is trying to utilize a leaner McGahee in different ways for some positive results. We first have to control the edges and force him to get his yards through the middle and hopefully shut him down from there. We'll also have to be wary of the plays Losman makes on his feet as well.

Does NE's DL suck that bad, or did we open some holes for Willis?
Does their OL suck that bad, or was Brady taking too long?
Are the Fin's lines better than NE's?
These are things I keep thinking about.

Hey, PC. You PUMPED!!!!??

I'm psyched to watch these two teams go head to head once again. Regardless the outcome, Fish Week is one of the most exciting weeks in Bills football.

I don't have answers to the above questions, but I know it may not be the same situation the other year when Milloy got booted and the Bills steamrolled a bewildered Patriots, but I'm sure the Branch situation affected Brady to an extent. It will be interesting to see what Patriots team shows up this week, to see if the Pats are truly a team at 100%

It's called the first game of the year. Teams haven't played a full game in months, routines have to be re-defined, habits have to be re-established. It usually takes till the fifth week of the season for teams to start to seperate and define some kinda order.Week one is no idication of who's good and who's not.

News flash... You don't have to be an expert to figure that one out!

Oh I'm really pumped. Want to know how utterly pathetic I am? There's a 1000% chance of me getting laid tonight (and it's been a while,) but I still have the game on my mind. I REALLY NEED TO FOCUS AND REORGANIZE MY PRIORITES, lol. Jeez.
