Last Regular Season Meeting
After taking their first lead on Rian Lindell's career-best 56-yard field goal with 3:35 left, the Bills didn't let up. Owens scored on the next possession after Chad Henne threw his first of three interceptions. And Fewell was spotted along the sideline demanding another touchdown, which came after Fred Jackson sealed the rout by scoring on a 7-yard run with 1:20 remaining.
Full recap
Important Storylines
Wildcat Back
Nobody runs the Wildcat quite like the Dolphins. In fact, they’re pretty much the only team that runs the true Wildcat as opposed to just direct snaps to a running back. With Ronnie Brown seemingly healthy and Ricky Williams presumably not high, the Fins will give the Bills’ poor rush defense a heavy dose of the formation.
Trent Edwards vs. 3-4
Dick Jauron, in his infinite wisdom, hardly forced the offense to practice against the 3-4 before playing division opponents. He is a ******. George Edwards’ defense now plays the 3-4 and has given Trent Edwards all the looks in practice since OTAs to hopefully make him successful against the only base defense played in the AFC East.
Henne’s progress
The young QB has the biggest head this side of Ben Roethlisberger (and no, that wasn’t a penis joke). Fins fans hope that the enlarged dome is filled with knowledge and confidence, though Bill Parcells, reportedly, does not seem to fall in line with that thinking. The Dolphins will definitely have a great ground game with their experienced, talented, offensive line. If they are going to place favorably in the competitive AFC East, they’ll need Henne to take the next step.
Bills WRs vs. Fins Secondary
The Bills have Lee Evans… and… uh, that’s pretty much it. Luckily for us, the Dolphins secondary is pretty thin in top-end talent as well. Everyone’s favorite 7th round draft pick, Steve Johnson, didn’t show dick during the preseason yet remains as WR2. He’ll need to step up to take pressure off of Evans and create room for diminutive Roscoe Parrish in the slot.
