    AFC East ESPN blogger Walker: "Why Bills are my sleeper pick for 2012"

    Why Bills are my sleeper pick for 2012, and five reasons they will get over the hump:

    The scene at the AFC coaches' breakfast in Palm Beach, Fla., was fitting.To my far left was New York Jets coach Rex Ryan. He was surrounded by a large group of media who wanted to know how the Jets would handle Tim Tebow-mania and whether they could bounce back from a disappointing 2011.

    that was a solid read.. Pretty much sums up our optimistic views.. The writer actually pays attention, unlike other bloggers.

      as long as mario williams isn't the DE version of Ville Leino, i can't see how this team isn't drastically better. it somehow won 6 games with no defense. No pass rush that makes even the least capable QB look good.

      if they can bring the heat and rotate people so injuries decrease, i see huge things for this team.

          Health is a concern every season. Can we trade for Rusty Jones?

            The curse of Rusty Jones....

            ever since we showed him the door our health issues have seem to be noticeably worse.

            Was it Mulareky or Jauron who wanted him replaced ?

              I dont know if Im just being a homer but I saw us as being close last year, and our defense was putrid. We have beefed up our defensive line, retained out best WR (who also has a very good rapport with Fitz), and have another full offseason under the belts of rookies and veterans alike in terms of cohesiveness, which cant be overlooked. I think it hinges on whether Fitz can get more consistent, and whether our Oline can give him the time to make plays.

                        It was a nice article, but frankly, I'm hoping for a little more than a winning season.
                        I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                        I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                            If you take a look at the Bears, they aren't exactly the bastions of health post-acquiring Jones either...

                            It was Mularkey btw for a buddy of his.

                              In the middle of this madness was Buffalo Bills coach Chan Gailey. His table was relatively empty for most of the hourlong breakfast, with the exception of a few passers-by and this AFC East blogger. Few in the national media cared to know what Gailey and the Bills were up to. They're a small-market team that finished 6-10 last season and hasn't been to the playoffs in 13 years.



                              The scene at the AFC coaches' breakfast in Palm Beach, Fla., was fitting.To my far left was New York Jets coach Rex Ryan. He was surrounded by a large group of media who wanted to know how the Jets would handle Tim Tebow-mania and whether they could bounce back from a disappointing 2011.
