Guess who doesn't have a single person picking them to win...

"Kevin Patra's power pick: Dolphins (http://www.nfl.com/teams/miamidolphins/profile?team=MIA) at Bills (http://www.nfl.com/teams/buffalobills/profile?team=BUF). I don't believe EJ Manuel (http://www.nfl.com/player/ejmanuel/2539228/profile) can do it in back-to-back weeks -- this time against an actual NFL defense. "

I saw this. I am more than happy to be an underdog. Let's pin this to billboard and beat the fins by 20.

I prefer the Bills being underdogs in this game. Fuel for the fire! Marrone isn't the tyoe of coach tompost this kind of drivel in the locker room but in an age of social media and absolute constant web connectivity, the players read this kind of thing. Not all but some.

i'd rather be the underdog the whole season and wear the no respect badge than getting a lot of hype and burning and crashing like the last two good starts.

They seem to forget that we have a real NFL Defense, too. And the Tannehill is still in therapy from the ***** slapping he took here last year.

Anyone else notice that only one of them got their "power pick" right last week? Kevin Patra is about to go 0-2.

Bills at home are no joke. You guys are gonna be loud & proud this Sunday. I'm just hoping for zero turnovers from the Fins and I thunk that'll get Miami the win. Either way, it should be a great game

Makes no sense. We beat them twice last yr, we have home advantage. They're one of few teams we might have qb edge over. We have a better defense. Don't get it.

Can't say I blame him. No reason to believe EJ can be consistent until he proves it.

That being said, this city embellishes the underdog role. So bring it. It's not going to be an easy game, but no one expected either team to win last week so we'll see what happens.

If Kevin Patra posted this here, we'd roast his ass for trolling then laugh him off.

Until proven otherwise, he's right about EJ. On the other hand, Tannehill has to face his quickly forming arch nemesis in our backyard...

So first it was "Jay Cutler Was The Most Catastrophic Quarterback Of Week 1" now its "Chicago doesn't have an actual NFL defense"?? They really don't have much respect for Chicago.

I guess these guys have never heard of homefield advantage.

Miami had it last week against the Pats*

Buffalo has it this week against the Fins, and it is going to be huge.

listening to howard simon this morning. Tannehill's yards per completion vs the bills in the last 4 starts has been 5.24yards at its HIGHEST. Ej last week was 7.9.

The yards per completion range is 7.5-7.9 is in the russell wilson category and considered good. 6.4 was the lifetime of trent edwards. so 5yards per attempt at its best over 4 starts says something about tannehill when he plays the bills.

the bills also abused a team in chaos last year. they had suspended like half their line when we sacked them 6 times. Probably not a repeatable endevour with their upgrades at OL and RB. However, some teams and players just struggle against certain teams. let's hope that keeps up.

With Miami handing the Pats their ass Sunday, I can see how the national media stuffed suits would pick the Dolphins. However, I laugh at "Power Picks." My "Ferocious Forecast" has the Bills winning this Sunday 16-13.

Well before the game last week I would have agree'ed with the comment Chicago doesn't have an NFL defense. I think I referred to it as putrid last week a number of times.

I like the game EJ had last week, I would like to see him do it against a better defense though.

Bills have to stop the run so Tennehill is forced to be more than a game manager. Force him to try and win the game for them.

Bills on the other hand have to stop creating penalties. Schwartz needs to hit Tannehill. Mario needs to remind him about last years sack.
Henderson could have his hands full if he faces Wake. Is Lee Smith out?

Tannehill's an enigma...you just never know what to expect from him week to week. Take the last 4 games of 2013 season--dude went HAM at Pitt and vs New England, then produced 7 total points against the Bills and Jets--both of whom had nothing to play for. He could put up 300 yds, or 87 yds, and neither would surprise me.

No one will pick the Bills next week either the way SD is playing against the Seahawks. Good.
