    I think 8-8 might win this crappy division

    The Jets suck
    Miami sucks
    New Enlgand is meh
    The Bills are the unknown of the division so far.

    I think this week will truly tell the fans how good the Bills really are. There aren't really any "must win" games this early in the season, but this could be looked back on as one later down the road. I hope Marrone and company take everything that was learned about Fitz while was a QB in Buffalo, and use it against him.

    it might take at least 9, we have to at least split with the Patsies this year to have a shot at the division.

      San Diego showed the rest of the league how to beat the Bills.

      Stack the box, crowd the line of scrimmage and make EJ beat you over the top.

      I think it gets worse before better, unless EJ suddenly wakes the F up.

        I have confidence that EJ is not a complete numbskull, and will see on film how many plays he missed. If he can correct even just a few, the team would've been in a position to win.

            I will not argue.

              jets d looked like its going to cause the bills problem. they were good stopping the run and making qb's throw off their back foot. they are 1-2, but i don't think they are that bad. it all comes down to which geno shows up any given week. the one who gift wraps a pick 6 or the one who can put up 21 points in the first quarter.

                I don't think he's a numbskull either but I'm not sure if he can correct inaccuracy. He just cant seem to laser/thread passes. He seems to consistently lob a ball high.

                  I was thinking the same thing about the Jets defense. That is not a good matchup for the Bills and EJ.

                    I'm not worried about that as much as I am consistently missing WIDE open receivers. By missing, I mean not seeing/throwing to them at all.

                      I don't think San Diego showed the rest of the league anything. Everyone already knew that's the way to beat EJ. He made enough plays over the top in the first two games. He didn't last week. Can he become consistent? I don't know!

                        Really. Well I can recall about three big throws he has made in three games, and two of them were great catches by Williams and Woods. Everything else has been short easy throws.

                        I'm listening. Please tell me the one's I have missed.

                          And I doubt you are going to see many more 190 yd rushing days until EJ gets it done.

                            You're crazy if you think the Pats are only going to win 6 more games. They'll probably get 4 out of the div alone, if for no other reason than the reality that the rest of us really suck.

                            Pats will have double digit wins again.

                              They will have a test against CIN, who benefit from their early bye to lick their many wounds. WR Marvin Jones might see his first action, and LB Burfict might be available. CIN's OL has played well - one sack, and no hits at all on Dalton. That's an amazing stat after 3 games - zero qb hits, with a rookie center and missing starting RG Zeitler. Fans here are glad that Jay Gruden and his play calls has moved on - his "take what they give you" philosophy instead of using your talent to take it to the opponent. New OC Hue Jackson is doing a decent job. He needs a wake-up call on 3rd and short...as do many do...stopping this deep hand off so the rb can "see the holes."

                              Line up quickly and pound with a strong back and a fullback. Or sneak. In 2012, Ben Jarvis Green-Ellis was 13 of 14 with that plan, and Gruden tossed that success into the heap in 2013. Madness...

                              However, there is a stark fact - CIN and BUF must run neck and neck for serving up duds in prime time contests. I'd guess NE will be the home favorite, barring something negative happening to them this coming Sunday.
