    Hoping for a clean game with no injuries

    Win or lose, I'm hoping that both teams will come out clean, and the refs do their job for a change. So far this season I haven't been very impressed with the zebra's skills, but hopefully they've gotten over the preseason by week 3. As for the game itself, if Miami continues to improve their pass D/pass rush, we should be able to pressure the Bills into a Henry versus Ricky duel..and may the best RB win. Then again, with both backs penchant for fumbles, this could be a 10+ turnover game.

    I agree with the whole 'zebra skills' comments...might just be me, but this year seems to be horrendous for the officiating....
    ...and yes, I hope both teams come out of it clean...injuries are a natural part of the game, but I prefer to see the front-lines go at it...no excuses that way...
    I've upped my standards...now up yours

      Ricky "won" last year. We won both games, however, and we're much better this year. I'm expecting a clean game and a big Bills win.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

        phin, no way this turns into a ricky vs henry duel..

        drew will torch the worst pass defense in the league.

          PhinPhan I think they were in mid season form in preseason and I dont think they will get any better. I do agree with you on Hoping for no or no serious injuries though.

            I haven't been overly impressed with the refs this year either. I still have yet to see a ref win or lose a game though. Bad calls and non-calls go both ways. They do seem worse so far this season than usual though.

                If our Secondary plays the way it has, than you're correct, and we'll get blown out. If the Secondary goes back to playing at it's 2002 level however and our pass rush does the same, I think we can make it a good game. You guys have gotten better, but so has our passing game.

                  We'll see. I can point to the failed experiment with zone D as a big part of our troubles in the Secondary, but we'll see Sunday how well that's been tweaked.

                      I'm hoping for no crybaby excuses after we beat the hell out of them.

                        I actually enjoy the excuses.

                          Cheering for injuries...the ultimate hallmark of a true scumbag.

                            I used to. Now they're just annoying. :bug:

                              I doubt it will become a Henry/Williams duel.

                              Scenarios-

                              1- Bledsoe torches the worst Pass D in the league, put s Buffalo up, then Henry runs them down in the second half. Ricky becomes a non factor as the fins play catch up

                              2- Fins replay the Jag's mistake, sell out to stop the run, henry has a poor day, Bledsoe torches the fins

                              3- Buffalo has a cold start, Ricky and the fins use ball controll, keep Bledsoe off the field, and when Buffalo does get the Ball, they throw to get back into it. Henry becomes a non- factor

                              4- Miami over plays the pass, (play nickle on a lot of downs) , blitzes a lot, opening the running game / big success on draw plays. Henry has a big day, Ricky is a non factor as Miami plays catch up
