Good history?????

[L.A. Playa]

In 1990 (our first Super Bowl Year) the Bills got beat in week 2, 30-7 at Miami. Got crushed to start 1-1. That year we finished 13-3. Could have been 14-2 if we played starters in last game. Also, we played the nfc east that year. Also, a Dolphin fan said that the last 4 afc champions have lost in the regular season. Could this loss early in the season be a good thing ?????
