While the Bills have one win better than all of last season, the Detroit Lions have just matched last years record as well, with their Sunday win over the Bears.
They too are an upstart team, looking for something to prove this Sunday. They have failed to win on the road in the past 11 trips, and will be looking for something to prove to the league. One of the keys to being noticed as a real contender is the ability to win on the road, which the Bills have just done, winning their last 2 road games.
This will be a dangerous matchup this weekend as the Lions look to put the demons of the road behind them. THe Bills can't take them too lightly and need to stay focused, instead of looking ahead to nexts weeks more important matchup with the Patriots.
Thoughts.....
