but are only giving up 3 points to the dolphins. this makes no sense. our defense can literally stop NOBODY. no pass rush and the opposing QB has all day to pick our secondary apart.

why would this line be 3 points?

* bold statement of week 1... buffalo wins outright at home against miami.. WHY ?   CJ SPILLER 3tds, 180 all purpose yards... buffalo defensive backs lock up miami recievers... 20-17 buffalo wins

Miami is the most overrated team in the entire league.

um... no. you even watch the bills? (i live in buffalo). spiller will be splitting carries w/ jackson and lynch. they aren't gonna be giving him a full workload.

WE CAN'T GET A PASS RUSH. henne will have all day to throw the ball and when that happens DBs can't cover WRs forever.

Fred Jackson may not even play.  The Bills offense will be better than people think because Chan Gailey is a huge upgrade over Dick Jauron as head coach.  CJ Spiller is going to be a huge spark.  

Dan213 - maybe because you live in Buffalo, you're overly pessimistic about the Bills this year?  I actually think the offense will surprise some people, and to get 3 points at home vs. a division rival isn't that bad.

Why do you think that ? IMO opinion the Dolphins should be one of the better teams in the AFC with what should be an improved defense under Nolan.

I think the Cowboys will have a down year again despite the optomistic predictions.  Romo can be counted on to make a dumb play nearly every game, sack with fumble, fumble on hand-off, something along that line.  They looked pitiful in the preseason except I liked them in the first game.  Will win ten games, maybe.  And I am a Cowboy's fan (Saints, too).

i'm not even sure how to respond to this...

last season our defense was pitiful (i mean really, really bad) and that was with jarius byrd picking at least 1 ball off a game for the 8 or so games he played. he's probably not gonna be ready for week 1 and our defense has had basically no upgrades and has lost of best defensive end. we switched to a 3-4 despite not having the right people for it and the 4 preseason games have been the same as all of last year. no pass rush!
you can't wins games if you can't get pressure on NFL QBs.

believe me. nobody wants to bills to win this game more then i do. but i can't see us even keeping this close. you take 1 of the leagues worst run defenses (against ronnie brown and ricky williams) and combine that with a defense that gets no pass rush (against an up and coming chad henne and top WR brandon marshall) and you get a beat down.

we lost by 6 at home to the jets last year.

that 6 INT game where we beat the jets in OT was in the meadowlands.

Dude, get your head out of Lindy Ruff's ass and actually think for a second. I'm sick and tired of people relying on preseason football to bet in the regular season. You actually think Gailey was showing what he was going to do in the regular season!?!?!? It was vanilla defense. Go ahead and bet Miami cause when you do you are goin to cry. Bills win 30-17. And no im not a homer either. I just think Miami is very overrated and has issues of their own.

This pick looks very good. Miami -3 in the under 39. Run heavy offense vs a team who's not going to score much in Buffalo. Also for those who think Spiller is going to explode this game, I would have him as a huge bust in FF. Miami will take away the run and force the Bills to pass, which will get ugly.

Bills 30 Dead Fish 17...Marshall will start cryin again. People forget how well we defend the pass. Stopping the run has been an issue but i think it will be a lot better this season. Just watch.

Im a Buffalo fan..........Im surprised you don't know that the Bills always play Miami hard in Buffalo and they always play hard at home..........Bills had an awesome defense last year, almost the #1 in pass defense.........Maintaining those stats while having like the worst offense in the league was impressive........Edwards has worked on streteching the field all offseason.  Hired an offensive coach.  New plays..........Buffalo wins this game son, now throw out your tampons and man up.  Back your team properly
