Time To Pay The Bills

[mfbmike]

Week 1 Preview
Sunday, September 15, 8:30 PM @ Landshark Stadium

(0-0) @ (0-0)



For the second consecutive year, the Bills are matched up with their AFC East rival Dolphins to kick off the regular season.

And as they did a season ago, the Bills will look to get this season started off on the right foot.

The Dolphins have missed the playoffs for what is now 4 straight years while the Bills are hoping to do more than just make it to the postseason.

While these two bitter rivals may not always be headed in the same direction, you can always expect it to be a tough, hard-fought matchup.

It's going to a hot, muggy night in South Florida.

Dolphins Key Additions: WR Sean Wheeler (76), HB Jarvis Rankins (75)

Holy shit. Defense is stuffed!
You should be holding teams to 20 points or less

;)

Better late than never. Just to give you a quick run down. I'm now in my 5th season. Have made the playoffs for 4 years straight. Haven't won a postseason game in 3 seasons despite winning the AFC east in the last 2.

Stats/Pro Bowlers and other information is compiled on the 1st page.

Welcome aboard.

This might just be your year.

It would definitely be nice.

I played the Dolphins game lastnight. My fiancee and I are kinda fighting so we prob won't go out tonight meaning I will more than likely be updating. :laughing:

Week 2 Preview
Sunday, September 22, 1:00 PM @ Giants Stadium

(1-0) @ (0-1)



After missing out on the playoffs a season ago. the Jets had a solid draft picking up some young talent to bolster their defense.

The Jets defense, particular their pass rush, has always given the Bills headaches so it will be interesting to see if Trent Edwards and Lee Evans can put up they did in the Bills week 1 37-12 beatdown of the Dolphins.

Edwards completed 78% of his passes on his way to just under 300 yards and 4 touchdown passes, 3 of which were to Lee Evans who caught 10 passes for 181 yards.

It appears that the competition Edwards is receiving from newest-Bill QB Ted Ford is lifting his game. And Evans is reaping the benefits.

If the Jets and their new look defense can't find a way to slow down this very potent Bills offense, things could get out of hand quickly.

On that same token, the Bills defense will have to find a way to contain Mark Sanchez and his very talented receivers (4 80+). With two Jets offensive lineman out, it will be key for last year's sack leader Aaron Maybin and company to get into the backfield and disrupt the passing game.

Jets Key Additions: LE Marques Bartell R* (84), SS Terrence Clayton R* (82)
