Chandler#81 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 5 of last 6 and 6-2 v Tanny but who is counting THIS! I was gonna close down this less-than-perceptive thread, til you offered up this gem, Yolo. (though another mod may anyway..) Our Division having been dominated by NE for so long, no one outside it gives credence to any of the remaining 3 teams. Most outsiders say something to the effect that 'NE is gonna breeze into the playoffs in that perpetual crappy Division'. But a closer look will reveal that there's another very good team in the Division -and that's US! We've owned the Jets & fins for a few years now, despite musical chairs at QB & coaching staffs. Literally no one else sees this (including most posters here) -but ask the Dolphins or Jets about us. They KNOW they're our B word as well as NE's. Unfortunately, we can't get over the NE hump either, so we're lumped into the 'AFCE SUX' discussion. Here's the litmus test: when the schedule comes out, how many of you look at it and think 'we should sweep MIA & NYJ'? I do. And I'm right most of the time. This, from a team one more non-playoff season away from tying the all-time record for playoff futility. But we're better than NY & MIA.. Go Bills!
eball Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I know for a fact I said this last offseason, and I'll say it again. The Fish are always overrated going into the season, and they always underperform.
26TrapDraw Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 5 of last 6 and 6-2 v Tanny but who is counting You're gonna let a little thing like accuracy and fact get in the way of my point???
GunnerBill Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Dolphins lose Grimes, Oliver, and most likely Wake along with Lamar Miller....gain Kiko, Maxwell, and Mario....not much better to me They have gotten worse at corner, older at end and worse at running back but slightly better at linebacker. Spinning wheels.

NorthBuffaloKid Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 i agree wholeheartedly that as a Bills fan every team is a concern. I took the question to mean are the Fish more of a concern this year than last year or any other year ... And I don't think they are. I always say that if we only win 2 games in a season and they both are against the Fish, the season was a success.
BuffaloBill Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 The fish just seem to be desperate in their moves.
Malazan Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I'm very concerned about the Dolphins and that some of the Bills upcoming free agents will pad their stats against such a terrible team making their price go up.
BuffaloBillsForever Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 The fish just seem to be desperate in their moves. This is how I have felt about the Bills the last several years.
billsfan89 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 They lost their best Running Back and their defense just brought on a bunch of big names who are on the decline or injury prone. I think the Fins will be a formidable team but they won't be a threat to make the playoffs. They will probably be in the 7 to 9 wins range. Going the Redskins route of trying to win free agency doesn't work.
gr8billsfan Posted March 10, 2016 Author Posted March 10, 2016 Most people are focused on their poor offense. Could their Defense alone beat the bills offense? Personally, I don't think it would happen. Can it happen? Only if the Bills turnover the ball or have bad play-calls, which sounds all too familiar with our luck anyway.
YoloinOhio Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 They just signed CJ Anderson to an offer sheet, who had 3 TDs against us in 2014. Well, against the Schwartz D that is.
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 They just signed CJ Anderson to an offer sheet, who had 3 TDs against us in 2014. Well, against the Schwartz D that is. On 2.8 ypc. It was also the game they stopped Peyton's td streak. http://espn.go.com/nfl/recap?gameId=400554428 We're reaching hard to prop up the 2015 defense.
jletha Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Theyve gotten worse so far in free agency and have a rookie head coach. Why would we be worried about them? Them and the Jets both got worse IMO
BuffaloBillsForever Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 The way I look it is the Jets, Dolphins and Bills could be players for 4th in the division this year. It really is a toss up.I don't see any other team except for NE coming out of the divison.

Best Player Available Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 I'm concerned with whatever scrub RT lines up against the fishes new DE.
transient Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 Yep! The last couple years they put themselves in terrible positions as an organization. They have done it again. However, I am confident they will play us hard. Sounds like a recipe for a fractured penis.
