Buffalos number one ranked defense needs a nickname. The nickname would draw attention to a defense with ZERO pro bowlers. What are your ideas for the name?

it doesn't need a nickname.  When will fans stop with the pro bowl nonsense. We have a playoff game on Saturday. While I agree we probably should have had a few , complaining over individual recognition in a team sport has always bugged me. Fans will be the first to criticize a player if they complain that they aren't getting enough individual credit.

They just go to work and defend every blade of grass.

Hmmmm, do you have a proposed pic for that?

"Super Bowl Champs" will do just fine.

All great defenses have had a nickname Purple People Eaters

Airforce None

Legion Of Boom

Steel Curtain

Doomsday  

Dome Patrol

Gang Green

The Sack Exchange

The Killer Bs 

Monsters of the Midway

Orange Crush

etc…

I like Cold Front

The No Name, No Pro Bowlers, BEST ***** DEFENSE IN THE NFL. 

Miami's defense had a name like "No Name" in the 70's.

Yes, and more strange is that  I remember fans complained when Rueben Brown made the Pro Bowl every year, saying that he wasn't that good.

Lets give them the chance to show some playoff dominance before we go through all the hassle. Personally i'm stingy with nicknames.

I like the idea of having a nickname.   These guys finished the year as the #1 D.  They earned it.   And a nickname can help create a sense of identity.  

 

Besides, football is a game.  Games are supposed to be fun and nicknames are fun.   

 

Of the suggestions so far, I like "Cold Front" and "The Blizzard" the best.

Nicknames are fun and cool if they come about organically. Campaigning and brainstorming nicknames is lame.

…and this is why nicknames should come from the players, and not fans who have too much time on their hands.

Agree 100%.

 

"The Buffalo Defense," is who they are until one of them is hoisting a Lombardi Trophy.
