If someone has barely been on the field etc.

Watch out for the Bills defense as a sleeper this week

I can see Henne struggling and the Bills ferocious secondary capitalizing.

Spiller will also show why he was the best player in the draft

Ronnie Brown and the Wildcat are going to be busy today. And when they stack 8 in the box look for him to find Marshall deep.

Might as well get it all out of your system now.

I am having a flashback:

Chad Henne is going to pull a Ray Lucas and be crying on the turf of the Ralph by the 3rd quarter

 

[moderated]

Spillers coming out party.

 

[smapdi]

Spillers coming out party.

Holla!He is also starting kick returner. Watch out

 

[DolphinsFanAlways]

This is the start of a magical season for the Phins........With a healthy Brown and Williams, this offense is going to be a powerhouse this year.

The Spiller party will have to wait until next week..

 

[=Smackdown=]

Looks really windy.

Sparano lost a lot of weight

 

[Steve Tasker]

FWIW, Spiller owners....Spiller starts in the slot with Fred Jackson in the backfield....

 

[Steve Tasker]

great 3-and-out for the Bills.

Gonna be a looooooooooong season.

 

[=Smackdown=]

Buffalo offense looks lethal.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Buffalo offense looks lethal.

Lethal to the hopes and dreams of Bills fans everywhere, yes.

 

[Steve Tasker]

David Nelson makes his first NFL catch.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Great 2-yard dumpoff on 3rd and 12.

Bills offense

 

[Steve Tasker]

Real barn-burner here. Might go do some yardwork.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Don't get me wrong here, the Bills are awful.... but the Dolphins don't look THAT good.

 

[j3r3m3y]

How is Ronnie looking live? He looks good on the play by play.

 

[Steve Tasker]

How is Ronnie looking live? He looks good on the play by play.

Looks very quick, great burst. Converted a 3rd and 10 draw play for a first down and just scored a TD.

In contrast, Ricky Williams looks like he's running in quicksand when compared to Ronnie. He looks really quick.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Jackson and Lynch with nice back-to-back offtackle runs.

Spiller out of the game and the Bills offense starting to move the ball better, FWIW.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Marshall embarrasses both Whitner and McKelvin and drops the uncontested 50-yard pass.

 

[j3r3m3y]

I was hoping he had gotten that out of his system in pre-season.

I was hoping he had gotten that out of his system in pre-season.

To be fair, it was underthrown pretty bad. If it hit him in stride, he had an easy 60-yard TD. He had to wait, which allowed the 2 DBs to catch him and they would've (hopefully) tackled him around the Bills 10 yard line. The ball did hit him right in the hands though, and he just dropped it....the DBs were still a yard or 2 behind him.

He was having a nice day until that play. Has done a great job of getting yards after the catch to get key first downs.

 

[OC Zed]

Brutal.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Lindell puts a 63-yard FG attempt just a few yards short....that was good from at least 57.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

 

[OC Zed]

From the Bills perspective:

--Awful pass protection, particularly the 1st quarter.

--At least 3 times Spiller tripped up preventing big gains.

--Edwards thoroughly confused when Dolphins flood the secondary (this has always plagued him more than anything).

--Dolphins imposing their will offensively, and somehow only have 10 points.

I hate being a Bills fan.

 

[OC Zed]

"Danger Zone" blaring at halftime. I don't know what to make of this.

 

[OC Zed]

You know a new Bills season has started when Pozlusny is lost with in an injury.

I try to have hope, I really do.Every year for the last who knows how many years...7 years or so, probably...I've felt that they COULD make the playoffs. Not a given, but not completely out of the question.This is the first year that I don't have that feeling. I will be absolutely SHOCKED if this team makes the playoffs. It's just not going to happen.

 

[OC Zed]

Bell apparently thought the matador blocking scheme was called on that second down play.

 

[OC Zed]

Atrocious.

 

[smapdi]

Jesus H Christ does Trent Edwards blow

Cannot stand watching this ##### play QB any longer

 

[IvanKaramazov]

If you're a Bills fan, you should be acclimated to poor quarterback play by now.

It's tough to say what happened on the third down play... don't know if all of the receivers were blanketed. But he MUST make that throw to Evans on first down. And he didn't.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Bills defense looks fairly good, actually. Offense can't do anything.

 

[j3r3m3y]

I am really getting sick of seeing:

2-10-MIA 21 (10:40) C.Henne pass incomplete to

This game should be about 20-3 right now.

 

[OC Zed]

Pass interference?

 

[Steve Tasker]

Another drive start at the 50....2 dumpoffs to Fred Jackson and in completion down the sideline to Evans. Excellent drive.

Just wait for them to fold in the 4th quarter.

 

[OC Zed]

Those cheerleaders were beaten with the ugly stick.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Spiller owners>I have to think that this isn't a fluke game from him. I've been saying it all summer....the Bills are simply terrible on offense....offensive line is atrocious, can't move the ball to save their lives.

Spiller will have his moments and the occasional big game, but he'll be wildly inconsistent. He's a great talent on a terrible, terrible team.

He should compliment Lee Evans well then.

 

[MarshallRob]

Wow. Sapp drops what would have been a pick six for MIA.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

It's going to be a long season.
