The Buffalo Bills made headlines for its release of Trent Edwards; it's not often that a professional football team releases a team captain and starting quarterback after two games and three weeks. That decision shows the level of dysfunction permeating Buffalo's organization, currently headlined by a GM (Buddy Nix) and head coach (Chan Gailey) that are moving parts and making decisions like mad scientists. Buffalo has a horrid defense that cannot stop the run or the pass at the moment, as they've given up 72 points in the past two games. Their solid trio of running backs are generally overpowered by weakness at quarterback, receiver and the offensive line. Make no mistake: the Bills are one of the NFL's most brutally bad teams. Their best hope is to be entertaining, because they won't be winning many games this year.
NFL Predictions For The Winless Teams: Buffalo Bills
Winnable Games: Week 5 vs. JAC, Week 10 vs. DET, Week 14 vs. CLE
Tough Stretch: They're in the midst of it, as they'll play their third division opponent when the Jets visit Ralph Wilson Stadium this week; they had Green Bay in their opening stretch as well. Weeks 11 through 13 won't be fun, either, as they'll take on Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and Minnesota in consecutive weeks.
Prediction: Buffalo will be lucky to eke out three or four wins, though they do have a shot to play competitive ball and make some big plays. Like Cleveland, they’re contenders to sit at the top of the draft order next spring.
