Re: Can the Bills be 2006's Cinderella team?

Can the Buffalo Bills be the team that, in 2006, shocks everyone in the NFL and makes a playoff run? As laughable as that concept sounds to me, personally, the author of this article seems to think that it could happen, but only if all the pieces fit together exactly right.

"Every year a few teams come out of nowhere and go from cellar dwellers to playoff bound. Conceivably, the Bills could be that team in 2006, but there are a ton of ifs involved," he writes. "IF a quarterback can step up during camp, take over the starting role and play well… IF McGahee develops a determined attitude that will carry him for 16 games.. IF Price, Davis or Reed can provide a suitable partner for Evans… IF the offensive line is drastically better than last year, especially the interior.. IF McCargo and Tripplett can rush the passer and not get dominated against the run.. IF Takeo Spikes can come close to what he was before the Achilles heel injury… IF Clements plays hard knowing he’s gone after the season’s over… IF Whitner can step in as a rookie and make people forget about Milloy. Lastly and most importantly, IF Jauron’s staff can have this team much better equipped to play and handle game decisions a lot more advance than Mularkey and his staff did... IF these things happen, then you could be looking at this year’s Cinderella team. If not, then it looks like the clock will be stuck at midnight for yet another season, a season that could be long. Very long."

Re: Can the Bills be 2006's Cinderella team?

They have if not the worst O-line in football then certainly in the top 3. That tears down your offense right there and when your offense is giving 3 and outs every possession your D becomes tired and demoralized. They go nowhere except to a 5-11 season at best.
