4. Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills | Scouting report
Mike Mularkey is keeping quiet on his quarterback choice for this week. There is good reason. J.P. Losman is in the process of getting benched. Losman has had back-to-back 75-yard passing days. Mularkey is facing a schedule crisis. He has home games against the Dolphins and Jets in the next two weeks, and if the Bills lose both, they will be 1-5. If they split those two games, they lose the edge in moving up in the AFC East because three of their final four AFC East games will be on the road. So they really have to win both games. Going to Kelly Holcomb only makes sense. The Bills rank 31st on offense, averaging 219.8 yards per game. They are scoring only 12 points a game. Losman clearly wasn't ready to take over the offense, and as tough as that might be to admit, the Bills simply have to win some games. They have talent on defense, but the defense is starting to fade because of the losses of linebacker Takeo Spikes and defensive tackle Ron Edwards. The poor play of the offense is leaving the defense on the field too long. Opponents are averaging 172.3 yards a game rushing against them, numbers that are unreal. Suddenly, the Dolphins, who entered the season considered one of the three worst teams in football, have a chance to take advantage of a struggling team and improve to 3-1.

We were supposed to be one of the 3 worst teams in football? Man they were so wrong, just goes to show how much, or should I say how little "the experts" really know.
