The laughing stocks of the NFL, the past decade have been the Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions. Both teams were virtual locks for last place in their division and easy games on the NFL schedule. Now things have changed as both teams are an undefeated 3-0 with quality wins on the schedule.
The Bills rolled the Chiefs Week 1, and had 2 comeback wins Week 2 and 3 to beat the Raiders (2-1) and the arch nemesis Patriots (2-1). Buffalo hadn't beat New England and Brady in the last 15 meetings dating back to a time when Facebook was "The Facebook" and in the works. The Bills have Chan Gailey as the new head coach and QB Ryan Fitzpatrick might be Mark Zuckerburg with his Harvard education playing at a high level in the NFL. Stevie Johnson is a stud WR and not a bda rapper while Fred Jackson is the unsung hero thats has been all across the world trying to play football.
After 3 weeks I'd say the Bills are for real and I'll take a glass of that kool-aid. To beat Tom Brady after trailing 21-0 and intercept him four times is an accomplishment I don't care if you are the Bills or not.
In the NFC the Lions are 3-0. Yes it may be more impressive then the Bills, let's not forget in 2008 the Lions went 0-16, yes they won 0 games. Now with Stafford, Best, HC Jim Schwarz, Pettigrew, Suh and Fairley added on since, the Lions are on the prowl. They trailed 20-0 to the Vikings and won 26-23 in OT yesterday and beat up on KC and Tampa Bay (10-6 last season). Both the Lions and Bills have beaten an 0-3 Chiefs team that looks terrible and last year's 10-6 playoff appearance may have been a fluke as the Ravens routed them anyway.
The Bills and Lions in the Super Bowl? Hold on just minute I'm not drinking that kool aid just yet
