Buffalo Bills



Buffalo Bills
2013 Season:  6-10
The Bills were in a lot of close games last season.  E.J Manuel started 10 games looked decent throughout. Injuring his knee in the game against the Browns caused him to miss 5 weeks   He took a beating being sacked 28 times  The defense was the 10th best defense racking up 57 sacks which ranked 2nd in the league.  Kiko Alonso 3rd in the league with 159 tackles, Mario 4th in the league in sacks and Kyle Williams put this team on their back and tried to carry them through a competitive AFC east division.  

Key Additions:  Mike Williams, Brandon Spikes, Sammy Watkins
Key Losses:  Stevie Johnson, Kiko Alonso (ACL)
Fantasy Players to watch for:  Sammy Watkins, C.J Spiller, Fred Jackson, Bills Defense


2014 Season:  Andre Reed one of my favorite wide receivers to watch got inducted into NFL Hall of Fame.  Kiko Alonso tore his ACL during a workout put an end to his season.  E.J Manuel back healthy and has received a talented rookie wideout in Sammy Watkins.  If these 2 can stay healthy this team has potential to make some noise in the league.  Left tackle Cordy Glenn and Right Tackle Erik Pears entering his 9th season have a huge task to keep EJ upright.  Last season the Bills were 2nd in the league in rushing with 144 yards per game.  This was without C.J Spiller for majority of the season.  Fred Jackson ran in 9 touchdowns last season 6th in the league.  Offensively they look pretty tough.
The addition of Brandon Spikes from New England will help the void of Kiko.  Though they are going to miss his presence on the field.  Mario and Kyle Williams will put pressure on QB's forcing mistakes.  With the combination of a good defense and a pretty good offense, I think this team will be pretty good.  With a home friendly schedule this will be a playoff team at 9-7
