This Sunday the Buffalo Bills take on their NFC East division rival Miami Dolphins to open the 2010 season.
Trent Edwards has performed well in the preseason and will be under center in the game and his teammates have faith in him to lead this team to their first postseason since 1999.
The addition of game breaking running back C.J. Spiller from Clemson will give the Bills something they have not had in a very long time, a true game breaker.
Spiller scored 51 touchdowns in his colligate career and scored in every way possible as he had touchdowns rushing, receiving, passing, and on kickoff and punt returns.
Lee Evans and Steve Johnson are the starting receivers and if the offensive line can give Edwards some protection, he will get them the ball.
The Dolphins have a strong pass rush, and signed a star linebacker in Karlos Dansby during the off-season so they will have their hands full on Sunday.
Since Chad Henne took over as the starting quarterback for the Miami Dolphins last season, the Dolphins looked like a different team. Henne has the size, arm and confidence to be a quality NFL quarterback.
The addition of receiver Brandon Marshall will also give the Dolphins a big boost and enable him to stretch the field opening up running lanes for a now healthy Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams.
If Henne can move from being a mistake-free game manager and with the addition of Marshall become someone who can win a game with his arm, the Dolphins might be on the brink of something good.
It also helps the Dolphins that they are playing in Buffalo in September and not in the middle of winter.
It should be a good game, but I do not see either of these teams contending for the division title this season against the Jets or the Pats.
