I'll bet your local sports book would love for you to make that bet!
You could seriously cash in if that happened!! The odds on that have to be crazy. Go for it!!:D

[MI-Lineman]

The chiefs got scalped again!!!:eek:

Detroit 48 KC 3!:D

The Bills Beat Oakland in a thriller. Buffalo scoreed 21 unanswered points and scored touchdowns on all five second half possesions to upset the big bad Raiders. I don't know Mike.... A Buffalo Detroit Super Bowl..????????

[MI-Lineman]

Yeahhhh, I still think way to soon? I'd like to see Detroit face a real good team first? Last year fro the first half of the season they had trouble with tireing out in the 3rd now they seem to have trouble gettin goin until the third? It's Detroit man, they could loose the next dam 14 games!:rolleyes:

The Bills face Tom Brady and the Patriots next Sunday. Reality Sucks! Brady is gonna pick our secondary apart. I swear that evil bastard enjoys torturing the Bills.

Hope for the hopelessThe Lions and Bills haven't reached the playoffs since 1999, but that could change

As unpredictable as the NFL has been over the years, some things have been very predictable.
Such as, the Buffalo Bills (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/buf/buffalo-bills) would not make the playoffs.
And the Detroit Lions (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/det/detroit-lions) would not make the playoffs.

Each would fall short, usually way short. It has happened every season since 1999. Buffalo and Detroit have gone 11 consecutive seasons without making the playoffs, tied for the longest postseason drought in the NFL. While time has moved on, the Bills and Lions hadn't.
But after Buffalo won decisively at Kansas City and Detroit won convincingly at Tampa Bay, the two teams already have emerged as candidates to be some of this season's biggest surprises.
It is, in large part, because of their quarterbacks. On Sunday, Buffalo's Ryan Fitzpatrick (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/8664/ryan-fitzpatrick) and Detroit's Matthew Stafford (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/12483/matthew-stafford) registered two of the four highest Total Quarterback Ratings in ESPN's new quarterback grading system. Fitzpatrick led the NFL with a 91.2, and Stafford finished fourth with an 87.4, with only Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/8439/aaron-rodgers) and New England's Tom Brady (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/2330/tom-brady) between them.
Now, even though it is only one week, it's not too early to think ahead. Buffalo plays its home opener against Oakland, which sets up the idea that the Bills could be 2-0 before hosting the New England Patriots (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/ne/new-england-patriots) in Week 3. Detroit hosts Kansas City and hopes to win its sixth straight game, including the four it won to close out last season.
It's intriguing to contemplate the possibilities for Buffalo and Detroit because, for now, there's hope for two franchises that have had little of it.

the Bills finally beat the Patriots after a eight year 15 game streak by the Pats. It looked pretty bad with a 21 to zero Pats lead in the first half, The bills never gave up and fought back to win 34 to 31:D The Bills are for real!


A Lions Bills Super Bowl gets more realistic each week:)

Congrats TG, on the Bills wins they are sticking in there. And MI, OMG what's going on with the Lions? they are looking fiesty with three in a row(I love it when the Vikings get beat), My Pack will have some work cut out for them with the Detroit gang it looks like.
