The Bills qualify as a potential surprise team based on factors John Clayton outlines here.
The case he makes is compelling enough for me to acknowledge that my No. 25 ranking for Buffalo is probably selling the Bills short. Even though I ranked the Jets and Dolphins among the bottom 13 teams in the league, both could improve quite a bit this season, in which case the Bills' schedule becomes a little tougher.
In the end, I had enough questions about the quarterback situation to hold back. Trent Edwards finished his rookie season with seven touchdowns, eight interceptions and 12 sacks in 10 games (nine starts). His road becomes tougher as opponents make adjustments based on what they saw from him in 2007.
