Marino was good. No question.

Kelly is as bad as he is good at times.  The more he's down the more dumb
plays he tries.

Yes!  Some other Bills follower final can see it!  Walt Corey is a TOTAL
MORON!  He MUST BE FIRED if the Bills ever expect to win the Super Bowl.
Personally, I don't think they will win it with the current coaching
staff, and yes that includes Levy.  I like Levy, but think about it.  The 
talent on the team has steadily degraded over the past 4-5 years.  Without
the No-Huddle the Bills wouldn't have won as many games over the past two 
years as they have.  They had a more "balanced" team the year they lost to the
Bengals in the AFC Championship.

They should finish with 10 to 12 wins, but I suspect they'll get knocked
out of the playoffs early enough.
