Why would anyone pick the Bills? The Ryan brothers are two of the most overrated coaches in NFL history, right along with Jeff Fisher. Rex Ryan is too emotional to engender any kind of consistent success, plus his 'rah rah' act wears thin quickly with professionals, and Rob Ryan hasn't had a good defense in forever*.

Dude's record shows a mediocre-to-terrible DC, plus regression almost everywhere he's gone (had 1 good year in Oakland, but then got worse each year after that, got better in Cleveland, made Dallas worse, made New Orleans worse).
Just like their dad, the Ryans are all bark and no bite, and their records illustrate that. Rex did well during the start of his tenure with the Jets, but once the league adjusted to his schemes, he couldn't adjust. The same thing is happened in Buffalo, albeit with an accelerated timetable. He actually made Buffalo's defense worse than it was since taking over (including spectacularly mishandling Mario Williams), and has compounded his idiocy by hiring his buffoon brother, the guy who got run out of town in New Orleans because he was beyond terrible.
And just in the last 48-72 hours, they fired their offensive coordinator, a guy who somehow coaxed Tyrod Taylor into becoming a serviceable QB. Because he was obviously the problem, not the Ryans.
The Bills are a trainwreck. Barring a miracle, they will be one all season long. No one should pick them for anything outside of "Coaches to be 1st at the buffet table."
