The Bible does not say that, it says "In the BEGINNING." The Dinosaurs were long gone by the time Adam walked the earth. In fact Adam was not the first man, only the first of us.

The Bible gives eleborate genealogies which date the beginning to about 6,000 years ago.

The Bible does give a little glimpse into the gap between Gen 1:1 and Gen 1:2, but you have to look to the prophets to find it, not in Genesis.

Your Bible knowledge is lacking. I wish people who know nothing about the Bible would not criticize the positions of others as "unbiblical".

For people who refuse to understand the historocity of the Genesis literal creation account, they need to deal with this: The doctrines of Substitutionary Atonement, original sin, and the inerrancy of Scripture require it. All or nothing - unless you discount the very words of the Master Himself when referencing "the beginning" - You are arguing with the Messiah Himself. He said Adam was the first man. Argue with Him.
