It really is amazing how often the close calls go to the Chiefs. Now, the last few have been overturned but the immediate spot/ruling is in favor of them.

Help me understand that spot!! I try so hard to not be the “it’s fixed guy” but that spot was 1.5 yards off. How can that happen?!?

That’s an interesting comparison. I could totally see that.

Yeah, I’m having a hard time believing that they are “this” good. Their point differential is crazy. They’re dominating teams. Clearly they’re good but Daniel Jones is still the QB. Maybe I’m being arrogant and dismissive but if that’s the “team to beat” sign me up.

There are people on this here message board that wanted to let Cook walk because the Bills already had Ray Davis. 🤣🤣 Ray had a pretty decent last year but he was always limited. He’s Zack Moss. If you don’t have burst, you can’t play. I’m surprised, that people are surprised that he isn’t good.

He sucks. He has slow feet. I wonder how everyone didn’t see that coming? The much more surprising thing is Ty looking slow too. He’s obviously smart and a good blocker. He’s good in the passing game. He just looked a lot quicker last year. Maybe he’s dinged?

KC has an uphill battle for the bye regardless. They still have at least a couple of losses left. 5 losses isn’t getting the bye. I guess I’m just at a point where if I have to go to Houston or Pittsburgh or Indy or Denver or New England, I just don’t care. If you can’t win there, you arent a title contender. If you end up playing KC, obviously I hope it’s home, but even still all that matters is that you win. You’ve won there plenty of times. You just need to do it when it matters.

Lol, in what world is RB “even?” KC is rumored to try to add a RB at the deadline because they’re in bad shape. The Bills have the 2nd leading rusher in the NFL and a guy who is an all-pro if the season ended today. In fact, RB might be the biggest gap of all positions listed.

I “get it” but we’ve seen this before. All of those things are “nice” but they don’t matter. What matters is doing it in January. I’m not going to overreact one way or the other to a game on November 2nd. There’s way too much that’ll happen between now and when it matters. I won’t be excited/satisfied with an AFCE title and an appearance in the AFC Championship again.

I’m having a hard time getting excited for this game. In years past, especially last year, I thought about the matchup all week. That stadium was electric last year when Josh took off on 4th down. It just feels like this game doesn’t really matter. Obviously it matters in terms of winning the division and potentially in terms of seeding. The reality is, the regular season is just kind of “there” now. It would be great to have the 1 seed. It would be great to win the division and host playoff games. It would be great if KC had to come here in the playoffs. At the end of the day, all that matters is what happens in January and, God willing, February. Maybe I’ve gotten spoiled or jaded but this just doesn’t get me all hyped like it used to. At this point, a Super Bowl Championship is the only thing that matters.

Nate Geary was tweeting something similar. Basically, “I’m having a hard time getting all excited about this KC game. I’ve seen them win big regular season games.” It feels like this year, getting to where we’ve been won’t satisfy anybody. I was maybe a little early on the “AFC East titles and a playoff win or 2 isn’t enough.” Lol, I would have fired this regime after 13 seconds like George Steinbrenner. 🤣🤣 I’m not sure if that would have been good or bad. It seems like everyone is there now. The windows in this league aren’t forever. The Bills have had a WIDE open window and it is closing. It doesn’t mean that they can’t win moving forward but teams are catching up and their roster is largely what it will be moving forward. This is the core group that you’ll be rolling with for the next few years. I feel like they are further away today than they were 4 or 5 years ago. That’s not a good feeling.

I’m with you @Virgil. Last year, I was pleasantly surprised. Coming into this year, and after week 1, I was POSITIVE that they were getting the 1 seed. This year set up PERFECTLY for them. They have an easy schedule. Burrow is out for a while. Lamar has been out and has the Ravens in a massive hole. KC started slowly and really missed Rice. The Bills were basically playing with a head start. They haven’t been nearly as good as last year, despite an easier path. The WR hole is still massive and limits the potential to be great IMO. Yesterday, was nice to see. That’s the best game that they’ve played this year. When the Bills get the lead they’re tough. They can run the ball and teams can’t run against them. When the Bills get behind, it’s tough to imagine them closing the gap (yes I know the Baltimore game). If teams can run the ball and the Bills are forced into just the passing game, with the current roster, it’s tough. Those guys legit stink. The lead is so important for this group.

Fair question. It might. He’s always been better when he gets hit early and is “in the game.” It’s almost like a relief pitcher that didn’t throw enough pitches in the bullpen. He takes a batter or 2 to get to where he needs to be.

Agree but Hendrickson is more likely to be dealt

There’s another hilarious thread out there from when Cook asked for the money. The jaded ex-gfs on this board were losing it. 🤣🤣

Josh hasn’t been very good all year (by his standards). He’s not seeing the field and missing on some throws that are there (like the throw to Moore). His guys are rarely open on top of that. Josh needs to run early in games. He needs to get hit a couple of times and he’s a better player.they should run that QB power on the first drive every game.

They were noticeably faster. Inserting Hairston, Hoecht and Hancock added so much speed. We just need to find a few more guys whose last names start with “H” to inject.

Pats are much better than I expected. At the same time, they don’t scare me. If you can’t beat that team in a big game, you aren’t a Super Bowl contender.

Same situation as before. We aren’t “afraid” of anybody. When asked, “who would you rather play in a must win Bengals/Ravens or Steelers/Broncos/Chargers/Jags/Patriots/Colts, the answer is still that we want to avoid Burrow and Lamar.” When you have a 1 game, “must win” you ALWAYS select the teams that are less dangerous.

Fantastic performance!! Best performance of the year. There are lots of game balls that could be awarded. In the interest of not giving out 20 and not forgetting people, Cook.

Hey guys, I’m new here. The WRs aren’t very good huh?

TD saving tackle by Hancock. Turnover right after…

So terrible. RIP 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
