I think they would have played differently defensively if they had to go 99. For instance, on the Lamar TD pass to bring it within 2, the Bills only rushed 3. If they only had a 5 point lead instead of an 8 point lead, I think they play that completely differently

I want to be wrong but I just don't see this happening. Unfortunately people have been saying this about the Chiefs all season long and yet here they are. I listened to Bulldog on WGR say since at least the middle of the season that the Chiefs would lose their first playoff game. Yet, they win 15 games, they get a bye and win their first playoff game. They have gotten lucky all season. And people say every week that it's gonna run out. Again, here they are. I'll believe it when I see it

This is an assumption. My post is supposed to prove that the way those 3 games finished are no different than all their other games through out the season. Rashee Rice made no difference and they have won not having him since week 4. He doesn't matter. If they lost 6 games this year. Yes, you can make that argument. Winning 15 games and making the conference championship game is not a way to make that argument

And yet, it took a foot size too big shoe from Isaiah Likely, a bad PI call against the Bengals and a late no PI call against the Falcons their first 3 games to win those games. They didn't do anything anymore spectacular than they have done all season

The sad part is this is something I can definitely see happening

It wouldn't matter to me because their offense wasn't all that much better when he played the first 4 games. They still struggled to win games Don't you think Hollywood Brown is good enough to be their WR 1?

They have beaten good teams all season. Why would the fact this game has "playoff" in front of it matter as far as a guy that hasn't played since week 4 would have any impact? They were finding ways to win in the 4 games Rice played lol. They still never scored 30 points in the 4 games he played

I don't see why he should be counted when he hasn't played since week 4 and it's made no difference in the outcome of their season. They still won 15 games and made the AFC Championship game. I wouldn't even bring Rice up at this point

I don't think them missing Rashee Rice means anything. They have been missing him all season and it hasn't changed anything. The Chiefs are fully healthy for this game. They shouldn't be missing anyone

So, Rapp out and Benford possibly out so we have to rely on Bishop and who? JaMarcus Ingram or Kaiir Elam this week? It was fun while it lasted

So, I just tried this and the very first song on random was "Shattered Dreams" by Johnny Hates Jazz. I shut if off and will no longer be listening to anymore playlists

For me it was 1993 that I started following them. I can still tell people the scores to some of those games without even looking it up because I was so embedded in them by then. I've been hooked ever since that season opener against the Patriots that season

The partying and the Bills unwillingness to change to what the Giants were doing also had a factor in it

I was 7. That Super Bowl was the first Super Bowl I ever remember watching in full. I have vague memories from the year before. But I'm 38 now. A 31 year gap is big enough. Let's do this

Can we stop with these threads please? Let's talk about the game this week first before even thinking about this.

Exactly, which is why I say leaving one person on his is a mistake. People don't understand that

I still think not doubling him is a mistake that you are seriously underestimating

The dude had like 7 catches for over 100 yards and a TD last week against the Texans. He is still Mahomes go to guy

It's just the offense. There is no main guy

I feel like people severely underestimated this team. And it sounds like a lot of the fans here believe the media talk that they were saying before the season that we weren't very good. We scored 30+ points in 13 games and 5 of them we scored over 40. We have won 15 games counting the playoffs and somehow people are content because "we made it farther than the media talking head expected?" This team is good. Very good. And we have the ability to win it all. We just have to get to the dance. I feel like the way some fans here are talking that we overachieved. We have not

I do agree that we were very conservative and it almost killed us but after rewatching on the NFL network just a little bit ago, the playcalling wasn't as bad as I thought, though it still could have been better. It was pretty much like a "kill them with a thousand papercuts" game plan. That offensive drive after Bernard knocked the ball loose from Andrews was very methodical. It died inside the 5 because it got way too conservative. But until the 5 yard line, it was actually executed quite well. We got yards in very small chunks. But it worked

You're not just saying we won't win, you're saying you have been watching closely for years and the Bills aren't there yet which comes off the wrong way. That's the problem. The way you say it make it seem like you can see something no one else does which would make you an expert.

Since we are playing the Chiefs, McDermott should play this scene from Little Giants for the team this week. ONE TIME

Saying "I don't think this team ready" is an opinion Saying "I've been watching for years and the window hasn't opened yet" Sounds definitive and like your better than other people at seeing it

You are acting like an expert. And now you are just being ignorant to it. If I said to you exactly what you said "I've been watching this team closely for years and the window hasn't opened yet" as if it's some definite thing. You saying you have been watching for years to other people that have also been watching for years and this is the way it is, is acting like an expert. There are opinions and then there's saying "I've been watching very closely" like you're better at it than other people. It's ignorant
