    I told everyone that the Chiefs won’t make the playoffs this year. 
     

    Made a whole post about it 2 months ago and people were laughing. I gave you the reasons why. 
     

    They definitely aren’t coming back to make the playoffs. Yeah we are only going into week 3 but again like I said before the Chiefs have too many things going against them historically. 
     

    They are done this year. They will have to try again next year. Watch and see. I’ll be pulling up my post when they are completely eliminated from the playoffs to say I told you so.
     

    You can refresh your memories on everything I showed they had going against them historically. History repeats itself a lot. KC had too many things to overcome. 


    I remember your post. I hope you trusted your own instinct and bet on them missing the playoffs. It was a + return on investment.

    KC is also in real danger of going 0-2. The Eagles at Chiefs is the national game on Sunday at 4:25. Even though its in Arrowhead this will still be a very tough game for the Chiefs. Throw in the fact that the division looks stronger and the days of them dominating the AFCW are probably over. That doesn't mean they can't win the division but for the 1st time in a long time they will be challenged for it.


    I think they will be 0-2 after this week. Their best case scenario, imo, would be 3-3 without Rice and Worthy. When those guys are back I can see them go on a run to win the division and be a factor in the playoffs.

    The more games you have to play, the lower the likelihood you make the AFCCG. He didn’t say it was impossible. He just said reduced likelihood. And he is right.

     

    But either way, he did NOT say what you claimed.

    Nor did he deserve to get bullied for giving an opinion.


    That qualifies as bullying? Damn. I hope the OP isn’t as sensitive.

    The thread poster never said what you claim.

     

    All they said is that if the Chargers can somehow win that division, it will make a KC matchup vs Buffalo in the playoffs "less likely".

    Nothing about KC being done in week 1. 

     

    It's posts like yours that make people not want to bring up an opinion or add an interesting thought to the board.

     

     


    If KC is in the playoffs and can win on the road…how are they less likely to not meet Buffalo in the AFCGG? Are you saying our Bills would lose before that potential matchup? I don’t think so.

     

    My point was it’s week 1. Nothing can be taken too seriously after the 1st week. We can lose Sunday to the Ravens and it’ll be fine. If KC heads into OP with a losing record in week 9 then what OP is suggesting here would have more validity. It’s jumping the gun a bit here.

    How did we learn that when he went out on the first series?

    So the play is designed for them to run into each other? Maybe it’s just me, but I think someone made a mistake. 


    It looked more like Kelce didn’t take his route deep enough. The defensive guy pushing him didn’t help either. I don’t think that was Worthy’s fault. Although he’s guilty of not eating enough cheeseburgers in the offseason.

    Those guys aren't gonna fix the defense which was the bigger problem tonight. Spags was blitzing like crazy because 4 man pressures weren't getting any kind of push. The back 7 was losing 1v1 matchups at every level of the field. LA's WR corps on the whole is below average and Herbert still managed over 300 yards and 3 TDs - a stat line he hasn't pulled off since 2023. A series of poor draft picks and some of their cornerstone defensive players aging out has left them seriously undermanned on that side of the ball.


    I agree to some extent. Letting Justin Reid go was a big negative for their secondary and it showed tonight. But Spags’ defense usually gets better as the season progress so we’ll see if that’s true this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if they lose next week to Philly.

    Defense is a big red flag for me after that game….they would not have won a shootout against Baltimore or Buffalo or cincy tonight with worthy and rice back 100% healthy and unsuspended.  That’s frankly probably a blowout against a top tier opponent even with those guys.  Really we don’t even know what rice will look like when he’s back…sometimes it takes guys a year or so just to trust their knee again 

     

    Chris jones regressing from otherworldly to really good is gonna expose a lot of guys on that defense it’s seeming like. He’s been absolutely carrying that dline and masking some secondary issues 


    Yeah for sure. If that defense doesn’t get better as the season goes on they’re not going deep in the playoffs this year.

    Their offense wasn't dynamic. No running game and short quick passes. Tough way to run an offense. 15 is that good though. He can pretty much beat you by himself. 


    Hard to be dynamic with their wr1 suspended and wr2 knocked out on the 3rd play of the game. They’ll be a different team when those guys are back.

    It's over!

     

    KC dynasty is done. It's Baltimore and Burrow to get past now. 


    The last time they lost a season opener they won the Super Bowl. Let’s slow down here.

    Agree completely. I could get on board with the list entirely if it even had Lamar instead of Herbert but the fact it omits Patrick and Lamar is it for me. Has to be one or the other instead. Hurts you can make a case for given his play in the playoffs for Philly if you chose, none for Justin imo. 


    And the reasoning for that omission was very telling. Maybe he’s still sore about the two recent Super Bowls Niners lost.

    Is this just for active players or can retired players be included. For me its Brady. Seven Super Bowl championships. He comes through in the clutch when the pressure is on in the biggest moments. Active players its Mahomes for the same reasons I would choose Brady.


    It’s for active players. Brady was asked a similar question in a different way. He had a very thoughtful answer.

    He was dodging, and if you remember him playing you'll know he was good at that.

     

    By the way, I'm one of the people who think Montana is the true GOAT.  


    Wasn’t his best moment here. Didn’t have any solid thought in his response.

     

    Brady was asked similarly this week and you could tell his response had a lot of thought behind it. His answer was spot on.

    I get it. It does get frustrating at times to be a Buffalo Bills fan.

     

    Although it's not like this head coach stands still and makes no changes to improve the team.  The ST coordinator was recently changed, and for the first time, this new coach has good experience in ST. The head strength and conditioning coach was recently changed due to all the injuries. That 13-second DC was changed. The Buffalo OC has been changed several times since 2017, and the last time was during the season after six losses. 

     

    Buffalo did attempt to hire Steve Spagnuolo as their defensive coordinator, but instead, sadly, he chose the Chiefs. The Bills should be fine with Bobby Babich, as he was a rookie DC in 2024 and should improve under McD. Buffalo did lead the NFL in turnover differential in 2024. Also, let's not forget that McD called the defensive plays for the 2023 season, and considering all the injuries that season, I'd say he did a GD good job. #4 in points allowed and #9 in yards allowed. 

     

    In my view, this current Buffalo Bills HC & GM strives for excellence and wants to win that final season game as much, if not more than, any fan.


    Agree with all your points. I’m not one of those fire McD and it’ll be great type of fan. But his leash has to be shortened with every season that goes by without a championship. 
     

    Cheers!
    Go Bills!

    There were real reasons as to why the Buffalo Bills lost those close playoff games to their #1 enemy. I look at them more as reasons rather than excuses.  

     


    When a team has lost four times to the same team at the most critical point of those seasons, ‘reasons’ ring hollow at some point. It sure has for me. It hasn’t for you, apparently.

    I'm not saying the games are coin flips. I'm just pushing back on the notion that we can't talk about many variables in play without being accused of making excuses. The coin analogy was meant to illustrate probability, not to claim every game comes down only to luck. Obviously, many factors contribute to probability. 

     

    That said, I do worry that losing four times to KC will get into the head of this Bills team. That might have happened to the Kelly-era Bills. I'm convinced that if they had beaten the Giants, they would have won at least one more Super Bowl, maybe more than one more. Kelly's nerves were jangled against the Redskins, and Thurman quit against the Cowboys. Those were two warriors, too. 


    I guess my issue when people bring up coin tosses is the probabilities between football teams are not the same as the probabilities of coin tosses. With coin tosses you know absolutely without a doubt that tails will come up despite how many heads has happened. With a team game like football there are so many variables that the outcomes will not necessarily be even between two teams. 
     

    I do believe the Bills will get over KC and it could happen this season. Completely agree on your Super Bowl comments. Man it still hurts thinking about those. Damn.

    Flip a coin ten times, with heads your "team." It comes up tails four times in a row, and fans of the tail team are strutting around talking trash. You can point out how easily it could have gone the other way, but the tail fans will just call you a whiner making excuses. They'll boast that tails are dominant, they own the heads, their team (and, by extension, they themselves) are winners, heads and their fans losers. 

     

    Put ego aside and think objectively. The Bills could just as easily won the past four matchups as lose them, and it's likely true going forward. There's no magical mystery powder when teams are this even. There's only probability. (Except for the cheating refs. 🤨)


    NFL football games are not coin flips. There’s something to be said about losing to the same team 4 times at the most crucial moments of those seasons. Does this mean the Bills can’t ever beat KC in the playoffs? Of course not. What it does mean is KC should be the #1 priority and it’s not an easy task despite the close outcomes.
