90sBills

Yeah I remember that rule. Such a stupid idea that was.

Didn’t they set the loudest stadium record during a night game?

That demon needs to get in shape!

Several years? I don’t think too many fans have even heard of him much less his issues until he joined KC last year.

Luck and refs.

Yeah that’s for sure. But he’s selective with those blitzes. They’re usually on critical 3rd/4th down situations. The majority of the time he relies on Chris Jones and gang to disrupt the offensive timing.

So you think Allen is bad against the blitz? Spags sends blitzes when they can’t get enough pressure from the front four. If they can generate adequate pressure I’m sure he’d rather have the extra guy go back in coverage. As would any good D coordinator. What Spags is good at is mixing up where pressure comes from. It looks like a blitz but when you watch it again a DLinemen drops back in coverage while a db has rushed. If Sqags has to send extra guys for pressure KC will lose for sure.

It’s the same going the other way. And Bills O-Line is better than KC’s.

It is if you’re the coach of the team. Which is what Reid was doing, rightly so. If the line had been KC -4 McD would have a great talk point for the Bills. For me it’s a fair line. But from a gambling perspective I wish it was Bills +3 or +4. That way the ML would be a little extra when I bet.

It has jumped to 2 because of public money since it has opened. Not sure how that changed my initial point. Majority of the media has criticized them all year and that has provided Reid with a disrespected platform that he can use to motivate his team. Which, as a good coach, he should be doing. I’m not sure what media you saw but I didn’t see anyone mainstream saying ‘KC would win easily’ last week. It would discourage the casual fans from watching the actual games. So they always go with hot takes and say that whatever teams would have a shot. Couple that general sentiment with the feeling that almost everyone is sick of KC’s success and you’re gonna get more love for their opponents. That narrative trend will continue this week imo.

Yeah it’s at KC. The number 1 seed in the conference. And the line is only 1.5. That’s the disrespect. As for the media pumping KC…not sure how much media you consume. For me it’s a lot. Even going into last weekend’s divisional game many talking heads were saying the Texans would upset KC. That KC’s line was vulnerable to Houston’s vaunted pass rush etc. And since that game it’s been Houston could’ve won if not for bad calls. I don’t think that narrative would suddenly switch to KC is great and Bills have no chance in the next few days.

According to Vegas oddsmakers KC would be underdogs at a neutral site. So Reid isn’t wrong for saying that. With how the media has treated KC this whole season I wouldn’t be surprised if the narrative would lean towards the Bills this week.

Along with a bigger group saying this is the year all the way up to the superbowl. So…just like every year as fans of any teams. lol

Omenihu and Watson improve their pass defense for sure. It’s the run defense we’re talking about. KC has always been vulnerable to a strong inside run. Especially when Chris Jones lines up outside to rush.

I was the same way going into this season. As the season progressed I’ve started to change my stance. Allen is playing the best he has ever play from a management leadership standpoint. I now think they can do it this year. It’s ok to Billieve!

Kind of like around here after a loss.

My bad. I worded that ambiguously. I meant generic ‘you’. Multiple posts in this thread. PS: Yes. Yes I am.

And alot of fans on here are clowning KC and predicting an easy win. So fans will be fans. Can’t wait to watch this game. Great AFC finale for this season.

Yet you have multiple posts saying Bills will win easy. This line is fair. Pretty much a pick game. It’ll be a fun matchup for fans to watch.

It’s really simple. People hate seeing KC win. It has gotten to the point that any calls they get, justified or not, would be viewed as some grand conspiracy.

The thread title could be ‘How to quantify one’s opinion’. Props to you for putting in the work.

I do. KC’s tackle issues are still there. Houston’s edge guys turned it on the last couple of weeks. If they can show up like they did last week it’s going to make KC’s offense struggle. I’m definitely betting on Houston with the points for sure. Just hoping that more money comes in on KC to drive that line up. I already have a teaser bet with Houston+Bills locked in. Really seems like easy money.

Take that 8.5 points Houston is getting. That’s such a high spread. Houston has a chance for the outright upset.

Let’s use a golf analogy. When you face off against somebody in golf you don’t directly play them. You’re playing against the golf course. How difficult the course’s defenses are. It’s your ability to navigate through those defenses better than your opponent that will get you a win. When you beat your buddies and they come up with ‘Well you didn’t beat me the course did’. You’d laugh in their faces. QB v QB is similar to this and that’s why it’s a relevant stat.

You’re upset that the NFL Network, whose job is to showcase NFL games, is showing Bills recent divisional playoff games ahead of another Bills divisional playoff game? You must be living great if this upsets you.
