Driving around this afternoon and listening to some national sports talk on various channels. A couple hosts think Drake Maye has surpassed Allen already. I mean cmon please go off against KC this weekend.

Good. That's what the home uni should be every week. I see the Bills are underdogs. I'm going to have to put a few bucks on them as home dogs, something rare in recent years in the Allen/McD era.

That reminds me of the Peyton Manning clip that makes the rounds on social media once in a while. He tells the story of a game they just needed a half yard or something to get a first down, then they can kneel out the clock and get the Win. But one of the players on the line moved early. So it turned into 3rd and 6. So in the huddle Peyton told the player who committed the infraction to leave... to get off the field. The player thought he was joking. Peyton said no, get the hell off the field. He was pissed. They ended up not getting the first down, had to punt, but the D closed out the game anyway.

It just feels like in his coaching tenure here, that McDermott coached teams have never cleaned up the penalty issues. and it's not just judgmental offensive holdings...it's a lot of presnap fundamental stuff like defensive Offside, Oline moving early, illegal procedure, etc,,, The DB's are always grabby grabby,,, and they keep opponents on the field on 3rd downs.

It’s relative to them. They went 11-0 in one score games and scraped by in a few. The team, especially the offense and the way Mahomes is playing is definitely better right now than last year club. But yea, in the end the W’s are all that matter.

Playing KC in this era is like playing the Patriots back in the Brady era (great Coach/QB/TE combo, great D coordinator). The difference is they are not in the AFC East and the Bills happen to be really good too. It's frustrating. I mean they had kind of a down year last season and still got the #1 seed and made the Super Bowl.

I think the Bills D is going to make some plays, but KC will still score in the low-mid 20's. If the Bills D holds KC in the teens i will be pleasantly surprised. Buffalo's offense is more concerning to me. The Chiefs will not allow Cook to go crazy. They have a very solid D across the board. Allen has to break out of whatever slumber or lack of confidence that is plaguing him. He will have some open receivers TE's and RBs. He needs to release the ball quicker or take off and run sooner. His eyes have become sloooooow when he's going through his progressions.

Some good analysis there. He's definitely is spooked by the INTs. He isn't playing with that swag and has no confidence throwing the ball. He has to snap out of it. INT's will happen but if you score enough they can be overcome. Look at Mahomes last night, 2 first half picks and he didn't get down on himself, he got angry and kept throwing.

KC has better receivers of course, no one can argue otherwise. What you see with Mahomes though, is how great he is when things break down. He knows where everyone is at all times.. his line caves in but he buys time with twitchy movements and he gets the ball out to guys that break open. He anticipates it. When he does throw a pick or two (like last night), he doesn't go to the sidelines and sulk. He's yelling at himself and whoever can hear him. He gets mad and that pumps himself up to make some plays on the next drive.

Must be frustrating if you are a fan of Broncos or Chargers

The KC defenders are gonna leave the field not injured, and fresher than when they started. These guys don’t ever get injured

Forget the offense. i’ve watched the KC D for 3-4 games and saw maybe one person get up slow. No limping, no nothing. these guys are NOT made of glass

3rd and 5 and they take him off the field to put Lane in? thats just dumb coaching

Hunt actually did a great job of busting through two guys to give Mahomes an easy look.

Dang it

looked like a bad spot actually

I mean that’s just a great play by Mahomes, he dances around and sees everything and Kelce is out there

Stupid play by #20

If I was a KC supporter i’d wonder why they abandon the running game. They seem to have success with it

Wow they didn’t even get a FG chance. that must kill Reid and Mahomes

Dude may have been a tad early.

Nice! And just when i was about to say Mariota is incapable of throwing downfield to the WRs. hes pretty good at the screens and tight end throws.

He’s good as their 3rd down pass catcher RB. I think they are using him more tonight since he has the juice

I mean you get two INTs on Mahomes and they lead 7-0. That’s a fail
