Do you really think we are losing to the Colts? That's what my last reply was talking about.

Yes, I absolutely think the Bills will lose to the Colts.I don't think they will score over 20 points though, it's just that I have no trust in the offense at this point.

Couple of thoughts here.

 

KC has outscored the other team 59-9 in the first quarter this year.  In all 5 games, the other team had the ball first.  

 

Denver Hadn't lost a home game with a lead of 10 or more in the 4th quarter until KC did it a couple weeks ago.

 

Jacksonville hadn't allowed a first half TD this year until they played KC

 

Jacksonville hadn't allowed a 300 yard passer in their last 15 games until KC did it. (That includes their win over the PATS)

 

Jacksonville had never trailed in any game this season by more than 3 points until KC.

 

If KC wins this game they will have 2 game or better leads on New England, Jacksonville, and Pitsburgh, WITH tiebreakers head to head on all three,  for 1st in the AFC.

That is more than a couple. Seems like NE has KC right where they want them. In Arrowhead maybe a different story but in Foxboro I sadly must take the Pats.

I hear you about the offense. Although at times it’s dreadful to watch, I can see the O improving in some areas. One of these receivers have to step up and stand out in order for the O to have success. I still believe we will beat the Colts though.

Everyone says the Chiefs defense is suspect. This game should give us a good indication of how true this is. Hard to beat the Cheaters in Foxboro, although KC has been able to do this better than anybody lately. Go Chiefs!

How Dee Ford is Boosting the Chiefs’ Pass Rush

 

 
The Chiefs looked sloppy at times on Sunday, with Patrick Mahomes throwing not one, but two interceptions—his first and second of the season. There were serious discipline breakdowns too, with rushers Chris Jones and Dee Ford earning ejections for throwing a punch and taunting, respectively. And yet, despite all of the shortcomings, Kansas City has not looked this scary in a very long time.
 
In Sunday’s 30–14 victory over the Jaguars on Sunday, the Chiefs answered some big questions about the kind of team they’ll be when they play the best clubs in the NFL, when Patrick Mahomes isn’t throwing lights-out and the team needs outstanding performances on the other side of the ball to win. 
 
Don’t get me wrong: This was no masterpiece in the other phases. Kansas City gave up 502 offensive yards to a Blake Bortles-led team playing without its most dynamic player, injured running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring).

Game could come down to which D can actually make a single stop or two.  I obviously like the Pats chances but Kielce will have a huge game since the Pats can’t cover a TE if their lives depended on it.. but I have a feeling Mahomes will be fooled a couple of times and throw 2 picks in the game..

Haven’t been paying attention to any of the hype, but I’m curious as to how many times Belichick’s genius vs. rookie QBs has been mentioned by the talking heads. Never mind that Mahomes isn’t a rookie. 

 

Anyway, I don’t see how either defense stops the other’s offense in this one. But I think KC’s offense poses more problems for NE***. Bellyache can’t take away one single facet of KC’s personnel and dare you to beat him with somebody else because all of KC’s offensive skill players can hurt you. I just don’t think NE*** can say the same.

Don't be so sure. Belichick's team has been off since last Thursday to give them extra time to prepare for KC.

I’ve gotten to where I watch few full NFL games if the Bills are not in it. But I’m looking forward to this one. 

Record it, wait an hour, watch stoppage free, BS free, comment free, commercial free, and intermission free!

 

It's the only way to watch non-Bills NFL football!

 

The games are way too slow and disjointed to watch in real time.

Respectfully, I'd like to request that CB's (whether done by him or not, but it should be by him) "Marquee Match-up" be a weekly pinned item on TSW.

 

Thanks. I'm looking forward to the day when Bills' games are the Marquee Matchup of the Week several times each season.

Brother, I was thinking that, too!  :lol:

 

However, I think this is awesome.  Honestly, every week there has been at least one (sometimes more) phenomenal match-ups in the NFL.  I have no problem if the board celebrates that a bit, keeps track of it, and talks about it.

 

Kudos, CB!

Also looking at their D.. sooner or later a D THIS bad is going Bite them in the butt.  Last in yards allowed  19th in scoring D.   The O as dangerous as NE (chargers and Steelers) they gave up 28 and 37 points.. so while the Pats May lose the game going be like a backyard game high scoring and not much D.. (now watch it be a 10-3 game lol)

This either feels like a game where the Pats line up with 2 TE / 6 olinemen and run the ball 45 times while Mahomes has a couple turnovers and watches most of the game from the sideline and all anyone talks about is another early season Andy Reid mirage, or a game where the Chiefs hang 50 on them and we get more "demise of the Pats", with very little room in between.

NE will win this game, and I doubt it will even be close. As always, they look unstoppable on offense and KC has no defense. Nobody so much as touches Brady because he throws in 1.5 seconds and their WR are open by 5 yards on every play.I expect Josh Gordon to have a career resurgence and look like Randy Moss did there and for them to run up the score on everyone and go 14-2.

 

It is never going to end. Save yourself the trouble of getting all excited. All this talk of the "young guns" is cute filler from now until the NE SB party in February. The reason Belichick rolled his eyes is because the whole season is pointless because the story ends the same way seemingly every time.

 

Not to be negative or anything. I guess it's not negative if you're a Patriots fan, but for the rest of us this is all getting tedious.

Kansas City has outscored oponents 59-9 in the first quarter.  The other team has started with the ball all five games.  KC is no.1 in the NFL in third down efficiency in D and top 10 in sacks.  The D isn’t good but it isn’t bad and it’s been good when the games outcome is still in question. We’ve also played the Chargers and Steelers on the road, two of the better offenses in the NFL.

And your facing the Patriots on the road.. with Brady with his full compliment of WR/TE and 2 RB capable making a huge difference.. like I said going be a barn burner as both Os are very very good.. and both Ds are at best average..
