The Browns came inches from beating them because Mahomes got hurt in the 3rd quarter. He was 21/30 for 255 yards and a 1 TD passing and 1 TD rushing already at that point. 

 

KC is going to smash Tampa Bay. And I will enjoy seeing it. 

 

Tampa has not been driving the ball in their playoff wins. Both the Saints and Packers gift wrapped them short fields for TDs. Neither offense put any real pressure on Tampa to keep up. Yesterday Brady threw 3 picks and the Packers did next to nothing with them. The reason for all 3 of those picks was that Brady felt pressure and was trying to keep up to make sure Rogers couldn't come back. 

 

KC is going to score its points, and they have a DL that gets pressure from 3 different guys on a consistent basis. 

 

Chiefs will win by 10+ 

 

 

 

 

If thats what you would like to believe. Browns played the Chiefs better on both sides of the football and it wasn't even close IMO.

 

Yes, the Browns ability to get to Mahomes was part of it...

This is one of those where I won't know my own mind until the game begins.

- I like Mahomes. He's fun to watch and surprisingly lacking in arrogance for a guy who had such quick success

- I hate Brady. I dislike Tyreek. I kind of like the honey badger.

- But I really like Bruce Arians, and would like to see him ride off into the sunset with a ring

- I don't like Chiefs fans. I don't know anything about TB fans so I guess I like them better

- I usually root for the AFC team. I also like the idea that if the Chiefs win we can honestly say that we probably are the 2nd best team in the NFL. That somehow makes me feel better about yesterday.

I am a bundle of contradictions. Maybe I should sit this one out.

If KC wins, the AFC will be up 28-27 in SBs. My memory is long enough to remember when the Bills were losing SBs and people said they played in the JV  conference.

Let's accept your premise: the Browns did a better job against KC. 

 

The score was 19-3 at half and 22-10 at the end of the 3rd quarter, in which Mahomes was hurt. It took the Browns 3 entire quarters of football to score 10 points vs KC. 

 

Mayfield had 204 yards passing for the game with a TD and a INT. the Browns had around 110 yards rushing for the game.

 

Look at the stats for the Browns game and the Bills game vs KC, and keep in mind Mahomes missed a quarter and a half vs the Browns:

 

Browns: 308 total yards, 196 passing, 112 rushing, 5.1 YPP

Chiefs: 438 total yards, 315 passing, 123 rushing, YPP

 

Bills: 363 total yards, 234 passing, 129 rushing, 5.2 YPP

Chiefs: 439 yards, 325 passing, 114 rushing, 6.9 YPP

 

Bills outgained the Browns on the ground and in the air, gave up almost an identical number of yards (while facing Mahomes for the entire game, not 2.5 quarters) and scored more points. 

 

Not sure how the Browns did better.

You and me both, 

 

I hate K C with a passion. Hate the team and fan base.

 

Go GOAT!!! 

 

I'm ok with the officiating for the most part. Hill was just to fast, Kelce to big to mug.

A few days ago you were all chummy with the Chefs fans. What changed? 

 

Is this because ChiefsPlanet declined your invite to come here and vote on which man is sexier?

These power shifts between the conferences are still going on. Right now the AFC is the conference of the great young QBs: Mahomes, Allen, Watson (well, maybe), Jackson ... maybe even Mayfield and Burrow

NFC: the conference of old QBs still dominating - Brees (gone), Brady (please), Rodgers, with Murray as the young hope

I am relieved that Mahomes will be the one to suffer defeat at the hands of Brady. I am pissed that the league decided we didn’t get the opportunity by deciding the Honey badger and crew could blatantly mug Beasley and Diggs for an entire game. Sorensen and Matheu are dirty punks and our D didn’t play that game. I firmly believe that is why the Bills discipline meltdowns happened in the 4th qtr. That said TB is winning this title and Mahomes will have to settle for second place. I will actually pull for Brady for the first time in my life. 

I'm pulling for Mahomes. He's the best player in the league and it's not close. KC handed our assess to us fair and square. They're more talented and they played better. Deal with it.

This is an awful look for a so-called Bills fan.

Its a simple game plan. High percentage plays and run the football with Chubb. Keep K C's O off the field. Its not always about the points.

That game was only close because Mahomes went out with a quarter and a half to play.

Just don’t watch the SB like me. I can’t stand Mahomes and Brady just makes me sick every time I hear or see him. That equals this SB just making me ***** puke 🤮. Seeing Brady winning the first SB in the city of the team will just be so horrendous. I’m putting in a ton of OT during the super bowl to completely avoid it.

So they kept the Chiefs offence off the field for longer yet they managed to gain more yardage and that’s without Mahomes for a quarter and a bit?

To be honest, I was disappointed with the quality of both Championship games.

 

Tom Brady threw three freakin' picks.  Three.  Green Bay got 1 TD and 2 punts out of it.

 

When you can't capitalize on 3 picks, you kind of deserve to lose.

 

KC had a better defense that stopped our offense.  Our defense couldn't stop their offense.  They were the better team.

 

I will be rooting for KC because I'm damned if I want to see Brady get another ring, but I believe that KC's D will force mistakes and that their offense will capitalize.

I thought GB/TB was a pretty darned entertaining game.

 

Way better than ours, which would have been a lousy game to watch for any 3rd party fan.

Without even looking I suspect our leading rusher was Allen

[TheFunPolice]

and BTW, the Browns faced next to zero offense for about 20 minutes of football due to Mahomes injury and still couldn't get the job done. KC basically stopped being able to play offense in the 3rd quarter, minus one crazy scramble.

So those yards don't count?

 

Allen rushed for 88 yards, while Chubb (69 yards) and Hunt (32 yards) combined to just beat him out with 101 total. 

 

Another way to put that is Allen outrushed both Chubb and Hunt, who are a top notch running game. 

[OrtonHearsaWho]

To all of the people here that hate Mahomes...why?  He's an amazing player and seems like a good dude.  Yeah he's not a Bill but I think it's okay to like players on other teams.

 

I also agree that anyone rooting for the Bucs to win the game should have their head examined.  Literally anyone over Brady should be a pretty automatic Bills fan opinion.  If Hitler was QBing the Chiefs, I would root for the Chiefs.

If you call getting trolled immediately chummy. TBD was turning away anyone with an I P address from the area is why they were declined according to some of them. Bearcat, the mod that was himself, a nice guy IMO belongs to TBD. Perhaps he can chime in on it.

 

TBD always one step ahead luckily...

From what I've read here: Those yards don't count when they are accumulated by Lamar Jackson.

They do count when accumulated by Josh Allen.

The difference is that most of Allen's yards (to my memory) came on scrambles rather than designed runs.

 

When a defense doesn't have to stop the designed run plays, they can focus more on taking away the pass.

[Success]

I usually have a much stronger rooting interest in the Super Bowl (probably because the Pats are usually in it, and that's a no brainer).

 

I pulled for the Chiefs last year, and really like Mahomes. But man, that fanbase seems pretty toxic.  I know it's easy to generalize and there are always a "few bad apples," but the stuff I've seen on their board is unlike any other board I've visited.

 

They went from Jets-fan mentality to Pats-fan mentality x10, in no time flat.

I get that, but we also had more passing yards than the Browns.

 

The premise was that the Browns did a better job. Yet they had fewer yards and gave up almost identical total yards while facing a backup QB for a quarter and a half.

Just kidding.  A lot of people here disparage Lamar as more of a runner than a thrower. The fact that Allen's best plays yesterday came on runs doesn't seem to bother anyone.

You keep bringing the backup QB up like the Browns played no part in knocking Mahomes out of the game. Its all part of the 60 minutes.

 

You get that right?

It may have been true for a brief period of time because one of our members here was, well, a "member" and pulled a double jerkwad move, inviting trouble that mods would then have to clean up.  I don't know how Scott chose to deal with it but I do know he dealt with it so mods didn't have to, and I appreciate that.

 

I'm not happy with said poster nor impressed by his compliments and he'd be wise to hush up and Elsa, in the Frozen sense.

So the plan was to knock him out of the game?

 

So the Browns, who supposedly did better than the Bills, should get "credit" for knocking Mahomes out of the game in the 3rd quarter and STILL LOSING because they couldn't do anything on offense and couldn't stop a career backup who had never played a playoff game from scrambling for a huge gain in a huge spot. 

 

The score was 19-3 at the half. Epic game plan by the Browns! 

 

They couldn't run, didn't do much passing, and couldn't stop the backup QB when they needed to. Other than that, they did great!

Message boards are not the best indicator of a fan base.   If you were on Chiefsplanet, terms of endearment are go drink antifreeze etc for opposing fans.  This is their way of saying hello and that was communicated in the post, and not to take it personally.  That being said, all fan bases have their extremes.  If you are a good honest poster and not trolling you are welcomed there.  There are fans from the Raiders, Broncos, Pats and other teams that have been posting for over a decade and are respected.   Again, every message boards has it's *****... reading through here about smashing Mahomes head and stomping on his toes, you have yours as well.  However, the majority recognize the similarities between our two clubs and are excited that these two teams are the future of the AFC for the foreseeable future.    Some  young fans don't appreciate where the Chiefs were 30 years ago, and have only been big fans the last 6 years and don't realize the pain that was involved in all those years of failure.   When the Bills make it to the Superbowl, and they will, I will be rooting for them... because just like Chiefs fans, they deserve it.

Chiefs will win by 10+ 

 

 

 

 

The Chiefs are Thanos. They are straight up bullying teams.

 

Yesterday could have been 14 points worse in terms of margin, due to Hill dropping a perfect deep pass and Hardman fumbling the punt and handing us a TD.

 

 

 

 

Or Brown catch’s the ball and our tight end doesn’t alligator arm a sure catch or Singletary doesn’t drop a sure first down+.....

I appreciate the sentiments, and I'm sure there is truth there. But that board was crazy yesterday. I saw some Bills fans going there to give general congrats, and they got obliterated, by almost every poster.

 

I gathered reading the responses that many Bills fans, if that's what they were, talked too much smack there leading up to the game.  But some clearly came back to eat crow, and got slammed.  It was the ultimate sore winner situation.  When you win a game like that, how hard is it to be gracious?

 

I'm sure the internet isn't that indicative, and if I went to a Chiefs game, I'd probably have a great time tailgating.  Most fans are just fans pretty much everywhere. I just found my visit to that board yesterday to be notable for how hostile it was.  I found it unusual for a winning board after a game like that.

 

And I did see a few of the antifreeze comments. Thanks for the translation on that.

For the record, fans of other teams who post here to discuss football have always been welcome here (except when someone has the bright notion to kick over a beehive then run over here with the bees chasing them)

 

Mods will typically swat anyone who gives them ***** for no reason. 

 

We also put a stop to people suggesting or hoping for players (of either team) to be physically injured when we see it - Not Cool.  We don't see everything.

 

You guys played a great game yesterday and I hope you play as well and effectively against the Buccaneers and Tom Brady.  Frankly, IMO no QB who throws 3 picks should be playing in the Superbowl.  And yet, there they are, with homefield advantage to boot.

 

As someone said in that game day thread yesterday, "Brady must have a lucky horseshoe up his butt".  Please pull that thing out and throw it away.

 

Tampa Bay was mugging the GB WR as badly as you guys were mugging ours yesterday (not intended as a bash, part of the game unless the refs stop it).  The bad news for them is that Kelce's a hard guy to mug.  Hope you can work around it and kick their butts.

[TheFunPolice]

Tampa has not consistently had to drive the ball down the field.  Both NO and GB gift wrapped him a free TD. 

 

If KC doesn't turn it over and if they score the way they can Tampa will not be able to keep up. Brady is tossing air mail balls right to safeties.

Those that came back, even the ones that were truly trolling, got props for the majority of responses for coming back in and owning up to it, and acknowledgement this is a rivalry going forward.   As I said, every board has embarrassing posters, Rico is the perfect example on your board.  Looking forward to the AFC being shutout to the Ravens, Steelers, Donks and Pats for the foreseeable future with teams like the Chiefs, Bills and Browns leading the way.
