The Chiefs are also a few plays away from being 1-3.  The Bills are a blocked punt from being 4-0.  The Chiefs played a harder schedule so far but I just don't take any stock in this stuff.  A lot of games are close, so you can say "a few plays..." for most teams/games.  The Chiefs particularly play a lot of close games. They are just good enough to win most of them.  That doesn't always happen though.

 

That's just it with the Chiefs and Mahomes, outside of the SB loss to the Bucs they are always in games until the final minutes even when they lose like the Chargers and Ravens games so far this year. The closest thing to a blowout Mahomes has suffered in the regular season was the Raiders game last year when I believe they lost by 10 points at home early in the season, they then when on to essentially win out except for week 17 when all the starters sat.

 

It speaks volumes of how good Mahomes is that you truly need luck to beat him which is why the margin of error for the Bills on Sunday is razor thin despite all the metrics that indicate they very well be the best team in the NFL at present.

That’s good.  I don’t think KC has had to deal with it yet.   Also, it is very warm there.  It will make it a little cooler. 

 

I don't like it. Allen tries too much soft stuff in the rain imo and doesn't let it rip. Maybe it's recency bias.

I just want it to be close & competitive game dammit!

Andy Reid just has his way with us, Allen always starts slow & then gets in his own head trying to make plays, every bounce goes the wrong way, and flags seem to screw us in the worst possible moments.

 

I know people say there are no such things as moral victories, but I call BS. If our offense goes out there & plays like we're capable of, and we lose a close back & forth on the road, I'll be still be upset, but at least I'll have hope that EVENTUALLY we can beat the Chiefs.

I agree with you.

 

They got slapped both games last year. (I know it was a close first game but the chiefs dominated)

 

A win would be awesome of course, but they need to show they can at least play with the chiefs as they didn't show that last year.

I don’t want to put the blame on any one player for our loss to KC in the playoffs but the entire game went to crap after Devin Singletary dropped that wide open pass on third down forcing us to punt. People don’t forget, Devin. Hoping he can redeem himself this weekend. 


I don’t blame anyone for the loss of my legs - some Chinaman took them from me in Korea!

Looking at the Stats through week 4, Chiefs average 427.5 yards/game of offense.  Bills give up points at the rate of 1 point for every 19.7 yards gained, that says Chiefs should score 21-22 points.  Bills average 404 yards/game of offense.  Chiefs give up points at the rate of 1 point for every 14.0 yards gained, Bills should score 28-29 points.  28-21 Bills has a sweet sound to it.

I love math😀

Andy Reid has had his way with us since Mahomes got to KC 
 

McDermott beat Reid in 2017 at Arrowhead. 
 

Granted it was Tyrod Taylor against Alex Smith… but that Chiefs team was much more talented than us. Kareem Hunt, Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce, etc.

So basically a pickem game since home teams usually get 3…we know the Chiefs are going to dare the Bills to run and for Joshs 30th rated oline to give him happy feet in the pocket….we also know the book is out on Patty Mahomes he’s a whole different qb when his line doesn’t hold up 

I do agree with KC daring Buffalo to run the ball. We can’t come into this game one dimensional like last year. We have to mix in the run I for one would love for this offense line to be angry from last year and pound the ball on them.

KC daring anyone to run the ball at this point would be a bad idea

Get the feeling this matchup is turning into the Pats vs Colts during 2000’s.
