One could argue that it doesn’t matter where teams are at the end, if the Bills can’t beat the Chiefs. The road to the Super Bowl likely goes through KC.

I wouldn’t make that argument at all after 5 games. We went to Arrowhead in October in 1991 and got our asses handed to us 33-6. Besides, all that matters is where teams are at the end. KC has already lost two conference games in the first four. Nothing can be determined this early.

I think maybe you missed my point. IF we can’t beat KC, then it likely doesn’t matter where we are the end, or where they are. Whether we are the 1st seed, 3rd seed, or 7th seed, we likely will have to beat KC to get to the Super Bowl. Seeding only matters in figuring out which round we have to play them.

 

We need to be able to beat KC for it to matter.  And if we lose Sunday, that’s 3 times in 12 months that we lost to them. Thats a lot different than 1991.

Do you realize that this makes absolutely no sense? If you are on the podium holding up the Lombardi Trophy, THAT matters. That is the END.  Week 5 only decides……..week 5.

Ugh it’s like a bunch of whining children around here. This is just a W5 football game and the Bills players and coaches aren’t worrying about whether they are jinxed against KC. It’s a good measuring stick but nothing close to determining who will go to the Super Bowl when there are 12 more games to play.

 

So much drama. Just enjoy the moment.

Within the context of what we were speaking, I thought “the end” meant the end of the season. Where we are seeded. Obviously not the end as in the Super Bowl winner.

According to Sanders, you may not be totally correct. He mentioned that the players still talk about that loss to KC and he said it was like a fresh bruise and they keep going over what they could have done differently. It sounds like this game means much more to them than a random W5 game.

You think KC is a bad match up for the Bills?

2019 schedule was a cake walk…. Just a slew of ***** QBs after ***** QBs…. But this team is a lot better than that 2019 team and this schedule has its fair share of middling QBs as well. 
 

I agree, Bills should easily win 12 games. Could see them winning 14 if they split or sweep these next two.

please get permission next time.  i'll let this slide.

Am I missing something?  Isn’t KC a .500 team right now with two losses already?  Sure, they are a very talented team, but the way some people are talking, they are an unstoppable train.

Record doesn't mean crap until the end.

 

You do realize they had a -4 turnover differential against the Chargers and still should have won.

 

Also the Ravens had to put up 30+ points and have a gifted fumble.

 

Watch the games. KC is not an unstoppable train but so far in the season they are playing horrible on D and sloppy on offense and they are still a juggernaut.

I get all of that.  The fact remains that they have lost half their games this season.  Are they a very good team? Absolutely.  So are the Bills.

Until Monday morning, after the Bills beat them on their own field.  Then they’ll be a troubled team with injuries.   And the Bills will have been lucky to play them while they’re in such a slump.
