Game Balls, Bills v. Chefs, Week 5, 10/10/21

[Rocky Landing]

Moss has turned a corner. I feel like this was the game where he started to run with anticipation, and patience. And, he didn't fumble. He did have a drop, but hey, it was raining.

New rule, Josh Allen gets an automatic game ball for each Bills win.  Outside the intentional grounding, he was awesome today.

"Dawesome" Knox - Dude has become nails, leaving "Dropsome" in the rearview mirror.  He was a man amongst boys tonight.

Emmanuel "Colonel" Sanders - Finger lickin' good TD's, he's a definite upgrade from John SmokeY Brown (I'm a huge SmokeY fan, but can't lie, Sanders is better for this offense).

Zack "Z Mo" Moss - Made up for the drops, with tough runs and nice receptions.  Finished off the Chefs in style.

"The Crazy World of" Spencer Brown - A revelation at RT, allowed us to move Williams to RG, and our offense took off from there.

 

Greg "Groot" Rousseau - Mercilessly held all game long, the pick sealed the deal.  The absolute steal of the 2021 Draft.

AJ Klein - Came in for Cookie, was not torched at all, big reason that the Bills D completely stoned the KC offense.

DB's/Safeties - KC got theirs, but not enough.  Huge PD's, tight coverage, and sure tackling won the day.  "Dr. Jekyll and" Micah Hyde changed the game with that pick 6.  Tre' White with the massive fumble recovery to completely ice the game.

 

WHO YA GOT?

 

 

I mean you covered everyone lol

 

Agree on all points though 

[Rocky Landing]

In the fourth quarter, the D-line rotation, one of the hallmarks of this defense, had the Chiefs O-line utterly gassed.

The Pass rush was outstanding....hurried Mahomes in his throws that were inaccurate. 

They kept their discipline for the most part and kept him hemmed in more often than not.

[BigDingus]

I feel like we need to start embracing Emmanuel Sanders more.

 

Some people on here were complaining about him early on, saying he's taking away targets from better guys or should be replaced with Gabe Davis.

 

The guy has EARNED his spot on the roster & is still a legit threat. I absolutely love his game!

[Solomon Grundy]

Can we give a game ball to Brandon Beane!! He addressed their issues superbly this offseason. Groot, Boogie, Sanders. What a team

[die hard bills fan]

everyone

[Rocky Landing]

Greg Rousseau. Holy crap! The only sack on Mahomes, crucial in stopping the run, and how often do you see an interception four yards away from the QB?

[Clark Rotary]

McD - Chiefs needed this game more.... we wanted this game more

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

Fourth straight blow out win of the year. And like the others, entire team gets a game ball. Loved seeing Air Allen back.

[BuffaloBillyG]

For me, for this win...only 1 game ball given.

 

Coach McD. This game from kickoff to the end and enduring that odd halftime had his gritty spirit all over it. This one is all his leadership imo

[njbuff]

To hold the Chiefs to only 20 points in THEIR building is a great accomplishment.

 

Well done.

[sven233]

We didn't have 1 bad player on the field tonight.  Even if guys got beat on a play or 2, they more than made up for it at some point in the game. 

 

This was a true "team" win.  Everyone deserves a game ball.

 

All that said, Groot needs to see more snaps going forward.  The man is an absolute beast and is squarely in the Defensive Rookie of the Year conversation.  In fact, the conversation should start with him at this point.  He's exactly what this D-Line has been missing.

 

But yeah......everyone did their part.  This was a complete team effort.  As complete a game in all 3 phases as you could ask for.  Was it perfect?  No.  Still some things to clean up, but those things will be there in every game.  The biggest thing is coming out with the "W", though.

for his 3 receptions that were absolute gold and for the HUGE amount of crow I continue to ingest - happily I might add!!!!  I was hard on the kid....so so so glad he is making me chow crow!!!

Oh and my newest favoritorist dude on da Bills - Numbah 79 Spencer muther fricking Brown!!!

Agreed.  In the early days, I was one of the nay-sayers on Sanders play.  He has really come on.  Double teaming Diggs has exposed 1-on-1 coverage for both Sanders and Knox and this year they are TAKING ADVANTAGE OF IT !!!!!

Well done.

and then score 38 against them in that same building....it was awesome to see Josh composed through the whole game (which is usually very difficult).

[TPS]

While Rousseau stood out, everyone on that DLine had their moment. Only two sacks, but they got constant pressure with zero blitzes.

Next, avenge last year's Titan loss...

Frazier 

Frazier has been substantially better this year than any other. It could be because of the new DL and Star returning and the fact they have the same guys in the system 3-4 years. But he has been pulling all the right strings. Really good coaching pregame and during game.

Defense. This should count as another shutout. The chefs didn't move the ball at all with out help from the refs. 

So true. Literally every point the Chiefs scored was aided by the refs. Every. One.

I lean towards the 3-4 years together in the system. Our back seven can complete each others’ sentences by now. That was on full display tonight. But having a solid nine man D line rotation and Star back is a big factor as well. Can’t wait until our arguably best player on D returns, too. 

[Big Blitz]

Hyde

Knox

Edmunds

 

The O and D line - total redemption from January.  

 

 

 

Special game ball to the refs.  Thank you for all you guys do.  Watching the game is more enjoyable knowing how much of an impact you have.  The holding penalties on 1st down.  The holding call on a DB on 3rd and 15.  You managed to train us into waiting after every sensational play, to properly wait a few seconds before celebrating.  Instant joy must be tempered until we see you've approved of the outcome of said play.  This is why we love you guys.  Great work.

That drive was huge...Over the last 25 years, we were usually used to be on the receiving end of such drives....not anymore.

This.   Edmunds the last 2 weeks has been a beast. 

Ps.  I said it last year too.  Moss has a knack for icing games. He gets an honorable mention too.

Freddie, you nailed it with just an add we outcoached KC on all levels.

[Jumpsuit Jim]

Knox. 
 

We just played the Chiefs, and Dawson Knox was the best Tight End on the field. 
 

Think about that.

No need to apologize for questioning his play, just for losing patience too soon.

How often?  Last time I’ve seen it was JJ Watt’s interception of EJ.  Elite play.

[Ya Digg?]

Edmonds was all over the place, he had a great game. He blew up a couple of running plays and the play where he was somehow guarding Hill he made Mahomes make just a terrible throw 

[Max Fischer]

I don’t understand how Frazier isn’t a head coach. 

[OrtonHearsaWho]

The shorter list would be who had a bad game.  Seriously...who had a bad game last night!

[RichRiderBills]

I just want to talk about Groot.

 

Last Spring, we were hurting from the loss to the Chiefs, still with their own loss to the Bucs fresh in our heads, fortunate enough to get a blueprint, and now knowing what we needed to improve. Yet instead of spend big bucks in FA on goofs like Ngata, we went risky.... but old school and kept faith in tried and tried mechanics...aka the draft. We essentially drafted Groot and Boogie to "Get Mahomes"....and last night was the pay dirt.

 

Groot was a menace Sunday night, fulfilling our hopes and dreams and making an impact. So excited we seem to have hit on this guy and are already seeing results.

Another couple games from Edmunds like that and we're gonna get hit with the breaking news Edmunds extended tweet from Sal.

Moss had 5 carries for 23 yards & 2 first downs after the Tre fumble recovery, burned through KC's time outs and got us to the 2:00 warning

Ya know who else thought that drive was huge? Patrick Mahomes. It was a distinct pleasure seeing a shot of Mahomes, every minute or two, gritting his teeth in frustration that his team was being managed. Pure schadenfreude, sure, but utterly enjoyable.
