The Chiefs have scored more points than the Bills (159-152) and Mahomes has thrown more TDs than Allen (15-14), which I have seen both items brought up nationally in talking points. ( "As good as the Bills are the Chiefs have scored more points." yada, yada, yada "Allen is #2 in TD passes, but look who is #1!") What they don't bring up is that Allen has played 2 less quarters than Mahomes through five games due to the un. merciful. bludgeoning. of two of the teams they played this season. ...again, through five games. Throw all the QB stats out. It means nothing! Obviously, the two QBs are elite. This is about a great game plan, adjustments, and execution.

I wouldn't go as far to say the Bills are the "superior team" this year. I do believe that the Bills are the better team talent wise and on paper. However, I don't think the gap is huge. For example, the difference between Buffalo and Pittsburg was huge for obvious reasons. The KC team led by Mahomes is more than capable of beating the Bills. This game is most likely a dogfight til the end. Most seasonal football fans and experts don't see a blowout for Buffalo. KC just has a high gear. We saw this against the Raiders. You can outplay them, but I think we all knew, once the Chiefs scored that first TD to make it 17-7, they weren't going to be stopped the rest of the night. Certainly at 20-10 I knew the Raiders were going to lose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was worth it to go up 21-0. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGFOOTspaceman Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 If McD and Frazier go into this game with the same gameplan from last year I am going to be supremely disappointed. Need to play them the way we played the Ravens in the second half.....Bills contained Lamar, stopped the run and took away the TE and let the DB's and Safety's do their thing. Its going to be huge not having to worry about Tyreek....Besides....we already played Tyreek this year and kept him in check then. Bills by 40 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to argue that the Chiefs are not a great team, but It wasn't like the Chiefs blew the doors off of them after finding the higher gear. The 1-3 Raiders forced them to punt at the end of the game and had the chance to drive to kick the game winner. They got all the way to the LV 47. If Adams doesn't bobble that ball, the Raiders win that game. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have to remember the Chiefs missed a FG, and got bailed out by the Raiders on another miss. End of the 1st-Half was Touchdown - FG - 2nd Half - Touchdown - Touchdown - Touchdown - then the Punt. It just seems that at some point in the game you're going to have to trade TDs and once again the Raiders weren't up to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also to add the Raiders going for the 2 point conversion was dumb at that point in the game. Kick the extra point. There was 4 minutes left. The Raiders were going to have play D so might as well play D with the game tied instead of trailing by one. Who knows how it turns out. Maybe it goes to OT and the Raiders end up winning. We will never know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a contributor in the Chiefs game, but hasn't produced his usual outside of the 60-yard catch. Knox hasn't done anything of note this year.

Beck Water Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 31 minutes ago, Straight Hucklebuck said: Kelce is 33 now, has there been any signs that he is easier to cover? In a word: No. He's right on pace for where he was last season. 6-7 receptions per game, 70 Y/G 31 minutes ago, Straight Hucklebuck said: And to your point, if Mahomes is getting the ball out in less than 2-seconds, I think the most direct path that the Bills can take is to play more man, and press man at that. Who are these Bills CB who are going to excel at press man coverage vs. Kelce? Dane Jackson can not play press man. Tre White can play press man, he is not gonna play. Elam may be able to play press man against KC eventually. He was drafted to provide that ability with the hope he could develop into a quality off ball corner. But right now, if you put Elam alone on Kelce I think Kelce will shake him off like your pesky 7 year old sister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 54 minutes ago, FilthyBeast said: My biggest concern with this matchup is coaching, I still don't trust McD against his former mentor and boss when it really matters and the 13 seconds debacle was a microsm of that. I also wonder about the fact that Mahomes has been great his entire career with varying degrees of talent around him, while the Bills pretty much have needed to assemble a superteam just to have a chance to finally get past KC this year. In the end the 2022 is going to be a defining season for this franchise in that we either finally climb the mountain and throw the chiefs over the side of it on the way, or the realization sets in that the Bills are always going to be 2nd fiddle to the Chiefs and Mahomes as another Brady/Pats situation manifests itself the next 15+ years. I don't know that 2pt conversion Reid went for against the Raiders was pretty stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVEMESOMEBILLS Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 13 minutes ago, Straight Hucklebuck said: Can they stop Kelce? I think, by far, the most important question is do the Chiefs have an answer for Josh, not can the Bills stop Kelce. Through the first 5 weeks the Chiefs have 1,907 total yards. Josh has 1,876 total yards by himself, only 31 yards less than the entire Chiefs offense. He's on pace to shatter Drew Brees record for the most total yards per game average for a season by a QB(347.63 vs 375.2). And is really close to Peyton Manning's record of most total TDs per game average for a season by a QB(3.5 vs 3.2). Add to that the most passing yards this year, 2nd most passing TDs, most total TDs and 4th best QB Rating and it's clear to see KC coming up with ways to stop him is the most important aspect of this game. GO BILLS!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
