Some interesting factoids from Twitter. Visiting defenses get called for holding at a huge (statistical outlier) rate in Kansas City but the advantage almost goes away when on the road. 

 

Conversely, Kansas City's pass defense is much worse on the road.

At least they call roughing the passer better: 

 

Allen - 7

Mahomes - 3 

 

Although that's probably attributed to allen scrambling more often.

Well here we are, the game that everyone seems to have wanted.

 

But still think in this situation you have to go with the better QB, coach and defense and that's the Chiefs across the board which is why having home field this time likely won't matter.

 

Praying I'm wrong for sure though.

Bass and Martin--I am more than concerned.

 

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bills move on from Tyler Bass in the off-season. He has more than a case of the yippies--something fundamental is off.

I’m concerned about Dawson Knox.  For every great catch he has 10 drops.  He is a major liability and his contract is plain awful.

Can you show your work on that math?

no excuses on defense.  The LBs are injured.  You have your top CB (Douglas) back.  2 of the top safeties in the league, and a great DL.  No excuses for this D.  

No excuses? A rookie and Klein? The same Klein who was on his couch two days prior. 
 

You think Reid isn’t gonna exploit the middle of the field with the best TE in the game? What about one of the hardest running backs in the game with Pacheco?

 

Bernard and Dodson have been stellar all year. Without them we are at a large disadvantage against the chiefs plain and simple.

Man we gotta win this. I am beyond sick of KC.  I want a clean *** whipping, no ref issues.

You might get the first one but that second one is guaranteed to fail. I would take the over on that one.

I don't, just being realistic. There's a reason why the Bills are only 2 point favorites at home and suspect that line moves in KC's direction as the week plays out.

 

Obviously I've been wrong before but the Chiefs looked extremely dominant against the same Dolphins team we barely beat the week before. They are 7-2 on the road this year and will have a massive chip on their shoulder heading into Buffalo to not only kill the 'never played a road playoff game' narrative and prove that their loss against the Bills last month was a fluke because of that Toney offside crap. They know they are also living rent free in the entire Bills organization heads after the last playoff meeting too.

 

If the Bills can jump on them similar to what happened the first time and yesterday against the Steelers I think they obviously have a shot.

But tell me the truth, Beast...

Does it make you sad that your favorite team has to give up the "Fins up" slogan because Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville group trademarked it?

That's just factually not true.  Knox is not a + catcher, but he isn't a 1 for 11 type of player.  I believe he is at 60% catch rate for the season.  Also, he is a ++ blocker, and is a necessity in this offense.

Sorry, I'm already pumped. I want to start the thread today. No time to waste. And CBS is already hyping next Sunday's game big time.

 

[EDIT: I just noticed @BillsFan619's thread, posted an hour earlier. I looked, but apparently not good enough. I'm sorry about that. Mods: feel free to merge!]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wish I could have 13 seconds erased from my memory, but I gotta hear about it every time the Bills play the Chiefs. Buffalo needs to win this game. They have to.

There is something to be said for the Bills finding a way to win so many different ways this year even with all the injuries and bit role players stepping up.

 

If Allen plays like he did in the last playoff meeting between these teams, the Bills win by two scores. KC doesn't have that type of scoring capability even with the D banged up...assuming we get some players back who missed the Steelers game also.

 

Since you basically trash the Bills and are negative and pessimistic anytime you can, not sure why you consider yourself a fan.

That narrative is starting to fade, imo.

 

Anytime it's brought up now, the main argument for Mahomes is titles & title game appearances.  But this isn't golf or tennis.

You realize we only "barely beat" them because we kept turning the ball over? We drove the ball on that defense all game and Allen threw a pick, fumbled another time and then Johnson got tackled at the 1 yard line. If we finish those drives the way we should have, we would have beat them 42-14. If you think the Dolphins did things to really hinder us, you're way off. We beat ourselves. And the Chiefs got them at home in -30 weather, come on now

The best TE is starting to show his age. I am not saying he can't or won't make some plays but as far as their offense goes, I am more concerned about Pacheco and Rice and Mahomes obviously.

Agree 100% with this, but the Chiefs and Mahomes are obviously a different animal then most of the teams we've played in recent weeks including beating them in KC which the entire Chiefs organization believes was a fluke because of a questionable call and will make sure they aren't in position for that to happen again.

 

Also why should I be questioned as a fan because I believe the team that is 2-0 against the Bills in the playoffs, has the best QB in the NFL, been to 3 superbowls (won 2 including last year), etc isn't going to take care of business and do what they always do regardless of finally getting homefield in Buffalo?

 

If the Chiefs had looked like trash and barely beat the Dolphins I'd probably have a much different feeling right now. But they didn't, and looked like a team ready to win another championship especially since the offense was clicking magically.

What they are failing to realize is that Allen would have had plenty of time to drive down the field and give them a dagger game sealing TD like he had 3 other times in the last 2 games there.

 

Also, the Dolphins had zero chance in that game. They lost before even stepping off the plane.

Obviously this part is up for debate. But i would give pause because of how good the Chiefs defense is (and real reason I think the Bills lose this game) and I believe the only game winning drive they gave up all year in the final 2 minutes was the opener against the Lions when Jones and Kelce were out.

For every “good catch” not every catch.  Knox drops way too many passes, like the one last night that was right in the great basket…Pat Williams would have caught that one.

And I will give you pause that they never faced Superman in any of those other games either.

 

Allen has a cape that nobody in the league has that he can put on. Not even Mahomes.

did you guys stop to consider that ZeroVoltz or whtever his name is, is the most socially adapted erudite KC fan?

 

He's literally their goodwill ambassador, the very best they have.

That possibility is horrifying. It's like seeing a chthonian monster looking like the Creature From the Black Lagoon rise up out of the waters of Lake Erie and hearing an old salt going "Oh good, they sent the nice one this time"

Also, there was nothing questionable about that Offside call. WR was clearly offside by a lot. Not a matter for debate.

Folks, with what’s left of our broken D, this will be a huge challenge. Sure glad it’s home crowd to help. This will come down to the 2-3 pts. Josh will win the game by 0 turnovers 

 

Nonsense.

 

The O is fine and all but injury free.

 

The strength of this team should be Allen & the Offense.  

 

KC's run D is incredibly suspect.  When they've allowed 118+ rushing yards they're 3-5.  Not, 9-1.

 

Their rushing D is average at best.  

 

Their offense is patently average this season.  

 

If we can't log 150 rushing yards ...

you posted countless times that the bills wouldn't make the playoffs.  when they looked like they could, you said they'd be one and done.  you're right...here we are.  you were wrong yet again.

What’s your initial thought on how we stack up to Lamar and company provided we take care of business yet again this week? I bet I already know. 🤗
