What is your gut telling you right now?


Recommended Posts

That this is the week we actually connect on one of those deep balls where the receiver has a step or more on the trailing DB.  We've had about 1 perfect opportunity for those a week for like 2 months now, and to my recollection haven't actually connected on any of them.

 

(Note: I don't just mean deep shots in general, like Diggs' great contested catch last week.  I mean more like Gabe's 99 yard TD against the Steelers last year.)

My gut is telling me that late night Mighty Taco i ate was a bad idea. For the big game tho? Its hard to pick against the BILLS at home in January vs our rival KC.

This has been a goal of ours since those 13 seconds. We have KC at home, now its time to take advantage of it.

This team has surprised me & even impressed me with how resilient they have been thruout these past couple years.

Now they can put all the bs aside & just focus on 1 thing, winning the next game. I think they do, but its important we get out to a fast start.

We cant revert back to a few weeks ago where our offense doesn't get started til the 2nd qtr. Thats not gonna fly vs KC.

Sitting on the sidelines at Highmark in the cold, looking up at the scoreboard to see you're losing, while Josh & the BILLS offense maintains drives & keeps you off the field, it has to suck. That's what i hope to see vs KC

I wouldn't sleep on Mahomes coming back even if we're up by 17.  

 

Per my initial post here, if we go up and start playing conservatively on offense to "kill the clock" or whatever, IMO that will be a mistake.  We need to try to score on every single drive.  

 

Otherwise, to add to what you said, TOs will also be key.  We are 8-2 when the opponent commits 2+ TOs.  We are 3-5 when we commit 2+ TOs.  So there's that.  

 

 

I will. Mahomes couldn’t come back in our earlier meeting. He’s only 3-4 when an opponent scores 10 points first this year.

I feel pretty relaxed going into this one.  We've gone toe-to-toe with the Chiefs enough over the past few years to know what's in store.  It's going to be a hell of a game and a tough victory for whomever moves on to the AFC Championship.  And in some ways, given our start and the injuries to the defense, it feels like we are playing with house money at this point.

KC is 9-0-1 against the spread on the road since 2017

KC has been to 5 straight AFC Championship games

 

^^^^^^^ This

 

Also throw in the 3 Superbowls, 2 championships, and Mahomes only playoff losses against Brady x 2 (one OT) and Burrow (OT).

 

Obviously would love to be dead wrong but I'll believe it when I see it.

KC has only played 10 road games since 2017?  Somebody needs to talk to the schedule makers about this...it's an outrage!

 

Also, they've been to those AFCCGs playing at home the whole time.

 

When has Mahomes ever faced the sort of road environment he's walking into Sunday night?

 

And...drum roll...he doesn't have the better team...

The emergence of Rashee Rice is a little concerning, though. It gives Mahomes somewhat of a legitimate threat outside of Kelce

 

Said all along this would happen come playoff time especially since everyone things the key to the Chiefs offensive struggles this year is just stopping/limiting Kelce.

 

Rice torched a much better Dolphins secondary than the Bills and definitely could see another monster game against the Bills who aren't going to be near 100% healthy even if key guys play.

My gut doesn't know what to think. One the one hand the Chiefs' O hasn't been clicking. On the other hand, our injuries on D.

 

Kelsey hasn't been great since he started dating TS. My guess is that he's being drained of his precious bodily fluids.

Rice, Kelce and Pacheco if you can stop 2 of the 3 I think you can stop the Chiefs offense.

They've only played 10 times on the road since 2017?  :)

They might have the names, but as a unit they are not that great

Against the spread....

I said this in another thread, but I feel our bills win 35-10. That’s what my gut tells me 


This would be absolutely amazing.  It's certainly possible.  

I really expect Mahomes to be fired up to prove the narrative wrong about the road  (granted he is 10 TD & 8 INT away this year)

I also think their whole team will still be pissed from the Toney incident, and use it as their motivation
