1/21/24 Division Playoff GAMEDAY Bills vs Chiefs Pregame Thread

THIS IS WHAT WE’VE WANTED! Playing at Home vs KC in the Playoffs!

 

Of course, at Home in January means both teams battle Old Man Winter as well as each other and today is no exception. At least they’re somewhat familiar with freezing temps -if not back to back ‘snowpocalpses’.. For all the uncertainty that was the Bills this season, we’re 8-1 at Home! The Bills extended their current winning streak to 6 games beating Pittsburgh handily last week while the defending Champions finished their season at 5-4 before beating the hapless fish last week at Home.

 

Yet again though, we couldn’t escape injuries. Gabe Davis and Taylor Rapp still can’t play and now we’ve lost the services of CB Christian Benford and LB Babylon Spector, while P Sam Martin is Questionable. BUT, CB Rasul Douglas IS back and star LB Terrel Bernard and All Pro nickel Taron Johnson MAY return today.. 🤞

 

No sooner did I dub Khalil Shakir WR2 when he made a jaw-dropping, unbelievable play that clinched the victory last week as well as 2 other meaningful catches throughout the game! We’ll need more of the same today as the Chiefs are a top Defense, 2nd in sacks and 2nd in total Defense overall. Chris Jones & Karlaftis have 21 sacks combined and Steve Spagnola has transformed the Secondary into an elite corps, though we can attack Watson. They now roll with QB spies -which may be to their detriment shadowing our QB.. But this a decidedly different Offense than the League is used to. As their recent record suggests, they are no longer rolling every team, barely scoring in the low 20’s pts/game. Yes, Mahomes is still brilliant and can will his team to victory, but his supporting cast is simply ordinary. Kelsey has ‘other interests’ (see Swifty in a box here today!), their receivers are middling and their OLine is susceptible to the rush. Plus their OT is the most penalized player in the League! But their RBs can take over a game. I expect our pass rush to keep Mahomes on his toes today and  so relieved Daquan Jones is back and playing great!

 

Speaking of the Scarlet and Royal Blue, our Offense has come together since Joe Brady took over play calling. Knox is back and fully involved in 12 personnel groupings with the wunderkid Dalton Kincaid -who’s getting more impactful with each game. Knox’s TD catch last week moved him ahead of no less than Jerry Rice in career playoff TDs! 😳   Pro Bowl bound RB James Cook is COOKING and our OLine is playing exceptionally! Were it not for ST injuries and unexpectedly poor kicking by Tyler Bass, our Offense has hit its stride just in time for KC.

 

[insert weekly paragraph] Then, there’s Josh Allen.

 

 

*NSFW


Allen loves playing KC and dueling with Mahomes! These 2 surefire HOFers are at their very best when they face each other and the whole football world loves it even more! Simply put, these 2 guys turn chaos into an art form! Just when you think you’ve seen everything from Josh, he takes off on a 52 yard scramble TD! in the Playoffs! He was error free last week, bringing him to a perfect 18-0 when he doesn’t turn the ball over. He personally whooped the Steelers with 70% completions, 3 pass TDs plus his unconscious runs for another 74 yrds! NO ONE has ever seen the likes of him before! So  CHERISH IT! RELISH IT! LIVE IT! This is what he and all of us WANT!

These are the Best of Times!

 

Joe Marino chimes in

 

(btw, Ravens await the winner..)

 

“3 MORE!”

 

WE GOTTA BELIEVE! 

 

GO BILLS!

Happy Game Day TBD! As Chandler said above, "THIS IS WHAT WE’VE WANTED! Playing at Home vs KC in the Playoffs!" Well, here we are. Twelve more hours to try and distract ourselves - it will be a long day. Try to be productive and kind today, and then get ready for this week's game of the year.

 

The JV game starts at 3 today, and the varsity rolls out at 6:30.

 

And I really don't care how we do it, but . . .

 

 

LET'S GO BUFFALO !!!

A few days ago, I drunk ordered one of those massive, oversized bills hats.  It arrived yesterday.  Today before the game, I will wear the hat and present it to my family as a show of dominance. There will be no way the bills will lose this game. You’re welcome.

Why in the world did I never get into really hard drugs in my life?

 

I could so use them right now.

 

🤢🤮😵‍💫🫨🥴🤪

 

I am literally going crazy and getting massively sick.

 

Go to **** all you lunatics who are “so excited.”

 

I am a God fearing man, but one who will be sitting in his pew today with his family smoking cigarettes and shaking a tumbler of whiskey on the rocks just to cope.

 

Go Bills!  Go my sanity.

In the beginning…

 

It was almost 7 weeks ago and I put on my favoured Bills sweatshirt, one of several things passed along from my deceased Brother In Law. I expected to be doing so for the final time, as the 11th ranked Bills headed to Arrowhead in this FUBARed 2024 Season.

 

But the plucky Bills held serve and we witnessed both Kermit & Snot Nose melt down. THEY most assuredly had an uneasy sense of the today to come and were really pissed about being unable to knock out their most hotly contested and yearly rival to get to the AFC Championship. THAT was highly amusing.

 

Still, the Chiefs had cream puffs on their upcoming schedule… at home… and the Bills were still what… 9th overall in the Playoff hunt?
 

And then there were EIGHT.

 

Wore the Sweatshirt that entire week until the next game,the incredible beat down of the Cowgirls. Chiefs beat the Cheats- of course.

 

Wore the Sweatshirt that entire week until the next game, where the Bills stumbled, bumbled & fumbled their way through the pathetic Chargers. Settled in for the MNF beatdown of the 49ers by Lamar. Only then, did I realize… holy *****… the pathetic Raiders upset the Chiefs at Arrowhead, giving Bills fans a very late, but much appreciated Christmas present.

 

SEASON ON! At this point, only fools didn’t recognize what was shaking down. When asked asked by random people… and yes…”Wore the Sweatshirt that entire week until the next game” I said… “the ONLY goal now is not to merely make the Playoffs, it is to seize that #2 Seed from the Chiefs! I don’t want the Bills to back in… I want Paddy to be forced to come to ORCHARD PARK… for the first time ever.. to be beaten!!”
Bills stumble and bumble a bit, after cruising early against the Cheats.

 

Setting all the marbles up for the Squishing of the Fraud Fish! And…”wore the Sweatshirt that entire week until the next game.” Fish got mamalled!

 

Then I said, and now there are FOUR! And…”Wore the Sweatshirt that entire week until the next game.” I expected a Home victory against the #7 Squeelers, but did not want any looking ahead. Mission accomplished.

 

And then there were THREE!

Right here, right now!

 

I only had trepidation last week, worried about a possible stumble against an inferior opponent. Today, in about 10 hours… ALL the demons get exorcised! Kermit et al are finally sent packing. And why would that be? Because the Bills are going to play like the monsters we saw against Dallas- that hurting D is going to pile drive Kelce, Pacheco, Rice and hurry Paddy on every play.

 

And the Unicorn is going to run it up- LARGE!

 

Because THIS time, the OP 12th Man Mafia is going to do what I and 78,000+ madmen did 30 years ago at 2 AFC Championship and multiple Playoff games

 

… MAKE SURE THAT MAHOMES CAN’T HEAR HIMSELF, FROM THE TIME THEY HEAD TO THE HUDDLE UNTIL THE BALL IS SNAPPED ON EVERY PLAY!

Make Dawkins and every Bills fan proud!

Make certain there is a constant, plane takeoff din happening!

If you have to stand for the entire game, DO SO… as I did before!

Make us all proud.

Make it… “and then there were two” for next week!

And of course…”Wore the Sweatshirt that entire week until the next game” Unwashed and awaiting its finest hours!

 

DO YOUR JOB! 

 

LET’S GO 🦬!

This is it. This is the game we have been waiting for. Kermit in our house in the playoffs. Then, to top it off we get a Kansas City team that isn't quite what they have been in years past.

 

No excuses. None. We need to get this done tonight. Winning today erases a lot of bad vibes from the recent past. Shows a McDermott led Bills team belongs at the top of the AFC conversation. Losing, and yet again become the Chiefs postseason b**** and I'll move into the "a shakeup is needed" crowd. Can't get bounced by KC again.

'This is a massive, historic game'

 

 

It's only fitting that Kansas City stands in the way of Buffalo's first AFC Championship appearance since 2021 – when the two teams met in Arrowhead Stadium with Kansas City getting the better of the Bills.

 

Six weeks ago, the Bills traveled to Kansas City with what seemed like the season on the line. After the bye week, Buffalo was 6-6 and the 11th overall seed in the AFC – meaning they were well outside of the playoff picture with the toughest stretch of their schedule coming up.

Kyle Brandt of the NFL Network compared the two star quarterbacks to Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, who shared a historic rivalry as two of the greatest of all time at the position. Just like Brady got the best of Manning in their first two matchups, Mahomes has two wins over Allen between each of their postseason matchups, both of which were held in New England.

 

Manning got Brady back in their third matchup, which was in Indianapolis. Now that Allen will finally host Mahomes in the playoffs, will he repeat the same fate?

 

"This is a massive, historic game," Brandt said. "There are three really good games this weekend and then there is one chapter in a saga. This is a saga in a franchise that we will talk about for decades, the Bills gotta have this one. They gotta have it."

 

 

Garrett Podell | CBS Sports:  Josh Allen will have a career playoff game in Bills’ win

 

Since letting James Cook cook in the Bills 31-10 win over Dallas, Josh Allen has averaged 242 passing yards, 2.75 total touchdowns and 50 rushing yards per game. With the Bills quarterback playing at an MVP-level, Podell predicts that Buffalo wins a barnburner thanks to a heroic performance from Allen.

 

"Josh Allen is coming off the first playoff game ever with three passing touchdowns, at least 70 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown on Monday in the victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers. … So what will happen when the Bills star quarterback collides with the Chiefs defense? Allen shreds Kansas City's 'D' that loves playing with its back turned to the quarterback, providing just enough production to overcome a big day from Patrick Mahomes in his first career road playoff game."
