What separates the Chiefs from every other team…

Prudent play? He threw the ball to Kelce who was covered even more than Rice. Earlier, he threw a stupid ball which should have been intercepted and it was only fortune going his way it wasn't. The only TD he managed in regulation time was when the offense started in (or practically in) the red zone due to a lucky heel clip.

 

He's human. He's never going to be perfect. But he seems to be given carte blanche even on here for mistakes which Josh isn't. Perhaps that's what rings do for QBs.


Of course he isn’t perfect. No one is. But since ‘fortune going his way’ has led to 3 championships he’s going to get the benefit of the doubt like you said. Allen’s mistakes will be scrutinized more because they have prevented him and the Bills from winning it all. Allen can change all that by winning it all. Hopefully sooner than later.

He threw it where only Kelce could catch it. Very similar to the Kelce TD in the Championship game against Baltimore. Low risk high reward throw. The fg was in the bag  no need to jeopardize that by throwing it over the middle.

Where did all these antisocial trolls come from in the last 48 hours? 

 

Addressing the merits of the OP - What separates the Chiefs from the rest? Mahomes, Kelce, Chris Jones, and most of all, Andy Reid scheming guys wide open all over the field.  "Killer attitude" didn't get Mecole Hardman wide open by his lonesome for an easy pitch and catch.

And I have the same amount of Super Bowl rings as McDermott and Beane


Not trying to be. Just keep it real.

Yikes!! That could backfire…(NSFW!)

you seem like a pretty tough dude.

Nahh, he fits the profile of a conscientious objector to the T.  Total coward.  The real tough guys took a principled stand and boycotted the game entirely .

So the answer to what the Bills need to do is put even more on Josh? Don't try and improve the receivers? Don't try and tighten up the defense? Just pile more on the QB. Even though the most recent KC win shows victory goes deeper than one person.

The Chiefs do do some things that help them win, particularly in close, tense games.  But yelling at each other is not part of the winning formula.

 

What IS in the formula is applying pressure in key points at key locations, to get a critical edge when it matters.  Against the Bills AND the 49ers, Chris Jones was freed up to attack Allen and Purdy at a critical point near the end of the game. Both times he prevented the QB from hitting an open receiver and probably winning the game.  The Chiefs also put pressure on defenses through their attacking style, and that paralyzes the defenses from being able to attack the Chiefs' offense.  

 

It always turns into a lions vs gazelles situation, where the Chiefs' opponents always feel like they're going to get eaten, any moment now, and then it happens.  The way to beat the Chiefs is to avoid getting into a tight game where a key play here or there makes the difference.  The Bills and the 49ers both had chances to take big leads in the first half, but the Chiefs play an elastic game where even when their offense isn't doing much early in the game, and the other team is dominating, you look up at the scoreboard at the end of the half and you're only up by a few points.  At that point, the lions are coming out, and all the gazelles know it.

is Andy Reid

 

the temporarily uncrowned GOAT HC

 

But what did he do BEFORE he had Mahomes?! 

 

Top 10 on the all-time HC wins list, all-time winningest HC of the Eagles, took them to a Super Bowl and multiple NFC Title games, went to KC, won a bunch of games with Alex Smith and went to the playoffs regularly.

 

All before Mahomes played a down. 

 

Now let's do Belichick without Brady! 

 

Yes, BB has the rings advantage and more total wins. For now. He's done. Reid isn't.

Whoa buddy. Let’s lower that defensive meter. lol. When did I say any of that? Of course the Bills need to improve their roster to help out Allen. It’s a team game. Asking that Allen could improve on game awareness and decision making is not too much. That’s what separates the best of the best QBs and he is among the best.

Lotsa ( not so) closet Chiefs fans on this board. It’s gotten out of control now. 

 

 

The KC ball washing is getting too over-powering in here.

Right I’m not saying they never did it, but this whole lame “you need to be screaming at your teammates” thing to me is just stupid. Hold your teammates accountable, fire them up, but yelling just for the sake of yelling is dumb. We also don’t know what happens in meetings or on the practice field. But for some because they don’t see Josh yelling at his teammates on the sideline and embarrassing them that makes Josh a bad leader or doesn’t show heart or isn’t a competitor or whatever lame boring narrative they want to put out there. 

 

 

I would rather see a leader pacing the sidelines or talking with guys, then sitting on the bench by themselves with a glazed look in their eyes.

Bah. 

 

This season, the Chiefs were masters at taking advantage of mistakes made by their opponent. They weren't some invincible juggernaut. They are a beatable team. But you cannot make mistakes against them. Turn it over and give them extra chances and they're going to turn it into points. 

 

That's the one thing I noticed during their playoff run this season. Every team made costly mistakes against them and while they made some of their own, they were able to overcome. 

 

Can't turn it over, can't have drive killing penalties, can't miss on scoring opportunities.

The team has been to 4 of the last 5 Super Bowls and was a whisker away from being in 5 straight.  How should they be perceived?

They have earned it. They have a dynasty thing going now. I am hoping Harbaugh can now give them some serious competition within the division. Force KC to go the WC route and play on the road in the playoffs. Even though they won at Buffalo and Baltimore, teams would still have a better chance upsetting them in the playoffs if they can avoid Arrowhead.

It's not just 1 thing it's quite a few things, Stability at the coaching positions, Experience there too, Mahomes, Kelsey, & their years together, great D coordinator, HC & offensive mind, & some really good to great players on either side of the ball . 

 

There is no I in team it takes maybe not every player on the field but it takes most all of them .

What separates them? 
 

confidence in their offensive schemes and the guys that execute in the clutch better than everyone else, that’s what separates them,
