Game week thread - Chiefs at Bills (Video preview on pg. 19)

[zow2]

Taron burnt toast Johnson may not play.  I think I'd rather see Cam this week.

Can we please get Gore up? All he’s ever done is flash. He’s a good football player. Don’t overthink it. Davis looks terrible

Typically if Taron would be out, I'd be excited bto see more Shaq Thompson and traditional 4-3 sets. With Shaq out....cripes. Lots of Cam Lewis. Hopefully, we see more Max than Tre on the outside.

Been calling for that. One issue is that we have had to call up a DT or two and/or a S almost every week. 

[Success]

Health has been a real issue for our secondary this year.

 

[SCBills]

Honestly, might be time to give Cam Lewis a chance anyway. 
 

Taron has been rough this year.

What in the hell are we doing in practice/warmups that everyone gets hurt? I mean Taron is toast but we got some bodies made of glass here

I have noticed you are a big Gore fan.
 

Maybe I need to give him a closer look.

 

In his first preseason with us, I thought he looked like a slow plodder— I wanted to keep that Darrynton Evans over him.

Am I the only one who finds this team exhausting to watch right now, I used to enjoy getting the updates from each practice but now it's one thing after another.

 

Taron getting injured on a Friday, we can't even get through a week with someone going down.

Rapp out, but honestly maybe a good thing so he doesn't destroy one of our own. Beane treating Wr

and Safety like all is good.

Can Mcd even motivate these guys anymore?

 

I have no nerves for any games either this year- I kinda feel like Josh may go off this week and do something special, or maybe we get our butts handed to us because that is the team we got.

 

It's been a Frustrating Year!

I don’t think this is either good or bad. The Chiefs have trotted out some pretty bad players on the left side of their line this season.

Very frustrating. The mojo this year does not feel good.

the chiefs have literally a turnstile at left tackle if moore is out. would be their third string guy. that would be a five-alarm fire. 

[transplantbillsfan]

So I know traditionally Tre hasn't been a good tackler, but that seems flipped on its head this year.  He seems like a pretty sure tackler, but not good in coverage on the outside due to his deteriorating athletic ability.

 

With Taron potentially out of the game, would Tre be an option at slot CB?

I relate to this, but I've really tried to re-set.  We had an incredibly long drought where a season like this - where we are still considered one of the top contenders for a title - would have been the stuff of wild, irrational daydreams.

 

A big part of enjoying any sport is setting expectations aside and just being in the moment.  We have the marquee game on Sunday, it has big implications for the AFC's 1 seed, and we still get to watch Josh Allen play football every week.

Agree with all of what you just said. I am probably bad for my expectations for this season from the start.

 

Sometimes I think it's going to happen for us in the year we least expect it. 

 

I am excited for Sunday, I was at the Chiefs game last year with my Family and it was one of the best times of our lives. We will never forget Josh barreling in for that rushing TD. 

 

Let's hope to see some more memories made this weekend!

I think Gore has been the best player on the field for most of our pre seasons that he’s been around. I see what you are saying I just can’t disagree more. I don’t even think there is a way you could watch them and think that.
 

Also a closer look and fun fact. I was the biggest Frank Gore sr hater on the board. I spent the entire season furious about our gameday inactives. Not dressing yeldon and dressing the completey finished Frank Gore sr was making me sick. I probably had 30 posts about it. Now the ultimate irony…we got the good gore and the guy can’t get a helmet

The Bills are just going to have to step up and meet the moment. They can absolutely win this game, even easily... But they are going to have to play 60 minutes like the 4th quarter vs the Ravens, the 1st half vs the Jets, the 2nd-3rd quarters vs the Panthers... They are going to have to put together a full game of those-type efforts... It's within the realm of possibility... they just have to do it.

I've heard that a lot this year, and even thought it myself a couple times but film review has consistently shown him playing pretty well this year.

It depends how his lateral quickness is now .. the bills would have a better idea of that than us 

 

But , tarons role is almost a 3rd linebacker sometimes... Idk if tre can hold up to that

This other guy saying Gore looked like a slow plodder!?? He is quick and fiery never looked slow at all.
