Every single team deals with injuries. It's a lame excuse. This is the last thing I'll say on the subject it's not a lame excuse They had four players on the injury report... Patrick mahomes who is 100% playing.. two backups and 1 starter and they played .. any injury that happened 8 weeks ago is irrelevant because they're professionals and adapt.. I never throw von Miller's injury into our injury discussion because we had eight weeks to adapt okay The bills didn't have their best safety.. and lost their best cornerback in the first half But we had 10 players on the injury report going into Arrowhead.. in a game of inches ... Played without two starters ... Six starters and two contributing backups on the injury report with fresh injuries from the last 10 days This is a game of inches and all of that happened and we lost by three... If we were healthy we're beating the Chiefs That doesn't even talk about the injury report two years ago I don't care if you don't believe me I am fully certain that the bills can and will win versus the Chiefs if healthy.. beating them five straight times in the regular season shows we can .. that's not a fluke Everybody says they have a better roster than us yet were barely losing while being hurt more ... Ravens had six all pros last year and we beat them in the playoffs Maybe McDermott's not that bad of a coach Edited 1 hour ago by Buffalo716 Quote

We allowed over 40 points at home to the Colts, over 250 yards rushing. We allowed 40+ to Chiefs in 13 seconds. This was never going to be some dominant playoff unit. No evidence to suggest that besides beating up on inexperienced QB’s. Edited 1 hour ago by Mikie2times 1 Quote

I'll grant you that year, that game, it was worse and we likely win if healthy. What about other years? The excuse game is lame. 1 Quote

No evidence to suggest that besides beating up on inexperienced QB’s. Philip Rivers is a tremendous quarterback and was doing basically what Daniel Jones was doing right now and look how good they are Patrick mahomes is obviously a beast Philip Rivers is way better than Daniel Jones and look what the colts are doing right now.. they have a really good offense in place Philip Rivers had a great offensive line and a running back with some weapons a better team than he had in 12 years in San Diego no matter what their record says And that was his last hurray Patrick mahomes is Patrick mahomes and can score 30 on any team just like Josh Allen... Gabe Davis looked like Jerry Rice versus the Chiefs secondary We had none of those big time weapons they had.. they had all pros we had stefon diggs who didn't show up big in the playoffs Edited 1 hour ago by Buffalo716 Quote

I don't think we have ever had a strong run defense in McDermott's term. Quote

That year we would consistently jump out to 14+ leads, then put offenses in pass only scripts with back up level QB’s and we just steam rolled people. Not exactly what we face when the stakes get higher. Quote
