'The Bills didn’t lose because of poor or uninspired effort. They lost because they weren’t good enough in any respect, coaching or playing, to meet the challenge of winning a game with so much on the line. They lost because, defensively, they couldn’t handle the frustrating style of play that the Chiefs employ with a super-intelligent quarterback (Alex Smith) who is an exceptional game manager and an extremely dangerous runner, and a scheme that generally causes death by a million paper cuts. They lost because, offensively, they couldn’t sustain tremendous first-half momentum. They lost because coach Rex Ryan didn’t know when or when not to challenge plays. They lost because they were out-coached on both sides of the ball.'
