Opinion: Bills at Chiefs: Sal’s keys, notes and stats

‘When the two teams played back in Week 6, the Bills didn’t blitz a single snap on defense. Their focus on the Chiefs’ passing game led to Kansas City rushing for 245 yards. But it wasn’t just that the Bills didn’t blitz, they were passive all night and never really attacked. Linebackers were too stationary or dropped back too much and often, and looked like they were just waiting for the play to come to them instead of attacking the offense like we’ve seen most of the last couple months. That can’t happen again this weekend. Of course the primary focus should still be on stopping the Chiefs’ passing game, but they’ll have to find a way to do that while also making sure they don’t allow that big rushing game. Also, with Patrick Mahomes’ playing on an injured toe, the Bills should want to test to see how well he can move in, around, and out of the pocket, which means even more aggressiveness and some blitzing.’

WKBW sports staff predicts AFC Championship Game between Bills and Chiefs

‘Buffalo has to limit explosive plays for Kansas City. They did a good job of that back in October, but the running game, chunk plays, and an offense that stalled all hindered the Bills. Buffalo needs December-level football to win this one, and they need a game where Josh Allen blows the doors off. And I think they get just that.’

‘“At the time like everybody else we didn’t know how this thing was gonna go or how this COVID thing was gonna shake out. Just me losing somebody in my family that’s close, obviously it gets you thinking about things and gets you thinking about things more than football, just the bigger picture of life and yourself and your family and the people that you love,” White said.’

Thomas emptied the tank in fourth title game win

‘The 186 rushing yards remain a record for an AFC title game. It wasn’t a surprise for Thurman to rise up. In the Bills’ four consecutive title game wins, he had a combined 696 scrimmage yards. That’s an average of 174 yards a game — even better than his average when he led the NFL in scrimmage yards four years in a row in his prime.’

‘“The staff themselves you know on those game days, it’s been crazy. You know we’ve had a slow build ever since the primetime game started where it’s Super Bowl sales on those days. the staff honestly willing to work, they want to be there. Everybody has a good time. we got to pause a little bit, watch a big play, and come back to the orders right and take care of everybody.”’
