Now they are mentioning Fenton as someone they were missing, leading up to the game every Chief reporter I heard said he was the worst DB they have.

Really hope we see a lot more of Shakir moving forward.

Rumor is he had to leave UGA early due to poor grades. It was either move on to the draft or become academically ineligible.

Coupled with his reputation as being a dirty player, he should most certainly get a fine. No place in the game for this crap, people can get hurt doing it.

He is playing even better this year. It looks like he is playing more aggressive and tackling with more confidence. Maybe it’s just me.

All class by 17.

What do you mean by this?

The ref’s were terrible, bad calls and no calls for both teams.

Anyone else have a calmness about this game? I think some of it comes from winning at KC last year and then seeing how the rest of the season played out. Meaning this win didn’t guarantee the Bills the 1 seed or translate into a playoff win. I think some more comes from a place that I believe the Bills are the deeper more talented team. Either way, it’s a long season and I want them to win every game, but I also want the team to stay healthy. Ultimately I think this team is a SB winning team when (mostly) healthy. Go Bills!!

I had the exact same thought. I saw Efe Obada on the field in the third quarter. There were several players on last years D who were solid but not great. Feel like those have been replaced, while others have taken a step forward in their development.

Why? We are fans. We have the ability to look ahead and predict things…I am going to go out on a limb and say none of us on this board have any direct influence on the results of the game (no matter how superstitious we are).

During the draft it appears the Bills value o-linemen with high Relative Athletic Scores (RAS). These type of players are more appropriate for the pin and pull run game and good pass blockers. The Bills struggle trying to just blow teams off the LOS, they excel when they are out in space and using angles to wall off defenders. Nice write-up. Thanks.

I think the Chiefs are going to be plenty motivated for this game no matter what. They have last year's loss at home and the narrative that had Buffalo won the toss in the playoffs they would have won the game.

Milano was out that game. I wonder if that will lower Neal's snap count.

I’m hoping time together will produce a more cohesive front. IF they struggle against the Chiefs, I wonder if at the Bye they look at shuffling Bates to LG and maybe another option at RG and Saffold moves to BU.

The guards have faced better d-linemen than Jones already. The guards have been “ok” so far. Jones is a problem, but the bigger issue is the Chiefs appear to have solid d-line depth like Buffalo. Bills haven’t faced a team yet besides maybe Miami who have several capable d-linemen.

I don’t think so. The Raiders blocking scheme strength appears to be the weakness for the Bills. The Bills aren’t straight ahead power blockers, they rely more on pin and pull style. This is in large part to the Bills having good athletes along the oline who are agile and mobile. Hoping the Bills just do what they do, there isn’t a defensive scheme that can slow down this offense when they aren’t shooting themselves in the foot.

Like how much Von interacts with the entire team. Leader.

I wonder if some of that decision has to do with the style of defense a team plays. Say a team plays more of a "bend but don't break" style of D, the head coach might not view giving the opposing team the ball at midfield as that big of a deal. A HC may choose to bet his D can keep the opposing offense out of the end-zone.

I’m sure Beane did call Carolina after the HC gets fired to see if this signals players are available.

Makes me think of that Josh quote, “either you figure it out or you get figured out” (or something along those lines).

Non sense. This guy likes hearing himself talk. Josh hits McKenzie in the fourth quarter for that TD nobody bothers to click on this video.
