     I don't think it is ever as simple as dropping 8 into coverage and you can stop Mahomes.  There are a lot of nuances and changing things up and most importantly, whatever you do you need the players to do their job.  

    It’s really mixing in single high looks with a robber that gave mahomes fits in the bengals playoff game…not sure if they did the same this game I was watching Miami mostly.  
     

    the tyreek hill loss was massive for the chiefs and nobody else has really stepped up yet.  Teams aren’t as concerned with mixing in some man against the chiefs anymore.  I don’t think Andy Reid has a lot of confidence in their ability to run the football either.

    Really hope Dawkins is back for this one. The Jets front 4 is solid as they can get pressure without blitzing. The Bills OL vs the Jets DL is the key matchup IMHO. If the Bills do well here then Allen will make plays to get us the win

    They’ve got a better front 4 than the pats but I think 4 quarters against the pats in NE with quessenberry getting hurt early and clearly playing very injured was a worse situation than we’ll see this week. 
     

    at least you get a week to gameplan around whos gonna be healthy.  Quess could hardly even get in guys way in that NE game

    Last couple games it finally seems like the refs are calling PI/Holding on Sauce Gardner. I’ve never seen a rookie get so much preferential treatment from the refs. This guy physically assaults receivers on the regular and has been getting away with it from the beginning. In the last couple games it seems like they’ve been flagging him and Lo and Behold! , he starts giving up catches. Funny how that works. WIll be interesting to see if the trend continues.

    Wonder how he’d be viewed if gabe didn’t drop that likely game winner (at worst game tie-er 😂) last meeting

    White made some tough throws last week. Some tight window stuff downfield. His WRs were making tough contested catches too

     

    I came away impressed, having not watched him since last year. That being said, a lot of those throws were into coverage and it doesn;t take much to have those go the other way.

    They’re pretty much the patriots on the offensive side assuming mike white is nothing more or less than ok…better defense though. 
    they would’ve struggled mightily on offense if we had the same lineup available for the last meeting.

    Patrick Mahomes +125
    Jalen Hurts +150
    Joe Burrow +800
    Josh Allen +1100
    Tua Tagovailoa +1400
    Geno Smith +6000
    Tyreek Hill +7500
    Dak Prescott +10000
    Kirk Cousins +10000

     

    Mahomes still clinging to the lead, Hurts right on his heels.

    Burrow/Allen at +800/+1100 are intriguing value bets.  Mahomes and the chiefs have the broncos twice who have a good defense and the raiders once who always play them tough.  
     

    hurts could be sitting out week 17 the way things are going but there’s no chance Allen/burrow/mahomes will be doing that

    The Bengals have a good shot at the 1 seed if they win out as well.  It's not just a two-team race

     

    As for the spread being high, considering that it was 10.5 at the Jets and now the game is in Buffalo, the oddsmakers have already made a big adjustment.  I certainly wouldn't run to bet the Jets at 9.5 in Buffalo.

    I really wouldn’t either…I think as a message board we’ve fallen into the same trap as the pats game lol. We are giving the opponents the appropriate credit but vastly underrating our own team.  I don’t think our defense is far behind the jets with edmunds,poyer, and tre white playing and we have a much better offense

    Thank you, I’ve been trying to say our fans overrate so many of our players. I like our guys but we have very few elite guys, like top 10 guys at their position. Probably just josh, Diggs, Poyer, and maybe Von. Milano maybe too. Not sure if Tre is or not anymore. Yes, the eagles line is WAY better than ours. That’s the bigggest issue I have. We are severely lacking in the trenches. Especially the OL. Our lack of pass rush depth is going to hurt us until von comes back too. Might be ok against Mike white, Tua, Mac, and Justin Fields but Burrow is going to murder us with those weapons.,

    Milano was playing absolutely out of his mind until the Detroit game. Rousseau is having a great season too 

     

    if tre white is a similar level to years past were talkin 5 potential elite players on defense

    I feel like Tua gets hurt in every big game he plays?

    He does seem to miss some/the entire game against the better defenses.  Missed half the bengals game and the jets game this year   
     

    missed 90% of the bills game, bucs game, colts game last season.  Seems to always be healthy when they play the leagues worst teams though lol 

     

    he’s played one above average quarter against a playoff caliber team all season…of course it was way above average though 😁

    I would love to have a stud WR opposite Diggs, but I just don’t see it being OBJ.  Yeah he talks a big game, wants another ring, blah blah blah… but at the end of the day, it’s coming down to the money. I just don’t see Beane getting into a bidding war on OBJ. 
     

    Fingers crossed, but expectations low.

    It’s gonna be something interesting from a contract standpoint that he ends up getting from someone (don’t know if it’ll be us). He’ll probably be getting paid almost nothing this season even factoring in that it’s prorated.

    Tre is absolutely a top 3 CB before his injury. Surtain is having a great year but who knows if he'll be consistent. Xavien Howard is up there. Ramsey, Alexander, and Slay all come after Tre in my opinion. 

     

    We got a ton of pressure on Mac without Von. And we are excellent against the run this year. 

     

    You didn't address any of the other positions I mentioned and you vastly overrated the 49ers WR position. When it comes down to it, QB is still the most important part of the equation. We have equal talent to the 49ers throughout the rest of the roster, but we have a massive advantage where it matters most.

    Don’t know if it’s all injury related but Xavien Howard has been bad all year long.  It’s a pretty big reason why their defense has struggled.  
     

    flores certainly ran the offense straight into the ground but I think he was getting a lot more out of his defensive players than McDaniel is

    Yea bills pass D really

    came to play against Zach Wilson and Kirk ……. Eye roll. They can get boat raced too 

    No Von almost evens it out . I have zero assurances 

    We were missing Rousseau last meeting I’m pretty sure and had von now it has flipped.  Rousseau has been an animal this season also.  Absolutely not even close to evening out adding a pro bowl caliber safety,cornerback, and linebacker and swapping von for Rousseau 

     

    edit:Rousseau got hurt in the first half vs the jets

    Jets and Vikings targeted dodson/Bernard all game long (all second half in the Vikings case because edmunds played a half).  They will not have that luxury this time.  Absolutely zero chance the jets ‘boat race’ them.

    That number seems high. Jets are real. They’re young, fiery, and ultra competitive. Bills have to control the lines of scrimmage to allow their skill positions to exploit the youth and bravado. Dawkins’s availability is crucial.

     

    Bills -3.5

    jets offense isn’t getting much respect and frankly it doesn’t really deserve any yet.  If we had the roster we are rolling into this rematch with available in the first matchup the jets would not have cracked double digits.  It’s pretty easy to cover 9.5 when your opponent isn’t scoring many points 

     

    were up three pro bowl caliber players all on defense  compared to the last meeting

     His history against the Bills would say different. The defense they have is for real though. 

    That’s def true… we’re a much better pass defense than Minnesota and Chicago assuming poyer and edmunds are playing and now we’ve got white probably playing 100% of the snaps.  The jets won’t have a scrub linebacker to pick on this matchup or Dane Jackson stuck covering a wr1 all game 

  15. The most surprising thing to me is the bengals and bills played far from a perfect game in their wins over the chiefs this season.  Bengals got stopped on that 4th and short and dropped a wide open td.  
     

    Isaiah McKenzie tried his hardest to lose the bills the game against the chiefs too lol 

     

    those were very much not ‘the team playing the chiefs pulled out all the stops and snuck by them’ type wins

    The bills have beat the 2 3 and 4 seeds.  The bills also have to play the current 5,6,7, and 8 seeds.  They probably need to win out to maintain the one seed and that is no easy task.  

    Pretty decent shot kc loses one more too.  The raiders always play them tough and they could be fightin for a playoff spot in week 17.  Seattle isn’t terrible either

    Not easy whatsoever.

     

    Really hoping Chiefs somehow lose another game. And maybe Miami loses two more games.

     

    It would allow us to not have to be perfect.

     

    I don't think the Jets are a threat to win the division anymore.

    If Miami doesn’t get armstead back soon I think they’re gonna finish a win behind us even if they sweep us.  GB and LAC become pretty bad matchups for them if that’s the case
