    Bills totally destroyed the Chiefs. Now sadly they aren’t that good so far this year sitting at 2-3 and in last place in their division.  Now Buffalo is the big bad and the young upstart IMO is the Chargers. Matter fact if I had to pick an AFC Championship game that would be it right now. 

    Chiefs will be back they've had some flukey losses...lost the turnover margin by 5 against the chargers and almost pulled the game out...they've played 4 great teams so far.  I bet they stack up some wins going forward and make the playoffs pretty comfortably...its nice they likely won't have home field though

    I think this attitude of not being intimidated going up against ANY team really goes back to the second half of last season - maybe even earlier.  Bills have the weapons to compete with anybody now.  Glad to see that mentality has transferred into this season as well!

    Also really impressed with Spencer Brown's physicality.  He's a guy who brings some attitude - which is awesome to see in a rookie!

    I was going to say the same thing...it was essentially the same defensive gameplan as the last two matchups against kc but people thought we were playing soft then lol now that the execution was better we are fearless for doing the same thing 🤣

    FTFY.

    Their defensive backs still get away with murder apparently...i don't want to be one of those conspiracy theory people but I think their ragtag defense wouldve gotten smoked every week for the last 2 years if the refs were a little closer to the rulebook definition of a hold lol and that would certainly hurt the patrick mahomes brand by association.  it does seem like we learned and made a more concerted effort to hold also but we went a bit overboard at times lol

    I'll say this.  I've had my stretches, as a fan, of blaming the refs.  But those were usually in the stretches when we had a mediocre team and a couple of calls against us could deflate us and we'd lose.

     

    I had my epiphany watching the Eagles defeat the Patriots**** in the Superbowl.  Whatever happened, whatever wierd calls there were, they just kind of rolled their eyes and kept going hard, and they won.

     

    So if the Chiefs are doing the "we lost due to those horrible calls, Boo Hoo" thing, what does that say for where they're at as a team?

    I dont understand how they can even claim that...there were as many garbage calls on us or more.  Both teams had a very ticky tacky roughing the passer call...there was that terrible holding call on Morse that might have legitimately been the worst holding call I've ever seen...diggs got held by some scrub defensive back all game long and it was never called and despite all that if they didn't call that roughing the passer against the chiefs they get the ball on their own 40 down 11 with 11 minutes left? That isn't exactly in danger of winning the game lol I think these chiefs fans just fell for collingsworths BS of trying to make the game sound more exciting than it was...they got absolutely walloped.  I like to think when we complain about the refs it's about a single call that completely altered the game like when white got called for that nonsense hold on his week 1 interception

    I took a peek at a couple Titans forums, and they seem down on their chances in general.  The homers who actually believe they will win seem to be basing their opinion on the exact same tired "yeah but they lost to the Steelers and only beat bad teams" nonsense we've been dealing with for weeks.

    That logic always blows my mind lol it's early in the season so beating a team once has a huge impact on their record haha

    The Bills stopped the Bills more than the Chiefs did. Outside of the Pittsburgh game that has been the story any time we don't move the ball this year.

     

    I thought Daboll was way too predictable in the 3rd quarter. I said in the game thread that I hope he is actually offered a head coaching job this offseason. Admittedly I was in an emotional state at that point, but I'm not entirely backing off. The offense has too much talent to stall out against a bad defense like that. Luckily Allen decided to take the game over because there was a moment there where I wondered if the offense was going to choke away an outstanding defensive performance. And it's hard to blame the execution on those drives. KC was just sniffing out our plays.

     

    Daboll needs to take RB screen passes out of the play book. It is bad execution across the board every time. If he wants to sprinkle in some flare passes or WR screens, fine. Just please stop trying RB screens. It is a waste of a down.

    Chiefs dbs are just so good at holding and it not being called lol unfortunately I think we have to work on that.  diggs got held on that 3rd and 2 drop to start the second half and quite a few other plays.  We were probably a bit too predictable in the second half trying to run out the clock but the game really was never close despite cris collingsworth trying to claim the chiefs had all the momentum until the roughing the passer call we got or whatever nonsense he said

    I thought I read on this board that Jackson wasn't a good throwing QB.  37/43 442 yards and 4 TD.  

    I think the Colts entire secondary literally got injured and it was all practice squad level guys...lamar made some nice throws though

    This is another test for the Bills defense. Last year we struggled against multidimensional offenses. Titans have 3 elite talents catching and running the ball, and a QB just good enough to spread it around. If Jones and Brown both play their offense may be scarier than the Chiefs.

    The two elite wrs seem to be stepping on eachothers toes. They have been worse than the sum of their parts

    In today's press conference, Saleh compared Wilson's first 5 starts to Josh's and said Wilson would be fine. Whether Wilson will be fine is still up in the air but comparing to Josh's early career stats could be misleading considering Josh was very raw and his development path is more of an outlier.

     

     

    He also conveniently left out rushing yards and W/L record...the Bills that year certainly weren't any better than the jets.  Josh allen averaged more rushing yards per game in his first few starts than Wilson has total for the season so far

    Honestly, many of those clips were in the Kingdome with a luxuriously comfy pocket.

     

    If Allen threw those rainbows in our Highmark we would be screaming about the balls dying midair and getting picked off. Kelly often mentioned that there is a specific way he had to throw the ball in the Ralph to cut through and under the wind on longer throws.

     

    Going to be hard comparing apples to oranges, but I just don't think he would be very successful throwing those rainbows in our windy stadium most days. That being said Russel is an awesome QB who has put up really good numbers over the years in regards to completion rate and average yards per attempt and not a bad bar for Allen to aim towards. 

     

     

     

     

     

    Came here to say exactly this lol I think he's throwing deep ball ropes by design to minimize the wind impact.

    Titans will be a harder game than the 32nd ranked defense I think. 

    The 32nd ranked defense we just played might be one of the best offenses of all time though lol do people think offense is the only unit that matters on the bills 🤣

    Just like any other QB, if you rattle them or get in their head it effects them visibly on the field. I can't remember ever seeing him throw that many passes in the dirt tbh. Even though the pass rush wasn't getting sack after sack, the pressure was enough to make him uncomfortable and every chance our guys had they laid a hit on him. He was clearly out of sorts. 

    Right...it's exactly what happened to Josh week one you just don't see it happen to mahomes that often...theres not a whole lot you can do when your oline can't block 4 guys when everyone else is in coverage...not being able to trust those guys up front makes even a great qb very uncomfortable

    I still think he's the best QB in the NFL, but guys like Allen, Murray, Herbert, etc are closing the gap quickly.

     

    What is happening with the Chiefs this year so far should be a cautionary tale for the Bills in terms of what too expect a few years down the road (i.e. attrition of talent because of top heavy investments on star players).

    I'm curious what happens to mahomes when kelce retires

    Collinsworth also called Josh Allen mediocre in his first 2 seasons.  Inconsistent, jumpy, exciteable, sure, but he has never been mediocre while in a Buffalo uniform

     

    That grinds my gears more than people saying he's not elite now 🤣 that bills team joshs rookie year had zero playmakers on offense besides josh and he straight up carried the team to a .500 record in his starts...people just look at the td/int ratio and completion percentage and assume he was bad it's super lazy analysis.  We had no running game other than Josh and our wrs could not get open and if somehow they were open they'd drop the pass half the time lol

    I don’t mean to be critical after a win, but the chiefs seem to really confuse the Bills’ offense over these last 3 meetings. We got them on some big plays last night, but the offense seemed out of rhythm all night. 
     

    Coming into the game, we heard that their Run D was terrible And that they give up a lot of passing in the intermediate area. But the Bills didn’t run the ball great, and didn’t find success in the intermediate area. Diggs and Beasley were non-factors outside of the Diggs bomb. 
     

    This isn’t meant to be critical of the O— but my question is what exactly were the chiefs doing on D? (Eg, what coverages, how are they confusing us and stopping our receivers)? 

    Chiefs still get away with holding with their dbs every single play I think we wised up and did it too last night though 🤣 we had a few absolutely terrible holds/ dpis that had to get called but other than that they let those guys play.  They'd probably give up 100 ppg otherwise lol

    Doesn't matter, they didn't have Chris Jones.  Game doesn't count.  

     

    -Collinsworth, probably

     

    Jones, Ward... whatever, it doesn't matter.  Their defensive issues go far beyond that, and our OL looks much improved with this new lineup. 

     

    We didn't have milano was that even mentioned lol

    His absence wasn't the reason we lost to Pittsburgh, but he's been really good.

     

    He's always been an excellent space eater / block absorber and hole clogger. Always. And that continues. He was also always weirdly good at running laterally when he got off blocks and chased guys outwards. He continues to do these both very well.

     

    But he's gotten a lot better at rushing the passer. It's great to see.

     

    He was greatly missed in 2020. The 2019 and 2021 defenses were absolutely excellent, and his presence is a real part of that.

     

    His presence makes the players around him significantly better.

     

     

     

    No, it really wasn't. The last half of the year they were very solid. Not as good as they are this year with Star, though.

     

     

    against average teams maybe....the colts and chiefs did absolutely whatever they wanted to us in the playoffs...if Josh didnt carry us we wouldve gotten bounced in the first round.  gotta tip my cap to the gameplan against lamar though our defense gave him fits both times.

  16. 23 hours ago, FilthyBeast said:

     

    They should be confident especially since we lost to the only legit NFL QB we've played so far this year and that team hasn't won a game since or even been competitive in the 2nd half of games so far.

     

    Obviously the Pittsburgh game looks like a true week one anomaly but the Chiefs are a few plays away from being 4-0 despite having an atrocious defense so far.

     

    They are going to come out aggressive on both sides of the ball and look to bury the Bills early especially since Andy Reid is inside McDermott's head and the Chiefs defense inside Allen's until something changes.

    Why is everyone sleeping on heinicke lol...is it because he's not some 22 year old rookie? He's honestly been good to great his whole career and they might look at him as the long term option. He's much better than Roethlisberger is at this point in his career. The chiefs defense isn't inside Allen's head...no one could get open last year because our receivers were all horrifically injured 🤣...not to mention they got away with a boatload of holds.  I think if we were a little healthier we wouldve lost that game in a close shootout.  And this year with our defense playing better we've got a good chance

    didn't catch you on the national narrative thing....got it

     

    the rest I stand by 100% :) - Beat KC and nothing else matters. Don't worry though, in this case there's pretty much no way they can win unless he plays really well, so we won't have to worry about this Miami game comparison.

    Also he is much more likely to play well though because they have one of the least talented defenses we'll see all year.  Frank Clark is their whole defense and he is banged up

    I actually see lots of fans on this board talking about the strengths of the chiefs and how difficult this game will be. 

    Yea id say we're being quite complimentary of the chiefs haha I think theyre borderline unstoppable up until the redzone where being able to stretch the field vertically isn't as important and that's where we'll have to make some stops...which is why you see teams defending them the way we tried in the afccg. Letting tyreek Hill beat you deep is just gift wrapping them points

    That’s the problem and opposing teams know it. Josh likes to push the ball downfield. Even he said sometimes he has to go bottom to top instead of top to bottom.

    I do think a lot of this had to do with having 0 trust in his defense...kc did absolutely whatever they wanted both games whether it was rushing or passing.  To be fair to Josh he won the Colts game single handedly playing that way lol so it's not always all bad.  I have a feeling he's gonna have more faith in the defense this year and we can play a little more field position provided we get some red zone stops.  Not to mention our receivers are much healthier this year compared to the playoff game ...beasley had a broken leg diggs had a torn oblique and Davis had an ankle injury I think

    or just win against Bills overall ... look at Steelers season after they whooped us.

    Happened to the cardinals after the hail Mary too lol

    Bosa can wreck a gameplan all by himself. They have size at the WR position too.  Hopefully they slog it out with Cleveland or Baltimore in WC round 

    Yea thankfully we don't have to play ALL the good teams in the playoffs lol a bye would be enormous and we have a lot of near layup division games so I'd say we have the inside track if we can get the w this week
