It sucks that all those tickets were available on the secondary market and it kind of flies in the face of Buffalo being the little guy and speaks poorly on the fans selling for profit. Have to get used to it though because after next year it will be the norm in the new place when 50% of the fans will be visiting teams fans.

I assure you those guys I mentioned played against some great pass rushers. The edge rusher term really came from the amount of teams playing multiple fronts on defense....is he a 4-3 end or a 3-4 OLB.....turned into Edge or Edge rusher. Taylor is the greatest to ever rush the paser but there were a lot of guys who were great at it in the 80s and 90s the era of the guys I posted. Jacoby for instance played his entire career blocking LT twice a year and then a few times again in the playoffs. Bubba paris had to play against all the greats with the niners winning so many titles and being in the playoffs every year but in the regular season he had to play rickey jackson and pat swilling twice a year and kevin greene once he showed up in LA. I could go on about pass rushers in the 80's most of whom played olb in a 34 front and some who were the exact size of todays tweeners who played in a 4-3. Mark Gastineau, Charles Mann, Charles Haley, Richard Dent, Clay Matthews, LT, Pat Swilling, Rickey Jackson, Karl Mecklenburg, Kevn Greene etc.

McDermott told Sal Not Playing, Keon, Kincaid, Milano. spencer and cooper are limited and questionable. Long term for kincaid? He is week to week. They will know more about Spencer today and he is day to day.

It's broken down in sections with spacing. Not sure what is hard to read about this. I am just pointing out the historical aspects of the matchup. All of those superbowl winning teams changed too.

what I am saying is this is an important game. Historically the team that wins this one has won the rematch in the playoffs. Not really that hard like say three peating. why is reading hard? I put it pretty simply with the history. This is a historical matchup and the history says there is a good chance they see each other again and the team that won the regular season then won the post season matchup. also, none of the teams trying for a 3peat have ever won more than ten games in a row so KC is really on the verge of making history here.

Of course its small. Only a handful of teams have gone back to back and only 5 of those teams made the playoffs. I think its interesting 4 of those 5 teams played in the regular season. 3 of them lost both matchups and both on the road.

what is "Eric Wood red nose poem" never heard of it.

an additional note, none of the teams trying for a three peat ever had a winning streak longer than 10. The 1994 SF 49ers had a 10 game win streak before losing week 16. The 1990 SF 49ers started 10-0 before losing week 12 to the Rams. The 1976 Pittsburgh steelers finished the season with a 9 game winning streak then won the AFC divisional playoff game before losing. So the chiefs will be making all kinds of history if this continues.

So of the Back to Back Super Bowl Champions in history FIVE made the playoffs the following season, FOUR played teams in the playoffs that they played during the regular season. THREE of those teams lost both the regular season matchup and then the rematch in the playoffs. SF in 1990 won the regular season game and then lost the playoff game. Only Miami in 1974 lost to an opponent they were playing for the first time that season (Oakland). Here are the back to back super bowl champs in the history of the NFL and how their three peat season ended. KC 2022-2023? NE 03-04 Denver 97-98 SF 88-89 Dallas 92-93 Pittsburgh 78-79 Pittsburgh 74-75 Miami 72-73 GB 66-67 This is how the teams playing for their third straight finished their season. NE 05 Lost at Denver Divisional Round 27-13 Denver 99 6-10 missed playoff (Elway Retired) Dallas 94 lost at SF NFC Championship Game 38-28 (Jimmy Johnson Quit) SF 90 Lost at home in the NFC Championship game to NY 15-13 (Montana Knocked Out) Pittsburgh 80 9-7 missed playoff for the first time since 1971 Pittsburgh 76 Lost at Oakland AFC Championship Game 24-7 (Franco Harris and Rocky Bleier did not play after being injured the week before at Baltimore) Miami 74 lost at Oakland in the divisional playoffs 28-26 (Sea of Hands Game) GB 68 Missed playoffs at 6-7-1 (Vince Lombardi stepped down as head coach before season and only made the playoffs two more times until 1992) In 2005 New England played at Denver (October 16th) and lost 28-20, later they lost 27-13 in the divisional round. In 1994 Dallas played at San Francisco (November 13th) and lost 21-14, later they lost 38-28 in the nfc championship game. In 1990 San Francisco hosted NY for MNF winning 7-3, (December3rd, Both teams 10-1) later they lost 15-13 at home to NY in the NFC Championship Game. In 1976 Pittsburgh played at Oakland (September 12th) and lost 31-28, later they lost 24-7 at Oakland in the AFC Championship game. In 1974 Miami lost to Oakland in the divisional round but did not play in the regular season. So history tells us there is a good chance KC and Buffalo will meet again in the playoffs. History also thinks the winner will win the second matchup. Within each of those matchups there is some sort of monumental history with the game or the teams themselves. Elway retiring, Montana getting knocked out, Franco Harris_Rocky Bleier being injured, the sea of hands game etc. Sunday is going to be a great day. I hope we all can enjoy it! History says it's an important game.

All those 80s 90s guys were pretty amazing. Munoz, joe Jacoby, Bubba Paris, Jumbo Elliot, jackie slater. Loved those redskins lines.

Everyone involved with the 90s Green Bay Packers suck. The exception I think is Holmgren. He seems decent. The rest suck the big one and we had to watch the nfl for over a decade while these morons kept getting jobs as coaches and the players kept getting arrested etc. also isn't everyone in florida a swinger? The whole place is as gross as the 90s packers.

Anyway, I wonder how his guitar lessons are going with Jon Bon Jovi. He must be able to play wanted dead or alive by now.

Even a thread about barstool and idiot gruden turns into hey Allen isn't really that good guys. Everyday here. Just amazing

So what? Didn't the chiefs lose to basically every good team they played last year and then went and won 3 games in a row and were champions? This honestly the most foolish argument that exists among the fandom right now. The history of the league is littered with teams who beat up on bad teams then won super bowls or went deep into the playoffs.

That's a GIF sir and a great one from this past sunday I might add.

You can't compare anything the Broncos did vs the chiefs to what it will happen sunday. They are polar opposites defensively. Maybe the Bills will steal something denver did on a third down or something sunday but generally Denvers defense kept them on their heels. Buffalo can not do that.

From listening to Buffalo plus this morning and WGR on and off throughout the day apparently the talking point of the day is Allen is struggling and doesn't look like himself and Dalton Kincaid is a JAG who does nothing to help the team. Pretty absurd takes. But hey I guess there isn't much to talk about this week.

I don't have any problem with it. I will say though the guy who made the statement didn't like people pointing out the reality of his accomplishments. He seemed pretty salty with the media the week of the playoff game in Buffalo last year and after the game. Didn't seem to like the question/thought from the media about why they haven't won a playoff game in so long and whether or not he would be back as the coach. So while he is laughing today if it goes sour for him and people say similar things about him and the steelers I hope he keeps that sense of humor.

This could be a situation where they can not find a fit in the new defense (that they signed him to somehow) and are just cutting him so they do not have to pay his incentives going forward. He has some he is about to hit and they probably do not want to pay that. Very odd. https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/seahawks/seahawks-release-starter-complete-shake-up-of-inside-linebacking-corps/ Dodson was due to make $2.25 million in base salary this year, and the Seahawks will get out of the rest of that as his salary if he is claimed off waivers was not guaranteed. Dodson was also due $30,000 each game in per-game roster bonuses. Dodson was also released within reach of some incentives, including $300,000 if he recorded at least three sacks this season. He had two. He also had up to $500,000 in incentives for overall playing time, earning the whole amount if he played at least 65% of the team’s snaps in 2024. The only guaranteed money in Dodson’s deal was a $1 million signing bonus. this is also interesting...whether its regression or a bad fit I don't know. Dodson, who had played 604 snaps, the most on defense, had a 65.8 grade from Pro Football Focus, down from the 90.2 he had last year with the Bills when he finished with the highest grade of any linebacker in the NFL. He had a 52.0 run defense grade, down from 82.6 with the Bills. Dodson, 26, will now be eligible for any team to claim off of waivers.

Uh What? They are the number 3 scoring offense. Only Baltimore and Detroit have scored more TD's. Allen is like top 10 or better in every passing category. They are top 5 in rushing TD's. They are 11/12 on 4th downs. The one stat offensively I would like to see them improve is in Time of Posession, they are down 3 minutes from last years team so far this year and are currently ranked 19th in the league. Would love to see that up around 34 minutes. KC is currently at 32:43 a game.

Did you call WGR this morning and argue with Sal by any chance? if so that was entertaining and all I could think was this guy on the air must post here since he is obsessed with WR.

A big part of that is always rushing four. When you play this style of defense you are not going to get a ton of holding calls when your ends are just average players. The broncos played downhill and came after mahomes all day yesterday and it worked. This weeks game will be totally different. Mahomes will have all day to throw and buffalo is going to have to be near perfect on third downs.

Downtrodden? Detroit is a pretty great city.

Still bugs me that the idiot qb in kc ran around the bills visiting locker room last year saying they wanted it and they got it. Can’t stand him or stupid Andy Reid. really hoping they find a way this week. just like yesterday the conference wins are going to be huge at the end of the year because kc Buffalo and Baltimore have all played each other. Same with Houston so conference record is going to break some ties. this is a huge game because they should win the rest of their afc games. So their conference record is going to be important.
