The playoffs are about these next four games. If we really have improved our run defense and hold the Chiefs to under 70 yards we can beat the Chiefs. I'm not afraid of their WR. Charles though is probably the best RB in the league.

 

One thing I really have been impressed is not necessarily our front four, but it's the depth on the D Line. Our relievers are good. It's so fun watching them just hammer offenses and keep opposing RB's to net losses in yards. It will be fun to watch Spikes vs. Charles.

Agree completely.

Teams try to run when they see Wynn in but he is very strong "weak link" that makes plays.

 

This game is a contenders/pretenders game. If the Bills are actually making a playoff run it starts with a win at Home against a 2013 contender.

Here's how Chiefs fit into playoff picture: READ MORE

By Adam Teicher - ESPN.com

 

“With the season halfway finished and the Kansas City Chiefs squarely in the middle of the postseason race, we’re going to start a weekly look at the AFC playoff picture.

 

Where the Chiefs stand: They are 5-3 and in second place in the AFC West, one game behind the 6-2 Denver Broncos. They are tied with three other teams (Buffalo, Cleveland and Miami) for the final wild card spot. The other division leaders are New England (7-2), Cincinnati (5-2-1) and Indianapolis (5-3). Pittsburgh (6-3) leads the wild-card race. ”

 

At the midway point, is the '14 Chiefs' 5-3 more impressive than last year's 8-0?: READ MORE

By Sean Keeler - Fox Sports Kansas City

 

“ You can judge a man by the quality of his enemies, should we judge teams by the quality of the quarterbacks they've clobbered? Take last year's first-half-of-the-season hit list for the Kansas City Chiefs: Blaine Gabbert. Tony Romo. Michael Vick.Eli Manning.Ryan Fitzpatrick. Terrelle Pryor.Case Keenum. Jason Campbell. Average career NFL starts: 74.3. Average career NFL touchdowns thrown: 101.6.”

@NickelCityBills: KC has the second fewest points against this season (138). BUF has already faced (and defeated) the top team (DET)

 

@NickelCityBills: The Bills' turnover differential is tied for 4th best at +7 (thanks Jets), KC is 22nd at -2

 

Btw, they both played the Jets

Andy Reid Cites Leadership for Defensive Success

Fresh off another victory on Sunday, coach Andy Reid talked about the leadership from his defensive stars

 

The Kansas City Chiefs, winners of five of their last six games, defeated the New York Jets 24-10 Sunday afternoon at Arrowhead Stadium.

 

Led by the defense, the Chiefs have shined throughout this stretch of games.

 

They rank No. 2 in the NFL in scoring defense, giving up just 17.3 points per game. They also currently rank No. 1 in the NFL in pass defense, giving up an average of just 199.4 yards per game.

 

Part of the reason for that success is the play of outside linebacker Justin Houston, who currently leads the NFL with 12 sacks.

I had a thread on this last week, and I think it's worth posting here...

 

A great film room breakdown of Justin Houston--one of the best pure pass rushers in the NFL, by Football Outsiders' Cian Fahey:

 

Justin Houston

 

He's up to 12 sacks now. They'll have to help Henderson with assignment as it was similarly done with Cameron Wake in week 2 vs. the Dolphins. Houston is just one of the reasons that it would be great to have Fred back on the field for this game.

@BuffRumblings

We asked @ArrowheadPride five questions. They gave us five answers. #Chiefs vs. #Bills on Sunday. http://www.buffaloru...-pride

Speaking of Kelce: he's been sort of a revelation, eh? I know he plays less than Anthony Fasano, so what can Bills fans expect in terms of how and when Kelce comes onto the field, and where he lines up?

 

Thorman: Based on what we know, Fasano will play almost all the snaps and Kelce will be around the 50-60 percent mark. Of course we all want him to play more because despite those lower snap counts he leads the team in receiving. He will line up in two tight end sets, which are somewhat new to the Chiefs this year (at least in this quantity) as well as in the slot. He is a deep-ish threat but I think his best routes are ones that stay near the line of scrimmage and give him an opportunity to get into space because he is deceptively elusive at his size (6'5", 260 pounds).

 

Justin Houston has a sack in seven of eight games this season, and multiple sacks in four of eight. Have teams tried anything specific to try to slow his roll? Are fans thinking about his potentially setting the single-season sack record yet?

 

Thorman: We are talking about whether he can set the single-season sack record. Through eight games, he's on pace to break it (24 to Michael Strahan's 22.5). Houston really is the full package. You have some guys who only have a finesse move and others who are technicians with their hands (like Tamba Hali) and others who can rush the passer but can't stop the run. Houston can do it all. He is a strong, strong man who will bull rush over a tackle if he needs to. Sure you can leave another back in there to chip him or put extra protection on his side, but Hali is still a decent player on the other side. It's almost a pick-your-poison type of situation with those two. The best way to stop them is to get the ball out quickly, which is what we've seen from quarterbacks like Peyton Manning.
