And you’re still missing the point, but that’s fine. No offense, but the idea that the Chiefs collectively said “yeah, we could roll these guys at will, but let’s keep it close because we don’t really need to score more” is kind of insane. They were a missed FG (by Bass) OR a CEH ruled fumble away from being in serious danger. i’m not missing the point. I’m pointing out how your point doesn’t matter when you haven’t proven a damn thing as a team.

Like the Chiefs did the season before dropping the 2 games I referenced above in weeks 5 and 6 of 2019? Losing in the AFCCG? Is that proving something? Your argument lacks any kind of consistency.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 6 hours ago, PUNT750 said: Special Teams: They are special for the Bills. Great kick-off and Punt coverage. Bass missed a 52 yard FG attempt but made a 48 yard kick. He's a kid with a great leg. Our Punter is among the top in the NFL. He's special and I'm glad the Bills stole him from the Patriots. Offense: Josh had an off game. In the 1st half we should have scored a lot more points. If you want to find fault with him then do so. He's our leader and now in games he has additional pressure because we HAVE TO SCORE every possession with that rotten defense. The teams knows it! Defense: We signed 4 Free-Agents on the DL and at LB to take over. It turns out none were outstanding on their previous teams and can't supply the muscle to make an impact. IF Ed Oliver is hurt so be it. I see him as a DE and not a interior lineman who can make a difference. SIZE: Maybe it was the all-Blue uniforms but the Bills defense looked small & over-matched in size by the KC offensive players. Just an observation. Let's beat the Jets - - GO BILLS Wait, let me figure this out...you're telling us all to stop the complaining, while you complain?

Your argument lacks any kind of consistency. keep saying consistency, it gives you credibility. you cherry picked the one time the Chiefs lost two games in a row as if it has anything to do with the Bills. I already made my case. I’ll repeat it for you. At that point the Chiefs had already shown they could beat playoff teams. the Bills under McDermott have not.
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) So if the Bills are this years Chiefs, and following the pattern......Chiefs next beat Broncos 30-6, but only produces 206 yards, but all of a sudden produces a pass rush sacking Flacco 9x. Of course, Mahomes after starting 10-11, got injured and Moore finished the game. The Chiefs then lost to the Packers next week without Mahomes. So we beat up the Jets this week but lack an impressive showing offensively, lose Josh, and develop a pass rush, before losing to the Pats! Hmmm! Get ready for more panic LOL.

Rain had a hall of a lot more to do with it than anything the Bills or Chiefs did.

And what it is is a 4 - 2 record, the two losses being against two of the four best teams in football, and the four wins being the Jets and three decent, solid teams. It's hard to know what direction this is going or what we'll look like in four or five weeks. pretty much we have all the opportunity in the world to turn our season around. that starts with beating the patriots in 2 weeks. that game is the most important of the season and will set the tone for the last half of the season. McD needs to learn how to beat that team.

They literally took what the defense gave them, just like the Pats did when they ran the Ball down our throats when we had Dave Wanstead because we didn't want Brady to beat us. But you are right, Mahomes is going to come out and say yea that defense is trash and we were able to do whatever we wanted and it was nice to not actually have to break a sweat. The Bills shut none of teh KC offense down. KC just decided to run the ball more in a driving rain storm than throw it becuase they could do it a 8 yards a carry. 1

Reveal hidden contents unless you are the 2019 Chiefs, who did that. And during that time lost 3 of 5...and ended up winning the Super Bowl
