Who will guard Travis Kelce??

[Slack_in_MA]

Hmmm... Sonja Henie's out...Danny Noonan?

Just to blow him up at the line !

but  I do agree. Frazier might best be flexible as to how Bills manage Kelce   etc
D line has some work to do being sure to set edge and contain while pressure comes up the middle

They made that Chiefs offense work for yards…..nothing came easy.

Exactly the opposite of what the Steelers did. We generally match up well against passing offenses, it’s running O’s we struggle against. This game can be won if the Bills O can sustain drives, keep KC offense off the field, and give our D adequate rest. The inept Steelers O gassed their D, which was holding up early, then the Chiefs scored a couple then the D quit. Sustained time-consuming drives with points at the end is the key.
 

Also beat them up physically cause I’m sick of their s$*t.

No, Neal is horrible in coverage.

Yeah I know 

[billsherd]

Cam Lewis and Siran Neal.

The answer is just about everyone.  We play mostly zone w 2 deep safeties vs Mahomes.  In zone coverage the LB's and dbacks work together, there won't be a guy following Kelce around.

 

Last time we played them, Kelce and Tyreek had about 60 yards each.  It was manageable.   Leslie may run some man coverage to mix it up, a few games ago he had Tredavious shadowing Kelce for awhile but switched back to zone not long after.

 

Our biggest worry is going to be blocking Chris Jones and Melvin Ingram.  Neither one of those guys played last game (Jones hurt, Ingram wasn't a Chief yet) and they're both elite in my opinion.  KC was 4-4 when Ingram came on board and they launched from there.  Jones killed us last year in the AFC championship game.   When we play teams that can pass rush well, Daboll and the Oline HAVE TO make the run game work to some extent. 

 

If we end up in another situation where we give up on the run and make Josh throw 50 passes I think we are toast.  Must keep their D guessing.  It sounds extreme but Motor may be just as important in this game as Josh.  You can do it little/big man!

I'll say it over and over until the game is over, pressure the bleep out of Mahomes. He cracks under pressure. Remember the first game against Miami this season? That's what we need to do to Mahomes all game 

Agreed ... he gets frustrated easily.

YEP!  This is the answer.

Dane was unable to cover Pitts effectively and Kelce is bigger. He will have to be bumped early by an LB and or a safety and then covered by Dane or Johnson. The problem is Mahomes extending plays and keeping Kelce covered. If he starts hurting us Sean might have to double him with Edmunds and a db. He can wreck a game.

[JMF2006]

Matt Milano and Taron Johnson would be my best guess with help from Hyde and Poyer.

...the key is to make Mahomes be patient ... he is naturally impatient and wants to make a play sooner than later and turn it into a school yard match ... because he is a natural athlete.  I think it was Phil Simms who gave that analysis and explained why Bills won in October.

The question is, do the Bills employ this method again as it appears the Chiefs may have figured out how to beat the Tampa 2.

So, try to minimize Kelse/Hill (good luck) and make Mahomes be "patient."

 

Sound like anyone you know?

Man, Kelce looks much faster than his 4.6 40 time. Every time I get a chance to watch him, he just runs away from people. 

 

He's definitely going to be a problem.

Matt Milano…why is this even a thread?

[Dablitzkrieg]

We are built specifically to beat these guys. Let's ***** go

[Bangarang]

Double Kelce and double Hill at all times. 

[ArtVandalay]

Well no one did in the AFCC last year, so anyone will be an upgrade. 

 

Probably best to put a corner on him.  He was stifled this year for several weeks they'll probably see what was working well on him. 

[K-9]

It will be a combination of different players. Gotta limit the free releases, regardless. 

[Big Turk]

Bills should double Hill and Kelce and force someone else to beat them.

Kelce       6-5, 255, 4.61 (40)

Edmunds  6-5, 253, 4.54 (40)

If Tremaine is such a world class coverage linebacker, then let him be the hero by playing TK man all day. Chuck him at the line.

Yeah, but I’d like to win, not prove that Edmunds is who we thought he was.

[Paul Costa]

Will be a group effort. Need to muddle rush Mahomes much more than Pittsburgh. They let him outside way too much. He slaughtered them once leaving the pocket 

[Freddie's Dead]

Edmunds will be the main cover man, and he will hold Kelce to under a hunny and no TD's.
