Anyone notice how Ed Oliver played last week against PIT? I'm excited to see him get healthy and hopefully become a force again inside. We need that against KC.

He was extremely tentative.

His snaps were also very limited; he probably only took 1/3 of them during the game.

They were also frequently pulling him on passing downs.

I thought both him and Jordan Phillips looked like they were playing on one leg and basically just holding the POA and not really getting after it.

 

Did you look that up or guesstimate by eye?  Very impressed if the latter....Oliver played 33% of the snaps.  Phillips 28%

 

I hope Ed being listed as practicing in "Full" this week is a sign of better things to come vs. KC

 

I was disappointed by the pass rush vs. the Steelers, and I hope it was because we were up by 3 scores midway through the 2nd Q and it looked like the only team stopping the Bills was the Bills.

I was just guesstimating by how often they were pulling him off the field in the middle of series' and how early he was probably done for the day.

That lack of pass rush was probably mostly a result of both Oliver and Jordan being gimpy with limited snaps, the Bills making a point to not let a mobile rookie QB find running lanes and mostly because the Stillers were making a concerted effort to get the ball the hell out of Pickett's hands as fast as they possibly could. I'd guess it was gone in 2 second or less more often than not.

Maybe so, but Von Miller and Rousseau were being handled a little too easily by the tackles.

 

I mean if we can't muster a strong rush against a mobile QB, how we gonna rush Mahomie?

 

Anyway, I wasn't persuaded that Oliver/Phillips were better than what we fielded last week

The Bills will be way less afraid of Mahomes legs than they were of Pickett's.

The kid is younger, faster and fresher, not to mention that the Bills were absolutely not going to give him any free outs when he was unsure of what he was seeing from the defense.

I really expect the Bills pass rush to be a huge factor on Sunday. Mahomes is a rock star and will still make a ton of plays, but I think this Sunday is a damn the torpedoes day for the Bills front.

I wanna see the Jordan Phillips spin move we saw against LA.

Stopped by Chiefs Planet hoping to read a little insight as to what the enemy fans are thinking.

I immediately remembered why I don't go there ever.

That forum is an absolute cesspool. Some of the worst "football discussion" on the internet.

It's weird, because almost everyone who has attended games in KC or hung out with Chiefs fans says they're welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, etc.

Whatever the case may be, the absolute worst of the Chiefs fan base seem to gather on Chiefs Planet. I cannot stress what a garbage den that place is.

Makes me really, really thankful that we have a place as nice (and well moderated) as TSW to talk Bills.

Logic is a very fitting name for you. I live in the heart of KC country and can tell you most all Chiefs fans are that way. Unfortunately it probably rubs off on to me sometimes and I apologize for that. But dang I do hate the Chiefs with a passion. I'll be in the stands Sunday with those other 70,000 + morons. Wish me luck I sure hope we win. Thanks for your insight I enjoy reading your posts.

Rousseau also flashed a really wicked one last Sunday when he was kicked inside on a passing down. 

The RG went to lock him up and he just disappeared and instantly reappeared behind him. 

Pickett actually made a hell of a throw on that play when he had to be pissing down his leg with a giant Groot immediately in his face.

Yea I’ve been on there the last couple days browsing myself and I agree… There all a bunch of ignorant uneducated fuks when it comes to our team or football in general… They all try to hide the fact that they lost to the colts and barely beat 1-3 Raiders team… And to them our Bills are only a top 5 team in the AFC lol.. What a bunch of idiots

It's Thursday for over half the planet.  Where are the hype videos?

[DollaBills]

Theres a lot of "whos the better quarterback" media circle jerking but I have really bad news for most people, the Bills are the better team no matter what your answer to the first question is

[Buffalo_Stampede]

No way this game lives up to the hype, right?

I don't think dez and troy will be allowed on the field but the movie the last boy scout had a badass scene in the beginning.

Steelers did alot of nice things to protect their rookie QB, but it ultimately led to a very conservative offense.  Keeping TE/RBs to chip Von, rolling the pocket, very quick route concepts/1 side of field reads, etc.

 

To an extent, Kcs offense is designed to dink/dunk and spread the ball around more this yr.  Key will be shutting down their ground game and holding them to FGs, similar goals to basically the past couple years. 

 

As much as losing Micah hurts, i actually like our secondary more this season.  Elams athleticism/speed/press coverage and Hamlin is a more agressive safety.  Think we are more well rounded overall, even if we can't sack Pat.

I hope not.  I hope it's a blowout win for the Bills.  I only enjoy "great games" when the Bills aren't involved.  Love a nice comfortable win.  Hey, a guy can dream.

I like just comfortable enough lead that the Bills don't pull their starters midway through the 3rd quarter.  

[Billever76]

Best deep passing team in the league vs the worst deep passing defense.

A revitalized HOF speed rusher vs tackles that struggle against speed.

A good secondary vs a WR corpse that has struggled to get open.
 

 

 

 

Just some chief fans non biased takes on the mismatches bills produce when facing the chiefs this season

From what I can see, teams send a TE to chip Von A LOT.

Von Miller has been so great for Groot not just by attracting attention on the other side but also as a mentor
