The KC board is pretty hilarious, trying to denigrate Allen because he is so "beta" compared to Mahomes...

 

How do you know when someone is super insecure? When they start talking about that nonsense.

Allen Threat level 🚨

I think we are going to see 9 months of pent up frustration released at Arrowhead tomorrow.

The Bills moved on. They're a positive vibe team who plays football for fun while working

 

Theyre not a punch the clock kind of team like the Ravens were in their short dynasty, like the Patriots were for the early 00's.

KC fans have this weird inferiority complex when it comes to Allen. They are constantly looking for affirmation that Mahomes is good. It’s weird.

Benford is 6’ 1 205 4.52 and plays physical.  I think he’s a great chess piece against Kelce

If you watch the all-22 of last season game vs chiefs, Tre white was very physical with Kelce and it was impactful.

Why not Elam? He's also big, and he's faster, more athletic, and better in man coverage than Benford. Plus, he won't have a club on his hand. 

 

I believe we used a combination of Taron Johnson and Matt Milano to cover TE in previous games

 

The Chiefs do have WR who must be accounted for.  Now it's true that Kelce has the most receiving yards on the team, but one can't quite ignore TikTok Boy, Valdez-Scantling, and Hardman.  You guys want a nickel CB or a LB on them?

He had two good hands at the time

I haven’t been excited for a regular season game like this in a very long time. 
 

Hurry up tomorrow !

Hmmmmm. 

 

"Stats don't lie" but what stats tell you is not always what you superficially think they will tell you.  Traditionally, the Chiefs have NOT been a great run D team.  #31 for Y/A last year.  They are a good D for overall rush yards against because the attempts against them are low; teams get behind Big Time and turn to the pass to catch up.

 

So far this year, Chiefs are #1 for fewest rush attempts and #3 for rush yards against their D.  #7 for Y/A.  That latter says, when teams do run, they're good not great.

 

What stands out to me is that a good rushing team (the Raiders) racked up 155 yds against them (6.45 Y/A), and that with only 5 games, the average may be skewed by one game.   The difference between the top SF run D and the mediocre NYJ is 43 yards per game at this point.

 

In the Tampa Bay game, Tampa had an unbelieveable 3 rush yards on 6 carries.   6 rushes for 3 yds all game.  So even a mediocre game by Tampa where they got 45 rush yards would have dropped the Chiefs down to 17th or 18th rush D for rush yards per game.

 

I would not take home the message "the Chiefs are good at stopping the run, don't bother to try, abandon the run" and I don't think the Chiefs will take home that message either.  I think when teams hold the Chiefs in check defensively and try, they can run like the Raiders and to some extent the Cardinals did.

 

The Bills run D does not show the same "3 rush yards in one game" anomaly, BTW.  Our anomaly is in the other direction, where the Ravens hit us up for 162 rush yards in a close win for us while every other team has been well under 100 - sometimes for the same reason, we got a big lead early and our opponent had to throw.  But I've been cautiously impressed by how sound the Bills run D has been so far.

 

 

Great analysis.

 

I don't wanna hear, or read any implications, that Arrowhead Stadium is loud and intimidating. Screw those fans. Enough is enough. No fear.

 Josh Allen is the only other QB in existence who stands shoulder to shoulder with Mahomes. There is no one else. Also, Josh Allen matched Mahomes at last year's playoff game. KC fans know that Allen is the real deal Holyfield.

Sure but Benford gives zero *****. He’s a keeper

[Slippery Rubber Mats]

I love what Benford has shown so far, but I'd prefer the guy covering Kelce to have two usable hands.

[RevWarRifleman]

Go Bills!! I know I'll have my pop corn ready.

I have no disagreement there - Benford is absolutely a Keeper.

 

But I'd prefer that the guy trying to hold on to Kelce and tackle him possess two unimpaired hands.  That ***** guy is hard enough to tackle with two hands.

Kelce is the best TE ever and is without a club on his hand.  Benford may be a chess piece against Kelce in time, I don’t know if he will be tomorrow

Branford’s playing?  Did I miss something?

Benford is labeled as "unspecified" after Friday on the injury report.  That means there is no medical reason to suggest he won't play.  Whether or not he starts or plays is a coaching decision.

I can’t wait to read all the doom and gloom, and stupid hot takes around here if the Bills lose this game.  🙄

Thing I'm going to (try and) remember is we beat the Chiefs in the regular season last year, yet didn't make the number one seed and lost at Arrowhead in overtime. Not that anyone remembers anything which happened in the latter, of course.

 

But a defeat - even a blow out - won't be the end of the world. The worst thing will be having to sit on it for two weeks before getting the chance to put it right.
