Bills @ Chiefs Postgame Thread

It's almost like they thought it would look more like a straight line to the refs if Toney lined up a yard ahead of the ball and the RT lined up a yard behind it.  A little trick of perspective.  Problem is, there are actually yard lines and *****.

Well, if they don't call the RT ever, and clearly see it every play, maybe they won't call the WR either. From their reaction you clearly see the entitlement. Demanding a warning for a player who never checked with the official rather than owning up to the mistake.

[BRH]

I guess the next thing will be people scrutinizing every Chiefs offensive play this season to see how many times someone lined up Offside and whether it was called or a "warning" was given.

I think it may very well already be happening.  They went off on the refs last week in Green Bay too.

 

Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch.

 

 

I missed that, did they (Mahomes and Reid) really?  considering they were gifted a late hit/UR call on Mahomes that sustained a drive, That's Some *****.

Was there someone saying we should trade Allen?  I avoid the game day threads and focus on the post game stuff so did I miss this insanity?

 

 

 

Not in the gameday thread.  I seen like one or two people post on it in other threads back towards maybe the Denver or Pats game.  It was ridiculous and I don't even remember who it was.

while every game against a good team is situational in historical perspective, I feel like we got a monkey off our back in our history with the Chiefs.

 

Now about those Bengals...

We beat them in the regular season the past two years as well.

I also have seen it, and didn't bother to learn the screennames of the whackadoodles who posted it.

Watching postgame there’s absolutely zero chance Pegula and Beane fire McDermott.

I agree.  And though I believe moving on from McD would be in the best interests of the Bills going forward I did feel for the guy at the end when after the Bills stopped the Chiefs they showed McD on the sideline almost keeling over with relief.

 

And it was clear that the Bills played for McD yesterday.  Say what you will but he hasn't lost this locker room.

 

With that being said though we still saw the issues of a Bill's offense that has been neglected over the last few years, particularly on the O line & at WR.  As I look around the league the most successful caches & organizations are those that prioritize the offense.

 

And in the end the D did give up a TD that might have led to another excruciating loss. 

 

But this WAS  great win there is no denying it.  And if McD can get the Bills into the playoffs and then in the off season reset the draft & FA priority towards strengthening the offense I would be very happy to have been wrong about McD.

Past three years*. They haven’t beaten us in the regular season in a long time now.  Mahomes has never beaten us at arrowhead in the regular season

 

13 seconds kind of saved their bacon…Josh and the bills owning the chiefs would be a big story if it wasn’t for that 

we’d be 4-0 against them since the 2020 season all at arrowhead if it wasn’t for that

They do call the RT.  He's had 15 penalties this season including 7 false start (which is a dead ball foul thus supercedes Offside) and 1 offsetting.

 

Thing is, it's like DBs mugging the receiver, even if they're called for DPI or DH it's not called nearly as often as they do it. 

 

But the Chiefs have been (IMHO) getting the "star treatment" on penalties IMHO, thus their reaction I guess.

I believe we're even 4/4 in the regular season going back to McD beating them with Tyrod in 2017.

Thats what gives hope for the Bills going far in the playoffs.

 

who are the top teams in the AFC?

 

Chiefs?  We can beat them

 

Dolphins? We have show we can beat them

 

Raven?  They may be playing the best in the AFC and they aren’t world beaters.

This is so true but I'd think it's far to say other teams and fans are saying similar things about the Bills. 

 

There is still a long way to the playoffs and it will be on the road. Just wanna get there. Never thought I'd be saying that. This season hasn't gone like I thought it would. 

 

Yes, the Bills are dangerous similar to the Chargers a couple of years ago who fell just short of the playoffs.

I think he’s saying, in addition to this season, we’ve also beaten the Chiefs the last two regular season games. I had to read it twice.

I am surprised no one is talking about the most exciting game of the day yesterday. The thrilling 3-0 Vikings win over the Raiders.

I had Adams and Hockenson on my fantasy team and I was gouging my eyes out just watching it on Gamecast. I could only imagine if I was a fan of those teams watching that then again I have seen 9-6 so I guess its not that far off.

I don’t agree…I think other teams are rooting pretty hard that we miss the playoffs honestly…I’m sure dolphins fans are.  Especially given some of the alternative wildcard teams are the colts and bengals with backup qbs 
 

to an outsider looking in it feels like we’ve gotten pretty unlucky this year. I see a lot of other fanbases mocking us for wanting to fire McDermott and such lol 

[Man with No Name]

Good win. But knowing they won't get rid of McDermott takes the wind out of my sails. He will just never be the right guy for Allen. Maybe it will be healthy for the entire fanbase to temper expectations. We are in for a Dan Reeves/ Marty Schottenheimer type run for the foreseeable future. Maybe we will luck into the big one once. 

 

Worse coaches have won a SB. Im pretty sure.

Have you actually watched Lamar?? 

 

I have actually, and I've been pretty impressed how his passing  has improved and how the Ravens passing offense has developed this season under their new OC.

Have played Chiefs 5x in regular season under McDermott.  4-1 regular season, 0-2 playoffs.

Agree.  The only thing I would say right now is the Bengals are still kicking ass.  They have a lot of talent on the offensive side of the football and their backup is playing well.  Hopefully a film thing will fix that as DCs get more tape on him and can scheme him.

Ah, I missed the 2020 game when I was looking through the schedules!
