Let's address the drops issue.  KC receivers had 44 drops this year, which did lead the league.  But the Bills had 30.  So that's less than one more drop per game for Mahomes than for Allen.

 

Not sure I'd say Mahomes would have a "lot" more TDs with that one extra reception per game...

Well, off the top of my head, I can remember about a half dozen dropped TDs and several TDs called back due to penalties. 

 

That's a number I'd be curious to know...how many TDs have been called back for other top teams. I think there's been at least a dozen for KC within the last two years. The narrative that KC gets all the calls is ludicrous. They've been one of the most penalized teams in the league.

Apple News just sent out a notification for an article about Hochuli being the ref for this game and the "conspiracy" that he has it out for the Bills.

 

Honestly probably a good thing it's getting so much attention. One can only hope that Hochuli realizes he's going to be under the microscope for this game.

Why would he care if he is under a microscope?  There is no accountability for refs.  The owners, players, coaches, staff aren't even allowed to say anything bad about them.

Allen obviously killed him when it comes to rushing TDs, but Mahomes' underwhelming passing numbers are mostly due to the performance of the receivers. His receivers led the league in drops by a mile. Even Kelce hasn't been sure-handed this year. He'd have a lot more TDs and at least two fewer INTs if his receivers had been able to catch balls that hit them squarely in their hands.

While this may be true, Mahomes has made plenty of mistakes of his own.  Allen also gets a lot of ball drops and has a few ints of his own that aren't his fault.

I can't recall all that many TD called back this year but in years past there were a bunch.  I remember one drive where Allen threw a TD pass and it was called back 3 straight times.  The camera caught Allen saying "how many F times I gotta score."
