The facemask no call cost us a lot there.  Sick of KC getting away w that ish.

 

MCD w the challenge is also trash

yeah they pay an respected ex ref to make those calls.  have zero idea what this paid former ref was looking at.

I mean, it's nice to have the lead, but man....it just feels like we gave away so many opportunities to be up more.

It's the bills way

Who’s leading?

These 2 things are not opposites.

We get the ball.

Second half team. D can shut down. They’re holding kelce to nothing so far and just letting them have worthy. Offense needs an opening drive td and we can let them get desperate

Joe Brady, this is basically your biggest drive coming out of halftime. Points are mandatory.

 

I totally abandon the short passing go for downfield/let Josh take off.

 

I'd love that, but the Chiefs DBs have been pretty good covering our receivers downfield. Josh has made some good throws downfield, so hopefully they can find opportunities.

 

He's also missing some easier throws though, so it could be dangerous. If they go conservative, it's obvious they're trying to limit chances for turnovers.

I think all things considered that was a good half. Feel much better that we got the lead back. A TD drive out of the half would be huge 

[Johnnycage46]

All things considered good half. Got the lead, get ball first. Tighten up D in 2nd half and finish O drives and bring it home!

[Unforgiven]

i hate the chiefs.

[NewEra]

Very close to being magical.

 

but I’ll take the lead and the bills halftime bet.  Let’s goooooo!!

 

good half of football.  Would’ve been nice to force them into one fg attempt.

 

Minus kincaid and Keon, the O has been ok.  Can’t wait to see them all together.

That WR bubble screen playcall was absolutely crap

We overuse and under perform it.

Game living up to the hype at least.  even if people in the national audience done have a rooting interest 

yep. Would have preferred a 31-3 first half beatdown by us, but… I guess the Chiefs get paid too 😂

That’s what this team always does.  Squandering opportunities and points is the Bills mantra. 

[HurlyBurly51]

I wish we had some kind of technology that could catch things the refs missed and relay it down to them.  We could call it the "eye in  the sky"

We are running our offense.  And it’s working, except for Josh’s 4th down throw.

[BRH]

I just don’t understand how the Sky Judge can’t buzz down a blatant personal foul like that was.  Especially in a game like this where there are cameras everywhere.

[DuckyBoys]

solid half Be nice to have the fg instead of the 4th down int and the typical Bass xp whiff  Opening drive is huge for momentum/confidence

[sven233]

I get that Cook is having a pretty nice game and I understand that Johnson is the vet, but man.....I miss Davis being a part of this offense.

[aristocrat]

The face mask would have put us 1-10 from the 13. Man that is a game changer
