Are you more optimistic against KC this year than in prior playoff years?

[HIT BY SPIKES]

YES

 

YES I AM

[harryS]

It's going to be a 50/50 game like most of the others.

 

Comes down to McDermott making good in-game coaching decisions in clutch situations.

 

If you believe he's turned a new leaf there, then you should be more confident.  If not, then no.

I really like how the refs are getting called out big time now. everyone is watching and the league is on notice. When Aikman, Buck Romo the national unbiased pez dispensers are calling it out, it can only hurt KC's chances. 

 

If it's a fair game, I like the Bills odds!

[HOUSE]

To be honest I fear bias officiating and little yellow flags. 

[LabattBlue]

What I fear the most?  If the Bills lose, there will be endless threads about the officiating. 😞

[Shortchaz]

Romo made a good point yesterday, we’re not going to be able to audible like we did yesterday. 

 

crowd noise, weather, and officiating are going to play a role.

I have felt confident in the Bills vs. the Chiefs for a while now. They have beaten them enough, in Arrowhead no less. And this is arguably the worst version of the Chiefs they have faced in a while.

All finished game except Rspp.  Hardly a pile-up

I wonder if Chiefs fans have real optimism.  They do have the 3-0 against us in the playoffs but they aren’t the same Chiefs in the past. 

[RobbRiddick]

Given the choice before the playoffs of playing the ravens or chiefs I’d have chosen the chiefs because we match up better with them, so im a little optimistic but still expect to be disappointed because

 

a) I’m a Bills fan

b) the Chiefs have a lot of players back and will be tougher than last time. They kicked the rust off against the Texans

[Bills!Win!]

My heart keeps telling me that we can’t go 0-4 against the chiefs like we did in the superbowls. It just shouldn’t work like that

The Chiefs are playing in their 7th straight AFC Championship game.

In my opinion, this is the 7th-best team they have fielded in that period of time.

 

The Bills were built to stop the Chiefs.  They were not built to stop the Ravens, and barely squeaked past them.

We have taken them down in the regular season every year.  Should have done it in 13 seconds.  Had a chance last year, despite most of the starting defense being injured.  Despite the even record overall, I think we have the edge over them.

 

At this point, it's all about the mental hurdle.

YES

I truly believe yesterday was the AFC title game 

Can't wait to see my 2nd AFC title game as an adult 

I'm extremely confident I'll be seeing my first Bills SB as an adult.

I love the Bills no matter what but this 24 team is special 

[bills6969]

Why do people keep saying this is KC team is the worst version? They basically have the same team that won the Super Bowl the past 2 seasons.  They’re 15-2 for a reason.  Mahomes is clutch.  Our D will need to play unbelievable to pull this out.  KC won’t gift us 3 TOs like Balt did.

[Process]

As long as we are healthy, yes, of course. We almost beat them last year missing half our defense. 

 

Rapp didn't look good, but hopefully Taron is okay. Saw a random post saying Greg didn't play the last drive? Hopefully he is not hurt. 

[Billsfed1]

 

[gordong]

yes we are a much better team then the one that already beat them...   the bills have heard for over 2 years now...you cant beat the chiefs...  this year "your not good enough to even win the division might not even make the playoffs" ... the chip is LARGE.   never underestimate when someone has a VALID cause.   

[Homey D. Clown]

Seriously, if the defense plays like that next weekend, they have no chance.  you cannot let mahommes, Andy Reid, and the refs run up and down the field in their own stadium like that.  There's really not one game you can to re-watch where that defense has not been walked down the field like a kid being walked down the hall to the principle's office.  We love our Bills here at my house, but that defense is *****.  need more than dumb luck to win in arrowhead.

[Another Fan]

A 40% chance to me.

 

Im not buying the Ravens game was the easier one.

 

The Bills CAN win it but they’re also going up against the Refs/the powers that be as well if you catch my drift.
