Play ultra aggressive on def.  If you get burned so what, they're gonna score anyway.   Need stops.  

100 percent agreed. Just blitz and play with tight man with single high, and hope KC makes a mistake at some point.

Giving them all day with 10 yards of cushion ain't the winning formula

No Benford, No Rapp, what can Babich come up with?

I think Bishop is better than Rapp in this game.  I don't think we're seeing poor Benford until 2025 season.

Everyone saying stop playing conservative doesn’t know what’s happening. We are playing man on man, we are playing as un conservative as possible. You can’t blitz on every play

[Cheektowaga Chad]

We will find out pretty quickly if we have a game on our hands

 

All season they have been lights out with adjustments, hopefully that continues

That pass to Shakir and the TD to Hollins were excellent, but otherwise Allen is playing as badly as he has all season, missing receivers, throwing into triple coverage, fumbling the ball... He has some of that overly excited look in his eye that he used to have. Reminds me of his play in the Houston game. 

 

well, our WRs can’t get open.    Coleman is a joke of a pick rather than Worthy or McConkey

[DuckyBoys]

need to be able to run the ball In second half and likely will need to get another lucky turnover or two to have a shot   Mahomes is throwing to wide open guys underneath  Josh is again dealing with pressure from Spags and no easy throws  Kincaid /Knox needed to show up in the middle of the field  OL is going to have to reach deep in second half and start winning up front  Cant lose LOS on both sides and have any shot to win

[Playoffs?]

McDermott lost this game before it started.

Benford might be done for his career 

 

They had to buckle him into the cart so he wouldn't fall out

Wait. A rational intelligent take?  How dare you. 

[stevewin]

Its crazy how many spots have been so wrong with no replay

[Billsfanatic8989]

The football gods need to bless the Bills. Please....

 

A pick six

Turnover

Missed GW fg

 

Something...

"Josh is playing as badly as he has all season...."? What have you been watching since September?

He's playing well now, but he came out as "sugar-high Josh" on that first drive.  Brady calling a QB run to settle him down wasn't even enough.

I'll agree about McConkey he is a stud but Worthy hasn't been more than a gadget guy against most teams

NFL just glazing over the fix job on the not catch. Won't even debate it because they can't contest the league. 

I have had a surprising number of non-football people message me since that play. I think a lot of folks have seen that and it confirmed the narrative of “the fix” being in for the Chiefs.

[Success]

Bishop came so close to having that big play I thought he might have.

 

Still a half to play.

Maybe we pull a Cincy and shut ‘Em out in the 2nd half. 

They buckle up their chin straps in the second half.

Yeah, definitely. It's McDermott's fault he's playing Kaiir Elam and Cole Bishop instead of Christian Benford and Taylor Rapp against Playoff Patrick Mahomes. 

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

I bet we see ingram mixed in there and we are going to have to play a lot more zone.

 

On O, need to pound the rock.  

[thenorthremembers]

If they don't somehow pull it off tonight I will never think they can best the Chiefs in the playoffs again.  Mahomes is better than Allen and Reid is better than McDermott.   The Bills are a great team who have the unfortunate luck of playing in the same conference of a better team.
