Then again, I thought I read there was a chance they may be getting Williams and Cappa back this weekend.

But yeah - I'll take my chances against that patchwork mess they sent out there against Buffalo. If they think that's the level of performance they're going to get from those guys, I feel like they could be in for a rude awakening.

{fingers crossed}

Like we’ve said before, the past performances agains the Bengals OL by our front both rushing the passer and stopping the run have been inexcusable.

They need to make it right this week. It’s a very reasonable task considering the OL they’ll face.

Does that say more about the Bengals or Bills though?

Because the Bengals OL was terrible in all aspects against the Ravens.

Burrow was hit 8 times, sacked 4 times.

Mixon had 11 carries for 39 yards. Perine had 2 carries for 3 yards. Burrow ran 5 times for 9 yards. As a team, they averaged 2.8 yards per carry with a long run of 11 yards (that 11 yard run accounted for 20% of their rushing yards on the day).

The Bengals OL performance against the Bills reminded me a lot of when the Chiefs gashed them with CEH and a line of Fisher, Allegretti, Kilgore, Wylie, and Remmers. That turned out to be absolute fools gold though.

I understand why everyone would want to look at the most recent game, but expanding the sample size tells a different story about the Bengals OL.

The Bengals lost RT Collins week 16. They lost RG Cappa week 18. They lost LT Williams in the wildcard round.

If you want to see how the Bengals coaching staff puts together an offensive game plan down those three guys, there's only one game to look at. Against the Bills, they saw success running the ball and with quick throws.

I'm not saying they're an elite run-blocking unit. They're just more comfortable there. The Bills rushed 19 times for 63 yards (3.3 yards/carry) while the Bengals ran for 172 yards on 34 attempts (5.1 yards/carry).

Yep. To have a QB who gets the ball out fast but still allow 8 hits and 4 sacks is terrible.

Chris Jones needs to feast and get his first sack. 2-3 wouldn’t hurt.

Man why'd Tyler Huntley have to fumble it on the goal line... would've saved us such a headache.

Nah. We would have had to play the Bills on a neutral field.

This is EXACTLY what we want - the Chiefs as an underdog at home. They're going to win.

Yeah, this couldn't have worked out better for us. AFCCG in Arrowhead with the opportunity to exact our revenge against Home Alone and the Gang.

We need 3-4 sacks and a lot of pressure on Sunday.

If we get little pressure and no sacks, we are in trouble.

I think the Jags beat the Bills if that would have happened...

Don't be a wuss. It's time to put these dogs down.

Agreed.

That Bills team was simply done. And then they flat embarrassed themselves.

No, that's a 3-3-5

Heavy nickel is using a heavier safety as your NCB. It's essentially our 3-safety look and you'd presumably station Cook in the box as a hybrid Sam backer/NCB.

Lol, what am I thinking? Spags doesn't do 3 DLs.

I predict Chrissy ends the game with 0 sacks. Bold, I know.
