Now, I’m not going to pretend to believe the Chiefs didn’t try to win the game last week. I think they did.

But I can believe that a few things they have planned for the Bills could have been kept in reserve. Like giving pass rush snaps to Uche.

I don’t think they were going to roll out ALL their best wrinkles for this matchup.

Take the Bills, for example, busting out the Chargers’ DL games to trick Mahomes into a scramble that is cleaned up by a spy.

They’ve tipped that hand. That very effective tactic is now “out there” and the Chiefs won’t be caught off guard by it again.

Is that worth spending for the Bills in the regular season? Probably, as their only chance to realistically catch KC for the 1 seed is winning this matchup.
