If you’re running just a stats based analysis on the whole season, yeah, the Chiefs don’t look impressive. If you are looking at the whole picture, you see a team that played most of the season without Rashee Rice, that only got DeAndre Hopkins as a replacement midseason, that only got Brown back for the final 3 games of the year (and he didn’t play in one of them). And you see a Buffalo team that is injured in some spots that make KC a tough matchup for them.
If KC can handle Buffalo up front, the Bills are going to either (1) need to win a shootout when the Bills and Josh Allen out-coach and out-play Mahomes or (2) get lucky with turnovers to win.
Yeah, the Bills can win. They’re good. But their paths to victory and advantages are not as varied or obvious as some are acting.

I think the Houston game soured a lot of media on us.
Because our offense that had started to click looked pedestrian again.
But I think there are two major factors.
Houston Defense was playing great, they have absolute stars that Buffalo does not have. Ed Oliver is not a Danielle Hunter or a Will Anderson. Buffalo does not have 2 lock down corners.
Game script was to play conservative and win with defense.
