They're hanging their hat on the idea that the Bills will simply play better than they did in Week 6. They're completely ignoring the fact that their game plan didn't work. It's not that they didn't execute, it's that the game plan was flawed from the start. No amount of proper execution can overcome deficiencies in play calling and personnel. There doesn't seem to be any awareness of that fact. This time will be different because the Bills will play better. Nevermind that they're completely avoiding the idea that the Chiefs might play better too. |

People look at raw yardage and remember that 2018 pass D, that was shredded repeatedly. They don't realize that Spagnuolo's scheme and the talent brought in has drasticaly changed the pass D from a huge weakness to a major strength. It's not just Sneed being undervalued, either (though he is, drastically). It's also that Ward got some experience and played a lot better, that Breeland is rock solid, that Fenton was a gem of a find last year, that Mathieu is a star and major upgrade, and that Sorenson has been used more appropriately, and that Thornhill has major talent. I love how physical all these corners are. They fight through WR screens. They hold their edges. Tough.

The Chiefs defense gives up quite a few yards through the air. But they're 5th in the league in INT's. Turnovers are MUCH more important than yards. |

The Chiefs d could be better in the redzone, but yards don't matter. You aren't gonna just lock down teams in today's league.
Everyone looks at the Chiefs run D all thru the year then we get to the playoffs and they actually care about stopping the run and poof, teams struggle to really run it on them. No one learns. Oh well. |

If he plays like he did against Baltimore, Chiefs beat them by 2 scores. |

The Browns were "scary" leading up to the game. Hunt and Chubb were going to destroy the KC defense. They both averaged 5.3ypc which is really freaking good but you can't run the ball enough when you're down 19 -3 at halftime. |

I just don't understand how you could dismiss it. That sounds just like Bills fans. Football doesn't happen in a vacuum. |

Run all you want against Kc. If you have a few bad runs, Chiefs get a stop and you don't score, KC will go score and you'll be behind. You can't "run it and keep it away" from KC. You have to outscore them. |

That map sucks. Donk country isn’t cheering for the Chiefs. And Minnesota isn’t favoring GB.

For every big run they had, they had one where somebody dropped them for a loss. It's not sustainable, especially when the Chiefs are going to score on 70% of their drives. |

In terms of talking about the MVP or something, sure. But in terms of what it matters in this matchup, I don't really care about it. |

This is Chiefs country. I see gear everywhere. The Packers don't even register. There's more Bears and Vikings fans here than Packers. |
