***The Sunday of NFL games without the Chiefs thread***

[scho63]

Just saw that the two early games on TV here in Phoenix area are Rams vs Jets and Cards vs Panthers.

Holy shit, looks like I can do something else for the first half of my day.

**** Buffalo. Shithole town. Shitty fans. Beady eyed dick coach. America hates you.

KC’s 6-1 vs playoff teams (10-1 in the last calendar year). Buffalo is 2-3. They also have as many close wins vs weak teams as KC, and more lackluster performances.

Somehow, this adds up to “Bills are dominant and KC’s doomed.”

Bills should be a little insulted by this honestly.

It’s the A student (Chiefs) getting a B+ vs the C student (Bills) getting the same grade.

“Cmon, you can do better” vs “good for you!”

It’s far more fair to doubt the perennial post season losers with the bridesmaid QB than possibly the greatest dynasty in NFL history with possibly the greatest (and soon to be) most accomplished player in the history of the League.

I dunno, this one reminded me of KC against Denver last year. Chiefs squeaked out an ugly win at home, but lost in Denver a couple weeks later. Buffalo plays in New England in a couple weeks. Perhaps New England has a better chance of winning than previously thought.

Raiders fall from No. 2 to 6 with win
JAX, TEN, CLE, NE ahead of them https://t.co/CqroKL6vDc

New England winning wouldn’t surprise me, because I expect the Bills to be locked into the 2 and resting starters by then.

Bills will be playing their backups in that game after the Chiefs beat the Steelers on Wednesday

Maybe so, but I am thinking more along the lines of a legit matchup featuring Buffalo starters. If KC or Buffalo lose the next game, Buffalo will be forced to play their starters in the New England rematch. They cannot afford to lose 2 in a row or Baltimore gains home field advantage in playoffs.

That last statement is not what I said. That's your hyperbole.

My point was if you haven't watched the Bills all season and watched this one game, you'd think they were a mediocre team. They're a LOT better than New England and just didn't show up for this game. The Chiefs are a LOT better than the opponents they've played close games with all season.

It was just a flukey game.

This game is awful so far, Dallas has finally decided to show up at home

This game is so ****ing boring.

[Why Not?]

It’s a prime time NFL game. Y’all expected it to be good?

First Cowboy game I've watched all season. Who knew Cowboys football could cure insomnia?

Wow, what a catch by Evans.
