The issue against Buffalo is they kept the safeties deep the same as AFC Championship game but squeezed our passing options for the RPO.

Nice counter and told Edmunds to stop hunting the RB but just stay still.

We then had no counter to that but idiotic attacks to the side of the field.

Middle of the field still wide open against Buffalo...we just needed to get a few yards deeper.

It was eerily similar to our loss in Baltimore where Baltimore and Buffalo coaches both adjusted a bit more to defend KC (nothing crazy but squeezing the RPO windows for Buffalo and Baltimore with layered pass-rush etc).

And Spags had perfect gameplan against Lamar which they then tinkered with back and we didn't adjust.

Spags against Buffalo didn't use ANYTHING that worked last year against Allen in the 1st half. Kept showing Allen our cards and leaving Sorenson alone deep...plus no pressure.

We are still contenders but not favorites anymore. Just a wounded animal that other team's best knock off soon because they won't want to see us in the playoffs.
