Bills fans are crying about Shawn Hochuli and they should.

In four games against Josh Allen's Bills, Hochuli has called 40 penalties for 347 yards.

Hey, the Titans didn’t practice a full week in 2020 and beat the living shit out of the Bills, so they should know better than anyone that a perfect week of practice or lack thereof may not mean much.

But this game HAS to be played on Sunday. No need to be giving up any additional rest to Baltimore or Houston just because of a mid-week snow in Buffalo.

Should’ve stayed silent on it. If Hochuli gets wind of this he’s gonna Jawaan Taylor our asses.

It should be another epic game. Let's all pray that we win and come out healthy. We will need everyone healthy if we make the AFC championship game.

Man, just think of the legacy. 6 seasons, 6 AFCCGs.

I don't mind being on the road at all. We seem to have an ever-so-slight complacency at home sometimes, and a little more killer instinct on the road, where it's us against the world. A little more urgency right from the jump. Especially Mahomes himself, he relishes that villain arc.

These teams both get up for each other. When the Chiefs play their best, no one is beating them. They definitely didn't last game vs BUF, but they will on Sunday.

Chiefs 25 Bills 20

How do people live and exist and that frozen hellscape?

Another round of significant lake effect snow will unfold over the next 48+ hours across parts of WNY. Some of the hardest hit spots from the weekend will get pounded again with 1-2 feet (isolated 30") expected. The band will again tickle the west side of #ROC at times. pic.twitter.com/U8eyYNT39A

The snow level went from stage pink to stage yellow?

They wanted KC in Buffalo, they got it. Plus they are starting their 1st round CB. We are starting ours as well, so they shouldn't be complaining.

Good thing our QB is not Tua.

I wasn’t around to express it last year at the time, but the vibes for me entering this one are very similar to the feeling I had entering Bengals/Bills last year.

The road “underdog” is the team that is hitting their stride and playing with the most confidence they’ve had all year. While Buffalo, albeit for different reasons than last year, looks damn close to hitting E on the fuel tank. How many weeks in a row can you emotionally get up for what amounts to a playoff game? And this week, all the Chiefs history stacks on top of that?

A Bills win is certainly possible, but from the Chiefs perspective, I think next week will be perceived as a bigger challenge and that’s regardless of who comes out of Baltimore Saturday.

They live and play in Western NY. If they don't have an indoor facility to practice in, that is on them. Saying they can't practice because of snow is absolutely a cop out.

Hochuli is a terrible official even the other officials don't like him because he got the job due to his dad and not his experience.

The only sure thing is one team is gonna feel screwed Hochuli is amazingly consistent at disrupting the game in big moments with ticky tack bullshit holding calls well away from the play. For example, you get a big 4th quarter run for 20 yds off left tackle Hochuli brings it back with a holding call on the right tackle who was 15 yards away from the backs point of entry etc.

I assume the issue is getting to the facility.

Yeah, there was a story a few years ago where fans were using rescue Jeeps and ATVs to pick up players for practice... maybe after the 2020 season.

[RaidersOftheCellar]

Of course they assigned Hochuli. You think the NFL wants the Buffalo market or Mahomes and the Swifties?
