CBS: The Bills are the team no one, including the Chiefs wants to see in the playoffs
Mentions the Chiefs several times, so figured you guys would want to see it.
The Bills are the team no one, including the Chiefs wants to see in the playoffs Forget the Ravens. Forget the Bucs. The team you don't want to play in January is the Buffalo Bills. With all due respect to the Packers, the AFC's No. 2 overall seed may very well be the second-best team in the NFL. The Bills crushed the Dolphins 56-26 in a game Miami needed for their playoff hopes. And maybe we didn't see a 30-point win coming, but it's in line with what the Bills have been doing to teams in recent weeks. Buffalo has had a top-five scoring defense since Week 12. If not for the Hail Murray they would have finished on a 10-game win streak dating back to before Halloween. And then there's Josh Allen. The third-year franchise quarterback has, in consecutive weeks, set the Bills single-season records for passing touchdowns and passing yards. What I love most about the Bills is that they aren't even letting teams hang around. Since that Week 10 loss to the Cardinals, not a single team has finished within a possession of the Bills. I go back to that Week 6 loss to the Chiefs. Head coach Sean McDermott picked his poison and let the Chiefs' run game beat them up so that Patrick Mahomes wouldn't. Kansas City rushed for 245 yards and Mahomes passed for 225 yards. But with about 5 minutes left in the game and down 23-17, the Bills forced a Clyde Edwards-Helaire fumble that would have given the Bills the ball at the Kansas City 31. They would have had a chance to take the lead against the Chiefs there. But instead, the replay showed Edwards-Helaire's knee was down just before the ball came out. Mahomes took the Chiefs down for the field goal and that provided the final margin of victory. Allen is a better quarterback today than he was then. The defense is playing far better ball. And after sweeping the Patriots and beating the likes of the Seahawks and Steelers, the Bills now know how to win big games. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/t...insider-notes/ |

Like melted down completely. That's his postseason legacy until it's not. Don't come here, where Mahomes had 3 comeback victories to win a world championship and talk that smack. |

It's why Daboll threw out his Patriot way playbook after Allen got injured his rookie year. Chiefs lied to Allen presnap and it caused just enough of a delay to totally mess up your passing offense. |

The bottom line is the Bills would need to win two playoff games to even have a chance at playing the Chiefs.
Also there is the inconvenient fact that the Bills are 1-2 against AFC playoff teams... including two ugly losses to Tennessee and the Chiefs when Josh Allen looked like garbage. When you are relying on a sweep of a crappy Faketriots team as an example of supposedly being ready to win big games then your resume is short on winning big games. |

Hmmm...interesting. I'd be curious to know how many of those posts were before, during, or after that game.

Allen releases the ball on average in 3.0 seconds this year. Mahomes average is 2.9 seconds. Last year is was 2.82 for Mahomes and 2.85 for Allen. In other words, Allen is processing and throwing within ten hundredth of a second of Mahomes. i’m taking through siri while driving so I apologize for any spelling or formatting errors. |

I'll never understand why users (old and new) during the playoffs go onto other message boards and subreddits just to post.
I'll never get it. I could give two shits about your team or any other team that isn't the Chiefs - no offense. I might be the minority, but that's just me.
