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/ |

The Bills-Rams 28-3 game was weeks ago, so by your logic, it doesn’t count anymore... |

The unraveling this morning is entertaining IMO, but just as a quick stop to point and laugh.
And FFS, everyone here is well aware of what kind of shit can happen in the playoffs, even if we're much more confident these days about it not happening to the Chiefs every damn year. We all know the Bills could beat the Chiefs, just like the Colts could beat the Bills or the Titans beat the Ravens (who were far more impressive last season than the Bills this season). And dude who clearly wasn't a Bills fan 25 years ago and maybe not 25 weeks ago is trying to educate us with stats and talking head opinions, while htis and others try talking actual match ups. But yeah, after a while of toying around, anyone neck deep in should just Thread Tools >> Ignore... the circular arguments and what not that will all play out in a matter of days anyway get old pretty quickly around here, since these trolls are a dime a dozen. |

This thread has convinced me to root against the Bills no matter what.

The Colts' defense is pretty good. They're running the ball extremely well. Buffalo can't stop the run, as we saw firsthand. Colts 24-17.

All media outlets have articles like that up because it's more fun and better to overall fans to not say "Chiefs got this" that's boring to average fan.

I think the Bills are absolutely on fire right now, but I don't know why we're going to have a 1000 post thread about a team that is going to have to win 2 games just to get to us.
To be fair we need to take care of business too, but the Bills have to win two games and play a seasoned team this week. |
