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/ |

I'm sure it's been noted before in this topic, but wasn't Tennessee last year's version of the "the team no one, including the Chiefs wants to see in the playoffs".
That turned out well. |

Well unless the Ravens DC is bluffing, he says they’ll be bringing the pressure a lot this week: https://twitter.com/aroundthenfl/sta...021585410?s=21

I'd rather the Pack just not even make it so everyone can stop sucking Rodgers' cock. Give me Rams vs Saints NFCCG and the Saints in the Super Bowl. |

Best case scenario is they’re able to beat the Bills with that pressure package, and it convinced Martindale to do it again against KC. All comes down to disguise and execution. Can you surprise Allen with a disguised blitz, and then can you execute your coverage behind the blitz AND stay disciplined and deny him rollouts to his right?

I think the Bills will struggle. I think the Ravens win.
The Bills aren't built like the Chiefs, who have a punishing TE that creates matchup problems. The Bills are basically two guys. The Ravens have the DB's take take Diggs away. Allen will be forced to find other guys quickly or take a dirt nap. Can his "Other guys" get open quickly vs the Raven's DB's? Im not so confident in that. Mahomes' "other guy" is Travis Kelce.....Allen doesn't have one of those.
