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.

Yeah he always seems to find a way to screw up when it's a big game.
The only difference is he seems to be behind a great OL and doesn't seem to get as rattled as much as in the past. But I have only watched 3 Colts games this year so I may be wrong. [Reply]
Bills fan should worry about Indy & possibly Baltimore before thinking about the Chiefs.
Same thing happened to the Ravens last year & look what it got them.
I believe the Ravens are the scariest team for the Chiefs. They appear to be more focused this season & the playoff failures the last two seasons. [Reply]

You have no claim.
Says the guy who was joined 10 years ago but was absent all those years until the Bills got good this year. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. [Reply]

Physically he's close to washed. But he still sees the field well and throws with great anticipation. Using play-action he will get easy shots at WR's like TY Hilton and Pittman in the middle of the field. [Reply]

If you look at what Ballard has assembled in Indy (-the QB) the roster is LOADED with young, cheap talent. They have DL that can play, speed at linebacker, and talent in the secondary.
Both teams should be able to score and move the ball, although because it is the playoffs I expect the pace to be slower than the Buf/LAR game.
Jonathan Taylor has been smoking hot the last 5 games too. [Reply]
They're not winning on defense, Iron man, the track meet, MVP. Offense feels kinda pussy so let's light a cigarette and put it between our forearms! Tuff [Reply]

It was Miami.
Miami was #1 in scoring defense.
Bills dropped 56 on them.
You mentioned the Rams. Another good defense.
Bills dropped 35 on them.
Bills are 6-0 against top-10 scoring defenses this year.
6-1
Somebody mentioned that the Chiefs were #6 before that meaningless game against the Chargers that the Chiefs 3rd stringers let them score a bunch. [Reply]

Why though? KC has beaten them three times in a row and the last two were not really close. The Chiefs are a horrible matchup for them. Plus their win streak is fools gold. Four wins against teams picking in the Top 11 with two being in the Top 5 (Jacksonville #1). Before that they were on the outside looking in at 6-5. Cleveland who barely made it into the playoffs is their "signature win". If I were the Jets I might be scared of them. [Reply]
