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.
I understand you want the mods to ban me so I CAN'T come back.
I know why you don't want me back.
No you won't. Just like all the others who promise to come back but never do. You will vanish for another 10 years and reappear claiming to be a 20 year board vet. [Reply]

But, but, they went to ALL those Super Bowls back in the 90's! That's totally relevant . . . . . right? right? . . . . guys? . . . . . (crickets) [Reply]

They are going to sell out to stop the run. Hopefully Rivers shocks the world. [Reply]
So, haven't read any comments yet, but the author of the article states that the Bills forced a fumble that would have given them the chance to take the lead.
Then a couple of sentences later, he states that replay showed CEH's knee was down before the ball came out.
That means that Buffalo did NOT in fact force a fumble. At work, will read thread later, but that part just pisses me off.
