Honestly Buffalo's defense is pretty trash.

Their one win over the Chiefs was due to turnovers, it's not like they stopped the Chiefs. Pretty much the Bills would jump on a team and go up 14-0 and teams would start passing more and it made the Bills look more dominate than they actually were. The Bills lost Tre White earlier in the year and he is truely the one big playmaker they have. Their D-Line are all good players, none that are great. Their LBs (especially Edmunds) aren't good in coverage. Milano has been getting smoked by Kelce for two years. With the exception of Lamar Jackson the Bills can't stop elite QBs (also I'm being generous calling LJ elite).
Bills need to get CBs that can play man... honestly they need to figure out what they have to do to stop the Chiefs Offense. [Reply]
ESPN QBR grades tonight: Mahomes at 96/100 and Allen at 90/100. For perspective, Rodgers is getting MVP with an average of less than 70/100 on the season. Both guys played awesome tonight. Thankfully Butker’s missed FG attempts and Reid’s brainfart on 3rd and 1 did not cost KC the game. [Reply]

But somehow Allen loses to Mahomes and they still won’t say Mahomes it better. Like he’s not probably on his way to winning another SB.
Before the game they were saying Allen is better. So at least they are admitting Mahomes is equal to him right now. I'll take that as some progress. People have forgotten how special Patrick is, but maybe tonight is a little reminder for them. PFF graded him as the 12th best QB. They deserve to go into bankruptcy for a lack of credibility. Mahomes went against a better defense tonight than Allen did. Patrick was pulling insane plays out of his ass from the very first drive. [Reply]
Patrick Mahomes faced two-high safety shells on 92% of plays, the 2nd-highest rate of his career. As a result, Mahomes did not attempt a deep pass for the first full game in his career.
