Most really good defenses are good up the middle. You could argue outside of Mahomes, Jones is the best player on this team. A healthy Jones in the middle with a more experienced Bolton/Gay and I like our chances. [Reply]
They're a really good team. In a just world, this is the AFCCG as these are clearly the two most talented squads in the AFC.
If we play our A game, we'll still beat them. The Bills are built to the same sort of blueprint as the Chiefs, we just have slightly better players at key positions. We have a better ballclub than Buffalo.
I just wish I had more confidence in getting that A effort, that's all. I've seen this team trip over its own feet too many times to be confident. Then again - we never lost to the Jags. So it ain't like Buffalo is immune to dick-stepping. [Reply]

This has been my issue with them all year.:-) [Reply]

Jets twice
Mr average Mac Jones himself 3X
Falcons without Julio or Ridley
Panthers
Saints with Siemian at QB and no Michael Thomas
Jags
Dolphins twice
Texans
Notice the Bucs, Titans and Colts all dropped 33 or more points on these guys.
That defense now doesn’t have their best corner. We can drop 50 on these fools
Good offenses score. It's not much different than ours where we dominated lesser QBs. I'd say the defenses are pretty even even though by stats Beefalo is number 1. We just played more legit offenses. [Reply]

Absolutely disastrous start.
I was going to mention this...KC gift wrapped a dream start for them last year and they still couldn't pull it off.
How many come from behind wins does Allen have? I dont have this data...but it's usually a good measuring stick of a QBs mental fortitude.
Performance in high pressure situations is the true barometer between elite and good.
Mahomes has been otherworldly in these types of moments.. [Reply]
