Eastern on CBS show bills at the Chiefs, the Chiefs,
the home team favored by a mere one and a half points, which
means, yeah, a neutral site, right? The bills would be
the favorite over under 54 and a half by far, the highest over
under of the week and I actually think it's going to be
over. Maybe one of my Best Bets will be the over
in bills Chiefs, because I
I think 54 and a half is a little low. That's that's
a little low. I hear you. Whoa, that's a little low and now
I'll have to commit.
I like that. I don't have to commit
regardless. We'll
we'll figure out the Best Bets later for now.
Let's do Chiefs. Have the ball bills on defense. What do you
got? Well, I just think again. Is this is a weird one here
where
and I started a little last week, you know, I think we saw
it a little and it didn't have to be necessarily all running
game or anything like that.
That. But I think to take advantage of the bills and if
you want to beat the bills defense, you have to run
the ball a
little bit. You have to,
you can't think you're going to drop back 45 or 50 times and
beat the Buffalo Bills because I just think they're too crazy
with their coverages and things. They do
McDermott's. Got people in Leslie, Frazier. They're
dropping out everywhere, you know, so that to me and again
we've seen the bills
on the defensive side of the ball. The teams they struggle
against have all had one thing in common, whether that was
the Titans, the Colts the Patriots,
they were bigger than a bug them up front and they could
run the ball on them and pressure them that way, you
know, with that aspect of the game. You saw last week
MacKinnon can run the ball and was five yards a carry. They
had some cool screens to him to,
you know, that to me is going to be a big part of
the football game. If you let McDermott and Leslie, flayger
just go. Oh, it's Kansas City throw show here and we can drop
back and play all these.
As you coverages
Kansas, he's not going to win.
They're not, they have shown that they can. They can get
guys in the right spots to stop the
every down passing play.
It's a good bills
pass rush. It is. It's, I mean, they can Rush forward and get
after the quarterback. But how,
you know, how good is it going to be against this, current
chief softens, the line? I don't know. I don't know.
That's a big question to me, too. Can they get close to
Mahomes and Company and make him feel uncomfortable? That
way,
it's a great pass protecting offensive line.
So that's the thing. I come back, two more times than not,
you know, the the last week, the bills
and against the Patriots, both times the last two times.
I played him and beat him. They played a lot of man-to-man, you
know, because they were worried about the Run game and you
could get away with that against the, the Patriots. They
have no
burners at receiver. So you're
okay. I feel good about my Corners, Levi, Wallace, and,
and Terron Johnson playing man-to-man
against these guys,
but you can't do that this week. I mean, we know that
At playing man-to-man against the Kansas City Chiefs, is
the ultimate kiss of can death. You're going to get burned.
It's going to be a bomb show. See you later.
So I get into it. And I saw Andy, Reid, run the ball
against McDermott and their first matchup in 2020 and that
helped them win at Buffalo. The weather wasn't great.
I don't trust Andy Reid to do that. But, you know, that to me
again. I don't mean to make it basic or anything like that.
I just think there has to be some semblance of that and their
game. They can't just think It's going to be the air show
with Kelsey and Hill and Mahomes and think they're going
to beat
the Chiefs this time around. I don't see that happening
Clyde Edwards. A layer is moving back toward, being able
to play fully participate. In practice on Wednesday. Jerick
McKinnon was the, the wild-card, the X-Factor for
the Chiefs, on Sunday night against the Steelers, but you're right.
They are going to have to run the ball and maybe they're
the team. It
isn't it weird to think? Yes, and it weird to think
that it's in their interests
to slow it. I think it is so little Take their time to keep
the bills from getting into the Rhythm that they were in on
Saturday night against the New England Patriots. I never
thought I would say that the Chiefs had in their best
interest to
take it easy, but for this game, maybe they do. And, and
that will be the biggest test for Andy Reed. Can he defy his
coaching DNA? Right? And try to take it slow. Not go over
the top not force it down the field. Gladly take, I
mean, full-blown West.
Offense, take your time, chunks, chunks, chunks,
keep Josh Allen on the sideline. So he is
feeling antsy and he is pressing potentially and he
never gets into that same Rhythm. You gotta bust that
Rhythm. You got to make them know, early on
and we'll get we'll get to the other side. Let's take
the other side when the bills have and I think the one thing you
got to do. It can't be easy for them. You've got to make it
hard for them early. So they understand from the get-go.
This isn't the Wild Card round. The planets lined up for you
that night. They're all out of whack tonight. So if you can
disrupt that early, maybe you have a chance. If you're
the Chiefs to outscore,
it's crazy. But I mean, I think I agree with you a little bit.
Yeah, the patient's of the Chiefs is going to be a little
bit of a key to this football game. I would agree with you
there on the offensive side of the ball, you know,
the patient's of.
Okay, fine. I'll run the ball.
Okay, fine. I'll check it down.
Okay, fine. I'll run a speed. Sweep Wilma Cole Harmon and
Tyree kill see if we can pop something that way, you know,
they did that last year and I like a big huge gain in the AFC
Championship game from a coal Hardman.
They ran for over 100 yards in the bills defense last year in
the AFC Championship game and just wasn't the traditional
way. They had a lot of lanes with the running back again
around like,
you know, over four yards, a carry
in that one. But but as
you know, I don't know. I mean, you're right. It's it always
comes down to that with any read. I don't know if they're
willing to do that and can Mahomes be patient because I'm
with you and the fact that hey the Chiefs defense is better.
I think this bills offense is on
They found their Mojo down the stretch of the football season
and Alan is on fire. And, you know, Alan is he's playing
better ball than Mahomes is right now and my home's is
playing. Good. Don't get me wrong.
But Maja Allen has become a force of nature, you know, and
I look at that and they have everything in their offense.
They're running the ball enough
and I don't worry about them. They're going to run the ball
with Josh Allen and Devils. Devon Singletary enough. Now to
where I don't question it like I did in week 10 where I went.
It just can't be Josh Allen throwing the ball
every time they've Even to me that there they got that aspect
of their offense
and Alan has it all
you want to play coverage. He'll pick you apart, be patient.
You want to be aggressive, watch the
Scout. It's going to be a laser show.
So that's where I get into this.
I think there's a hungrier team.
That's what I'd look at. I think they're hungry.
I remember Chris Jones last year, before the AFC Championship
game. They remind me of our team from a few years ago.
Well,
you're the Patriots of a few years ago,
you know, they're the Chiefs they're looking. Slay, you to
become the new Kings. I think they're going to slay them.
I think this is the week. They're going to do it. I'm going to
pick Buffalo to win on the road 34-31.
I just think they're playing a little bit better football.
They match up pretty good. And I just feel like they got
a little Edge about them right now and really want this. I'm
going with the bills Mike.
I got the bills. 4130
back to the images of Stephon digs last year
out there on the field watching the chief celebrate
their latest Lamar Hunt.
Trophy
after beating the bills in the, in the AFC Championship game,
taking it all in and
assuming he doesn't test positive for covid. Now, not
that anybody's testing positive for coveted. That's not, that's
not, that's just all coincidental that nobody's
testing positive anymore.
But
one thing that horrified me on Sunday, where the images of
Stefon Diggs at the Cowboys 49ers game maskless with
a bunch of people maskless in his face. I hope he doesn't test
positive.
It between now and Sunday night. He could be a huge
factor in this game because he's hungry. This is his
moment. This is his chance
and it was more Dawson knocks the other night with
the Superstar plays and yeah, dig still did digs things but he
didn't have huge numbers. I think he could have huge
numbers with Tyree kill on the other side.
This is Stephane digs night to let everybody know how good he
is 4138. Maybe a couple of touchdown catches forced to Van
Dyck. Yeah. Wow, so we were both feeling the same way.
Yeah. I just I look at it. And again, I like the Chiefs I
like What they do, of course, they are the Champs, you know,
it's hard to pick against them. I just look at this team going.
I think buffaloes got it right now
and yeah, just like the Bangles with Joe burrow making plays on
that defense. I just think the bills are going to be making
those type of plays on this defense to
and part of what made the difference for me. And this is
where I screwed up last week. I picked the bills to win
the Super Bowl before the season started. What the fuck
was? I thinking picking the bills to lose in the Wild Card
round. I picked them to win the Super Bowl. What's wrong with
all you?
German woman made your pasta and meatballs last week.
Several some woman named hika. Hika made your pasta and
meatballs.
