If this is truly Buffalo's Super Bowl, they will have a major letdown against Baltimore next week.

Which team is more likely to choke?

I mean, someone has to win. So one choke artist will be able to walk around for a year with people thinking they're not choke artists.

Until the the following playoffs.

The math on that doesn't add up. No, more likely, KC wins this game and another SB.

The defense let KC down in that game. They were riding an 11 game win streak against weaker opponents. They were never beating the Patriots in NE. If Vontaz Burfict doesn't lay out Antonio Brown, the Chiefs would have played the Broncos instead of NE in the Divisional Round. We spanked the Broncos two months prior and caused Manning to be benched (regardless of what Denver's coaches said). Still, it was a successful year for the Chiefs. Came back from 1-5 to win ten straight and then ended the playoff losing streak. I wasn't too upset after the Patriots loss.

I've been thinking that, too... do they have strong enough leadership on that team to refocus on the Ravens. They could talk after the game all they want about "it's not the ultimate goal" and so forth, but it would be an issue for most teams.

If they can overcome it though, I'd say they're pretty damn dangerous as a team that would play loose on house money.

PM II will quiet that shite.

I'm ready for the game to start. They've got some warmup game on now, so I've got it on in the background.

Ouch! ROFL

Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney ruled out, which could be bad news for Bills

Usually, heading into a playoff matchup shorthanded is a significant disadvantage. However, in the case of the Kansas City Chiefs and wideout Kadarius Toney, it may be addition by subtraction while potentially spelling doom for the Buffalo Bills.

Roughly 24 hours before the two sides battle for a spot in the AFC title game, the Chiefs ruled Toney out with hip and ankle injuries.

Without Toney, quarterback Patrick Mahomes will be without one less target, but his absence has been a good thing recently.

his season, the Chiefs are 4-1 without Toney and have won three straight, including a 26-7 win over the Miami Dolphins in the wild-card round.

Furthermore, first-year WR Rashee Rice has taken advantage of the extra snaps without Toney, emerging as a dangerous weapon and one of Mahomes' favorite targets next to tight end Travis Kelce.

Rice was inactive for the Chiefs Week 18 season finale, but in the other four games Toney missed, the former second-round pick flashed No. 1 receiver potential, averaging seven catches and 105 yards with two scores.

As for worries that Mahomes hones in on Kelce and Rice too much, especially sans Toney, the offense hasn't missed a beat, averaging 22 points with and without him.

The much-maligned pass-catcher has had a rough year. On top of potentially costing the Chiefs a victory the last time they met the Bills following his offside blunder, head coach Andy Reid benched him a week later against the New England Patriots after a juggled catch attempt ended up in the opponent's hands.

Along with drops and mental errors, Toney has done himself no favors with his production, or lack thereof.

Since being acquired in a trade with the New York Giants for two draft picks, Toney has been underwhelming at best. However, this season he's seen a decided decline.

Toney has only 27 receptions and one touchdown, setting career-low marks in receiving yards (169), yards per reception (6.3), catch success rate (44.7) and yards per game (13), despite playing 13 games, the most over his three seasons in the NFL.

Very possible.

Funny little update for those familiar with my beer dilemma.

I make the trip out just now to grab Boulevard in this Illinois town. I find the perfect store that even has a neon Boulevard sign hanging up.

I go in, grab the precious Tank 7, and I’m of course sporting one of my classic Chiefs hoodies.

Only one other customer in the entire store. The mother****er has a Bills hoodie on.

No friendly exchanges, no words at all in fact. We both know our role here and we both know that SOB is about to get throat****ed again by Mahomeboy.

probably a repost but the chiefs are playing the bills on nfl network

Not very often you get a chance at KC +$ before kick off.

Mahomes.
