If we want a guy that's just gonna limit turnovers and not have explosives, Alex Smith is probably hanging around.

How ****ing dare you?

Sean McDermott is statistically the second most aggressive coach in the NFL (behind Dan Campbell). They will definitely not hesitate to go for it on fourth down- wouldn’t be surprised by a fake punt or kick either.

Meanwhile in that same situation on 3rd down…

16/25 for 177 and a TD ain't cutting it this weeken.

Force the Bills to beat the Chiefs with Josh Allen contained in the pocket having to rely on his WR’s.

Take away Cook and their TE’s in the passing game.

They’d probably cut it against the numbers Allen put up a day later, tbh.

Probably not but you never know if there's turnovers, special teams mistakes, etc. If we can run the ball, that will also help though I doubt Andy wants to attack that way even if it works.

But yes, Buffalo will probably score more than the 12 points Houston scored.

The fake punt didn't work out well for them last year. I'm not saying they wouldn't try, but they know that the Chiefs already know they'd be willing.

With the OL being the way it is, this just may be the way they've gotta win games though.

I don't remember the last offensive game where we were just in high gear for a whole game?

Hasn't happened this year.

Lots of reasons for it, I guess. But I feel like those reasons have been resolved -- we have the weapons now. We have a LT "Pat trusts". We have a complementary running game.

We have no reason to keep a governor on the offense anymore if Andy is indeed "Saving the good plays"

Every justification for our scattershot offense should be gone this week. We have no reason for this offense not to put up 30+. And frankly, even 'if we need it' shouldn't be a real consideration.

Assume we will. Come out of the gates presuming you're going to get 9 possessions and in those 9 possessions you'll get 4 TDs and a FG.

That gives you a little margin for error -- you can have 4 drives fail and still hit your numbers.

But you have to execute in the red zone and you have to come out sharper than we have on occasion.

Just do what your talent and experience says you can do.

Didn't happen last year either.

Maybe the 22 Bucs game?

I dunno. They win. They always win so it sounds like just bitching to bitch, but the offense just has sputtered and puttered alot.

Then again, 100% of Bills fans would have said there's zero chance 16/22, 127, 0 passing TDs, and 20 yards rushing would get it done against the Ravens.

The Bills tried their hardest last season to limit possessions and the Texans last weelend took up almost the entire freakin' 3rd quarter on one drive... some of it is a chess match of whether you really want to try getting into a shootout with Josh Allen.

I get the basic point though... I was hyped up last weekend to FINALLY see the offense we should have been watching all season, then I'm grumbling under my breath when it's 6-3.

Anybody else concerned with the discourse of the officiating impacting this week's game?

Hopefully they just let em play and avoid the flags altogether.

I think it's more likely that they just stay away from subjective calls at a much higher rate than it is they hammer one team particularly hard.

Ok, but to that point "they had it the whole 3rd quarter"......yes. But they whole first half when we were bumble ****ing around......I dunno.

I don't think there's a "they're saving the good plays" thing here. The offense just hasn't been in rhythm

Not really.

Worst case, the refs won't be swayed by public opinion, especially not the emotion-driven garbage we are seeing now.

Best case, the Chiefs are paying the refs and we win going away.

:D
