There’s only one way to start an article after a game like this:
Nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills.
The bipolar nature of this season continues as the Bills offense put on a clinic against the Chiefs. This game was all about Trent Edwards, Marshawn Lynch and Leodis McKelvin. They were dominant and that’s why this game was so lopsided.However, let’s not get too excited. This was against an opponent that entered the game at 1-9 and is in a full-fledged rebuilding cycle. Much work needs to be done if this team is going to make the playoffs (more on that below). Often, in blowouts, the losing team adds points in garbage time when the winning team drops into a soft D. That was not the case today, as 24 of the Chiefs’ 31 points came before the Bills opened up a huge lead. The D was really struggling.
Still, I saw something that has been missing in Buffalo for years. With some key injuries on D (Whitner, Schobel, Bryan Scott limited to S/T), rookies stepped up (McKelvin and Corner) and the offense carried the team. Usually, when one unit struggles for Buffalo, it brings the rest of the team down. It was refreshing to see the offense come through and ensure a victory.
