Yep, that was my point.

Edzackary! Thank you for making my point.

So who spies Allen? Chenal? Conner?

I distinctly remember everyone moaning about Spags NOT putting a spy on Allen in that game. Hopefully the great man has something up his sleeve. Josh got lauded for that performance but the reality is he was 27/40 passing for 262 yards, 1 TD and 1 int. Pat got criticisized but he did throw three TD's. What's interesting is Pat never had ANY rushing yards in that game which is shocking. Expect that to change next sunday. Jackson, Nix and even Maye have ran on that defense in recent games. And so did Stroud and Murray among others.

Lastly this might not matter much but do ya'll know the last time Buffalo's starters played on the road? DECEMBER 15TH!!. Do ya'll know the last time they played on the road that wasn't in a dome? OCTOBER 27TH in Seattle. So they've either played at home or in a dome for the last two months. It will be a different story on Sunday.

As long as it isn't Bolton.

I'm hurt.

Refs will not let us lose.

Yeah, after watching Stroud blow past him like a traffic cone, I'm not sure how we can even occasionally as Bolton to spy Allen.

I still say that I wouldn't spy Allen, at least not in the 1st half. The spy gives him too much time to think and survey.

Make him tuck and run. Send a genuine gap rush rather than the mush rush and play more zone on the back end so your DBs can come downhill if he breaks out and blast him.

Just make him earn every yard he goes for. And in the process you'll be able to stop Cook before he can get his legs moving because you have your DL coming downhill.

Now maybe in the 2nd half you look to mix things up and put a spy on him.

But in the 1st half, I wouldn't spy him.

Hearts and minds.

At some point Allen & the Bills are going to knock of Pat + Andy. I believe Allen is that talented and has historically stepped up in the playoffs and played some of his best football.

It's obviously possible that is Sunday... but I'm not sure it's very likely. Sunday is the Super Bowl, IMO. I can't see either NFC team hanging with the Bills or Chiefs. I'm ready for an Andy/Spags kitchen sink game and Patrick to play his cleanest game of the season. That and the home crowd are enough. Chiefs come out hot offensively and Buffalo keeps pace early, but fizzles in the end as the defense dials it up late.

Chiefs 30 Bills 23

do some research... It's tradition... so yes, go drink antifreeze. Consider it a term of endearment if you actually are not an insufferable prick.

It’s likely Tranquill if they put a spy on Allen, which is honestly something that makes me miss Willie Gay more than anything else.

Yeah - Tranquill's every bit the problem trying to spy Allen as Bolton is. He's not explosive at this stage of his career and can very easily be run over anyway. Chenal won't be a ton better because he doesn't have the lateral agility. Allen can pretty easily throw the brakes on and get around Leo.

The only guy we've had over the years with the size, speed, agility and aggression to really be a good matchup for Allen was Gay.

Everyone else is missing something.
