The Bills played really, really well in that game. The Chiefs really ... did not.
And the things the Bills were able to be successful with agianst the Chiefs' offense - namely, lining up and running more man and being more aggressive in general - are not things that can be as successful this time around.
One, because the Chiefs' personnel is better suited for attacking man coverage now. Brown is a major difference maker there.
Two, because the Bills are unlikely to be as healthy on the back half of their defense. Taron Johnson is dinged. Binford is in the protocol - does he play? Rapp has a serious hip injury that will be painful and tough to play through (and is a guy who is maxing out his physical ability all the time, which makes it tougher to be effective when playing through pain and injury.
Three, because the healthy addition of Jaylen Watson to the Chiefs' secondary is the biggest swing in this game (and Spencer Brown and Marquise Brown are both major upgrades for these teams).
