Oh, no!

Yeah, I heard one of the Chiefs podcast guys going on and on about how slow the Bills secondary was...
...and then start talking about how critical it will be to pound them with Kareem Hunt.
Why? I'd come out in Eleven personnel, put Thuney out there on an island, spread the field and sling the ****ing ball. For at least the first 15.
See if it works. And if it does, just go scorched earth on 'em.
Make them show you they can slow down the passing game first. There's no reason at all to 'establish the run' in this game with their aging coverage backer and slow DBs. Attack them.
If it doesn't work, you've got 3 quarters and the best 'comeback' QB in NFL playoff history. But man, if it does work, this game could be over by halftime.
I'd rather see us try to force this thing into a track meet. Make Allen get aggressive. Make Shakir beat McDuffie. Make Coleman or Cooper actually produce - they haven't in 6 weeks.
Make them WIN it.
Because I don't think they can.
