It’s do or die time for the Bills this weekend as they head to Kansas City to take on the reigning Super Bowl Champion, Chiefs. The Bills head into this matchup with just around a 20% chance of making the playoffs (depending on what site you use), but a win over the rival Chiefs will raise that percentage greatly and quite possibly give them the momentum they need to make a run at this thing.
The playoffs start Sunday for the Bills, there are no more moral victories or an “at least the offense looked better” attitude from here on out. If the Bills want to make the playoffs they have to do one thing, win. Every game is a must win. Luckily for the Bills they have a history of winning in KC, they have won there in the regular season the past two seasons and this Chiefs team does not appear to be on the same level as those Chiefs teams.
This should be the healthiest the Bills have been in weeks coming off of the bye. The injury report looks clean and the offense may even be getting, Tight End, Dawson Knox back. This could be the first time that Joe Brady has had his full stable of weapons to work with and it will be interesting to see if he uses a lot of two tight end formations.
In a week that has dealt the Bills even more adversity to overcome, let’s see if this brings the team together with an ‘us against the world’ kind of mentality. The Bills this week are a desperate team, and a desperate team is a dangerous team, a win and their playoff hopes are alive and well, a loss and it may signal the end of a disappointing season that the Bills and their fans will be looking to forget.
