Chiefs Win

Halloween is about two weeks away. And there are plenty of superstitions including black cats, ghosts, and even fear of the number 13 for some. For the Kansas City Chiefs, the number 13 brings back the warm fuzzies from last year’s miraculous win over the Buffalo Bills. 13 seconds was all that was left for Patrick Mahomes to break many hearts in Buffalo.

13 Reasons the Chiefs Beat the Bills on Sunday

That game was one for the history books and one that Bills fans would like to forget. Nevertheless, there’s a rematch on Sunday in Kansas City and America will be watching. Here are the 13 reasons why the Chiefs will win.

1. Patrick Mahomes is still under center. Josh Allen is superb but Mahomes is supernatural. He doesn’t do things by the book but the wins keep accumulating.

2. There is nothing compared to playing at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. This will be most important coming down the stretch in the fourth quarter. No way to replicate screaming rabid Chiefs fans.

3. The Chiefs possess the experience of winning a Super Bowl, and being in the AFC Championship is expected. The Bills may be the team to beat. But until the Bills win something big, the Chiefs own the upper hand here.

4. It comes from the top. Andy Reid is about as rock-stable as anyone in the history of the NFL. Much can be said about his records, wins, and Super Bowl. Be that as it may, his father-son bond with Patrick Mahomes is a sacred marriage beyond any other number of big wins.

Travis Kelce and the Chiefs Shouldn’t Be Underdogs at Home

5. One day Travis Kelce will receive the golden jacket to enter the Hall of Fame. Until then, Kelce is simply unguardable. Untouchable. Undeniably the best tight end in the game today. When a big catch is needed — it’s going to Kelce. Everyone knows it yet no one can stop it.

6. The Kansas City Chiefs are an underdog at home. Buffoonery.

7. The talk over the offseason echoed on every single media outlet doubting the Chiefs, once wide receiver Tyreek Hill left. However, the offense remains lethal, scoring over 30 points a game. Spreading it around has brought success in a different way. This is a totally different type of offense from the last meeting.

8. The Chiefs have nothing to prove. In other words, as big as the game is, the Chiefs are the team to beat until someone else knocks them off. The Bills haven’t exactly been the number two team in the AFC every year since Mahomes arrived. All eyes are on the Bills. Are they ready?

Chiefs Win the Games that Matter

9. Time of possession is something that could get overlooked. Both teams are identical in rushing attempts and yards. However, the high-octane Buffalo Bills offense looks to score points and fast. Pay attention to how the Chiefs go about their business by balancing a bit more running the ball in this game. The Chiefs are trying to manage the game, rather than get in a shootout.

10. The Chiefs get their kicker back Harrison Butker. This is an important side note since the Chiefs never found an adequate replacement in his absence. This game may come down to a kick and, in the end, Butker is as reliable as any.

11. Kansas City needs to ensure that Josh Allen doesn’t beat them with his legs. Allen is a tough runner but look for the Chiefs to keep a spy in Allen when containment breaks down. Fortunately, Kansas City faces off against Patrick Mahomes every day in practice, so they should know how to handle a mobile quarterback. Kansas City’s ability to keep Allen from scrambling and extending the play could be the difference in this one, and the Chiefs are as ready as any team could be for this challenge.

12. Arrowhead Stadium provides one of the strongest home-field advantages in football, and it’s never easy for opposing teams to handle the passion of 70,000 screaming fans. Keeping emotions in check is critical in a three-hour game, and Kansas City’s devoted fanbase could stymie a potential comeback if the Bills fall behind early.

13. The Bills will have a tough enough time communicating thanks to the loud atmosphere, which could lead to game flow issues and overall confusion. Miscommunication can lead to mistakes, such as false starts and unnecessary timeouts.

Ultimately, the Chiefs are going to win because they’ve been here before. The Bills might be the sexy pick, but look for Kansas City to earn the victory when all is said and done.
