The Bills probably would have won in Arrowhead if they could have actually sacked Mahomes the numerous times the defense was all over him in the backfield and he escaped. I imagine those would have turned into sacks against the Bengals. Mahomes escapability was just other worldly.
As an ESPN report stated after the game, the Bills defense was exhausted. At some point, the number 1 defense against the pass was on fumes. I think a lot of this was Mahomes extending the plays and having Bills defenders chasing him and the receivers for such a long time. If the Bengals can control the clock, our defense can play all four quarters, not die out like the Buffalo defense did.
Bills win rushing 2-3 guys and not 4 on the final play in OT. Beyond belief that they were more worried about putting pressure on the QB than dropping back and defending receivers and making PH at least have to look at possibly more than his first read which would have taken even more seconds off the clock.
