Jeremy and Joe explain ask what a good defensive performance against the Chiefs looks like, and why they believe the Bills have a chance to make it happen.
Transcript
00:00Wouldn't you want to bet on this is going to be their best defensive performance against
00:04the Chiefs in the playoffs this Sunday?
00:06Almost I want to say regardless of who plays.
00:08Well, this is like anything with football especially.
00:13What does best mean?
00:14Fewest points per drive?
00:16Lowest point total overall?
00:18Both.
00:19Because last year was a lower point total, but I think it was a higher points per drive,
00:25right?
00:26But why did that happen?
00:27Because you had your fifth string linebackers in there that couldn't cover anything.
00:32And the playoff meeting before that was a different Chiefs offense.
00:36That's Tyreek Hill and that's 5,000 yard Mahomes.
00:40That's a very different look.
00:41So I might make it as much about the Chiefs offense as I would about the Bills defense.
00:46The Bills are healthier on defense this year than last year, and that's even if they were
00:50to be missing a guy or two.
00:54The previous playoff meetings were completely different Chiefs offenses.
00:59Completely different.
01:00Last year they forced one punt.
01:03I think they do better than that.
01:04I'd want to bet on they do better than that.
01:07Have the Chiefs had a game all year where they've only had one punt?
01:11Does it matter?
01:12Well, nothing seems to matter when you play the Chiefs.
01:16None of it matters.
01:17They get eight punts and they're still going to win somehow.
01:20Of course we have to put in the context of, I hope their defensive backs and their linebackers
01:24are healthy.
01:26When do we freak out?
01:29This is where like...
01:30If Milano's not available, you don't need him because Dorian Williams is okay?
01:34I don't want to make it sound too much like that because Milano has been awesome I think
01:37in the last three, four games.
01:39But if we're comparing it, if I'm comparing it to their last playoff meeting, yes.
01:44Tyrell Bernard and Dorian Williams is far better than AJ Cline and Tyrell Dodson who
01:50was playing with an injury was what they had last year.
01:54So I think it'll be better than that.
01:56That's about as bad as you can do.
01:58It's not all the same.
02:00It's not within a vacuum.
02:02Sure, Dorian Williams could still get abused by Travis Kelsey beginning to end, even though
02:06it's not AJ Cline.
02:08But I just would have more confidence.
02:09I would have less confidence in Kelsey in that spot too.
02:13Even though he just had a huge game against Houston, he does not look like he used to
02:16look.
02:17Chiefs had two punts last week against the Texans.
02:21Two punts against the Texans, okay.
02:22Also, did they take a safety?
02:25That was on purpose.
02:26Intentionally.
02:27That was on purpose.
