Chiefs vs Bills Review

Bottom line of this game, Kansas City won, moved to 6-3 on the season and hold the #1 wild card spot and are only one game behind Denver for the lead. I expected a defensive battle and actually predicted the Chiefs to win this game 17-13, however the game did not unfold the way I expected it to.

The Chiefs defense was not dominate like they had been in the past few games, they gave up 253 passing yards on the day and the Bills averaged 5 yards per rush. The pass rush was not that great either and the Chief's were only able to get one sack on Orton by Poe, coming in to the game Houston was averaging more than one sack a game. However the defense did one thing they had not done all season; caused turnovers, three of them and two of them were game changing. To start the second half the Buffalo had the ball and were driving already up 10-3. Brown was rushing towards the end zone to give Buffalo a 17-3 lead and score the first rushing touchdown against the Chiefs on the year, when the Chiefs forced the fumble and the ball went out of the end zone for a touch back.This turnover took a sure 7 points off the board for Buffalo. The second came on a 4th quarter punt return when McKelvin fumbled and the Chiefs recovered it on the Bills 26 and two plays later Alex Smith had run the ball in for an 8 yard touchdown. Without these two turnovers the Chiefs would not have won this game.
