00:00We know that Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills have the talent to knock off Kansas City, right?

00:05They've done it during the regular season. We talk about that time and time again.

00:09First meeting where Josh Allen rushes for 56 yards. He scores the game and go ahead touchdown

00:15at home to win that ballgame by nine points. But can he do it? Can he duplicate that type

00:21of productivity on the road against one of the best defenses in the AFC? And can this team overcome

00:27all of the obstacles and roadblocks that have been just been in their way over the past four or

00:34five seasons against Kansas City? That's a mental thing, right? We know they have the talent, Kev.

00:40Can they do it from the mental aspect and now overcoming and forcing turnovers on the road?

00:46That remains to be seen. But I'm still backing, in my opinion, the better team with the better

00:50quarterback at home in Pat Mahomes. And that's why I give the slight edge to Kansas City.

00:56If this line was what we saw maybe potentially with Houston four and a half, five, right? In

01:01terms of that matchup, the first time that they played, I might say, yeah, Buffalo's live. But

01:06we're talking about a basically pick-em game, Donnie. Have to go with the Kansas City Chiefs.

01:11Yeah, you're right. And that's certainly the MO that I'm taking. But understand this too,

01:15like that is a lot of respect. If you're just, forget about where the tickets are going,

01:18which I'm going to explain in just a few moments. If you just look at that line,

01:20Stone Cold Buffalo Bills line, a ton of respect, basically saying we're going to Kansas City,

01:25the house that Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes built multiple Super Bowl champions and were

01:29probably expected to win this football game, as opposed to five and a half, six and a half,

01:33seven and a half, where you're hoping to hang around like last week we saw out of the Houston

01:36Texans. But understand this, this is what's baffling. Just tracking around 190,000 tickets

01:42that have come in in this football game, 25% of the spread bets coming in on Kansas City.

01:47It's unbelievable. But also keep in mind that opening line was one and a half. We now see

01:51twos creeping in there. But if you're getting an overwhelming number of tickets coming in on

01:55the Buffalo Bills side, and that's not pushing that, let's just say, into a favorite status for

01:59the Buffalo Bills, that's eye opener number one. But for me, you're going to get the conditions

02:03out there in Kansas City, 30 degrees, no wind, no precipitation. I love that because best man

02:09is going to win this football game. And Joe points out it is right. Regular season seems like Buffalo

02:14says, you know, let our hair down. We could beat this team. Once you get to the postseason,

02:17it's completely different. And Kevin, how about this? Hey man, just wish Buffalo could finally

02:21get him at home. No, you had him at home last year and you lost that game. So no excuses for

02:25the Buffalo Bills if they don't get it done today. Yeah, I think the one thing for me when it comes

02:31to the number is like the best thing about Buffalo beating Baltimore was avoiding the,

02:38can you believe the Chiefs are home dogs? Of course they're home dogs. Baltimore was just

02:45a favorite at Buffalo. What are you talking about? So we look at this number. Of course,

02:50it's not a field goal. Of course it's not. What are we talking about? Kansas City doesn't cover

02:56the two and a half teams and not cover, but win. It's the Chiefs. Them winning last week and

03:01covering was a miracle. It was an absolute miracle. They were lucky to win the game.

03:06They managed to cover for some. I know for others they didn't with the safety, but about whatever,

03:11like this is the Chiefs. They have not separated on anybody. Again, you can tip your cap and you

03:17both are, and I get it to their ability to win games, but you can't actually think under any

03:23circumstances that this number should be really higher than it is for what? Because it would be

03:28more difficult than for you to pick against Casey. I don't, if this was a field goal number,

03:33it would just be Bill's bets exclusively. Typically when these teams meet, they play

03:38closer football games. We know that to be true. So I just, what else would this number be?

03:45Would never be four and a half. That's insane.
