00:00And I'm going to start the AFC championship game.

00:02I was talking already a little bit on the show

00:04about what I think would be surprising for some people.

00:07Because kind of the public perception,

00:08Kansas City sends out that injury report.

00:11Nobody's on it.

00:12So we're hearing, whoa, this seems so healthy.

00:15I've been trying to let people know sixscore.com believes

00:17the healthier team is the Buffalo Bills.

00:20What have you guys seen heading into this game between Kansas

00:23City and Buffalo?

00:25Yeah, there's no question.

00:27Buffalo's the healthiest team remaining.

00:29The Chiefs have been on the rise, no question.

00:32And you're right, they don't have any current players that

00:35are on there, but they have had their share of injuries.

00:37We knew about Taylor Rapp not making it

00:39all along for the Buffalo Bills.

00:41Everyone else is going to be OK there, Buffalo.

00:45Matt Milano is the only mild concern going

00:47sideline to sideline there.

00:49But the offensive line and the shuffle

00:52on the Chiefs' offensive line is the biggest concern

00:56in that game for us.

00:58Now, the interesting thing, though, again,

01:00not because that's just not been the perception heading

01:03into that football game, maybe a similar situation

01:07with Philadelphia and Washington.

01:09A lot of talk around Jalen Hurts specifically.

01:13But I go to sixscore.com, and I see the healthier team.

01:15But once again, is it the Philadelphia Eagles here,

01:19not the Washington Commanders?

01:22Yeah, that's the conversation, Jalen Hurts.

01:24There's no question that his left knee is injured.

01:28There is no question that he's playing today.

01:32Can he be effective?

01:33He can.

01:34Can he run the ball?

01:35He can.

01:36Is he going to cut, twist, and do everything that he can do?

01:40Probably not.

01:41Are there going to be as many RPOs?

01:43Maybe not.

01:45But they still have a lot more.

01:47In the playoff football, games are usually won and lost

01:50in the trenches.

01:51And the Washington Commanders lost their best lineman,

01:54Sam Cosby, with an ACL and MCL tear.

01:57We've been saying it at SportsCenter Central all week.

02:00The defensive line for Washington is hampered.

02:03The secondary has not been great all season.

02:05This is the defensive line.

02:07We said De'Ron Payne, not doing well.

02:09And now he's out, and Jonathan Allen playing,

02:12but still not 100% off that pack.

02:14So based on the trenches, yes, the Eagles

02:18are the healthier side.
