00:00and the Chiefs are set to try and do something that's never been done before.

00:04You know, one thing that I do want to mention, it was sort of bizarre last night during the broadcast

00:09that Jim Nance kept mentioning Pat Riley and the three-peat. Like, what, you can't say three-peat?

00:14I mean, I just did twice. Like, I did not understand what was going on there at the end of the game.

00:19The Chiefs are trying to get the three-peat. Do we get fined for that? I don't get it.

00:24What will happen after that? Do they, can they not make shirts or something?

00:27I don't understand the whole thing, what was going on. It was so weird yesterday.

00:30But needless to say, that was the epic performance. Honestly, from both teams,

00:35it could have gone either way. You know, Kincaid catches the ball, Buffalo kicks the field goal,

00:38who knows? I was not happy with the outcome, honestly. I really wanted to see Buffalo and

00:43some new blood in the Super Bowl, but getting the Chiefs there is probably the second best option.

00:49Yeah, I mean, it was right there for the Bills. I mean, they complained more about the calls,

00:52but who doesn't these days against the Chiefs, right? Calls that they didn't get. But the game

00:58was right there for the taking. I mean, they held the Chiefs to a field goal, got the sack they

01:03needed, the ball was in Josh Allen's hands, everything was right there to move down the

01:08field and at least tie the game, right? And they didn't do it. So, I mean, they had their

01:12opportunities. I mean, you have to credit the Chiefs defense for stepping up at certain points.

01:16They really contained Josh Allen as a runner. I mean, they were fortunate he didn't lose that

01:21fumble on the drive where they were stopped on fourth down later. So, some breaks went against

01:25the Chiefs, but in the end, they didn't complain. They just turned around, executed what they needed

01:30to do. And look, you can look at the calls and things, bang, bang on either side. Clearly,

01:36there were some misses on both sides, but it happens in every playoff game. But what I was

01:40most impressed with, Patrick Mahomes was in complete control. This is the first time all

01:44season that they'd scored more than 30 points in a game. And they did it on the biggest stage,

01:50because Mahomes was all over this. I mean, he knew he had to take off and run. First time he's

01:54ever had two rushing touchdowns in a game. I mean, he just realized the moment a little bit more

02:00than Josh Allen and made those plays that counted where Allen could not execute. And look,

02:04it just comes down to that. You can look at Lamar Jackson versus Josh Allen,

02:08and they were plays and less mistakes. You can look at Patrick Mahomes versus Josh Allen.

02:13Sometimes it just comes down to the other guys better. And with Mahomes, he's just been better

02:18than everybody else for a good three seasons now. Yeah, I just can't see how anybody could

02:24have anything to complain with, with the exception maybe of that one call. You're right, it was close.

02:28But those things happen in the course of the NFL games. Mahomes' props, in fact, were really close

02:34as far as the passing touchdown and the passing yards. He did rush for 46 yards, so he flew over

02:38that one and did rush for two touchdowns as well. Buffalo, as far as Josh Allen is concerned,

02:44I guess he seemed pretty defeated, honestly, Vinny. And I guess I would feel that way,

02:49too, if I was in that spot. Is there something the Bills can do next year to get over the hump?

02:55It feels like no. As long as the Chiefs are just the Chiefs and are winning enough games to play

03:00in their home stadium, then the Chiefs are probably going to beat the Bills again next year or

03:06somebody else. I mean, it's as close to a dynasty as I've seen since, I guess, the Patriots, right?

03:13Yeah, I mean, it actually could be better than the Patriots in the end because I don't see any

03:16signs of these guys slowing down. I mean, you could see Travis Gelske retired. Andy Reid might

03:22want to get off this run here, but I don't see it happening in the immediate future right now. So

03:28when you look at the Chiefs, I think, again, their execution is staying one step ahead of

03:32the opponents. They seem to know what they're doing. They were well-prepared for Josh Allen

03:36running. It was just not a fluke that they were able to stop them in some key situations. They

03:41were prepared for that, and they did a good job knowing what the Bills had to do to win the game.

03:48They were okay sometimes if those things broke through, like the big plays to Matt Hollins,

03:52knowing that you're going to give up something in a game. Just don't give up the things that

03:56are going to totally break your back. I think the Bills struggled with that. They gave a big return.

04:02They gave up some big plays. They had the injury early to Christian Benford. That was it. I mean,

04:06they just picked on that matchup all game long. Maybe another thing is don't help the Chiefs get

04:12a speedy wide receiver in the first round of the draft. They can come back to burn you in a game,

04:17and that's what the Bills did back in April. Don't let them have the draft pick they want. Don't make

04:22a trade with them because it's going to come back to bite you, and Xavier Worthy certainly

04:26did that this game.
