Always the fun-loving guy, he <a href="https://x.com/TyDunne/status/1985165430244155551" rel="noopener">made a hilarious admission</a> about his physical state after such a grueling battle.</p><p>“My heart is probably 100 years old. I’m super happy. Got to go get in the cold tub. My body’s feeling like a frickin’ old man, which I am,” said the 30-year-old veteran, as quoted by NFL reporter Tyler Dunne.</p><p>Any cold tub companies in New York willing to sponsor a self-proclaimed fossil?

Mahomes finished with a career-worst 44.1% completion rate after going 15-of-34 for 250 yards and one interception.

Winners of five of their last six, teh Chiefs seemed poised to reassert their dominance over the AFC in a marquee showdown with the Buffalo Bills. Instead, they walked away from Highmark Stadium bruised, humbled, and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-josh-allen-new-nfl-record-week-9-vs-chiefs">searching for answers after a 28-21 loss</a> that exposed the same flaws that have plagued them all season.</p><h2><b>Frustrating night</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Chiefs-Patrick-Mahomes-reveals-how-he-moved-on-from-early-MNF-interceptions.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Chiefs’ offense sputtered from the outset. Star QB Patrick Mahomes completed just 15 of 34 passes and failed to throw a touchdown for the first time in nearly a year. The Bills’ defense was led by a ferocious front anchored by Joey Bosa and Greg Rousseau. They kept Kansas City off balance all afternoon. On the other side, Josh Allen orchestrated a masterclass in control. He accounted for three total touchdowns while running back James Cook gashed the Chiefs for 114 yards on the ground.</p><p>Despite a late rally that briefly offered hope, Kansas City <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-news-fans-react-wild-ending-chief-bills-week-9">couldn’t complete the comeback</a>. A potential game-tying field goal miss by Buffalo opened the door. However, Mahomes’ final Hail Mary fell incomplete as time expired. The loss dropped the Chiefs to 5-4 and marked their <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-josh-allen-own-patrick-mahomes-chiefs-regular-season">fifth straight regular-season defeat to Buffalo</a>. Sure, the Chiefs usually flip the script in the postseason, but this is still a worrying trend.</p><p>Here we’ll try to look at and discuss the Kansas City Chiefs most to blame for <a href="https://www.espn.ph/nfl/boxscore/_/gameId/401772768">their crushing loss to the Buffalo Bills</a> in Week 9.</p><h2><b>Patrick Mahomes’ worst outing of the season</b></h2><p>Mahomes has built his reputation on poise, precision, and playmaking when the lights are brightest. On Sunday, though, he was none of those things. The Chiefs’ opening three-and-out set the tone for a disjointed offensive effort that never found rhythm.</p><p>Mahomes tallied a paltry 46.7 percent completion rate. That’s the lowest of his career. He finished with 186 yards and one interception. He was also sacked three times and hit nine more. Mahomes often hurried into off-platform throws that missed their marks. His timing with receivers like Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice was off all night.</p><p>It wasn’t just Buffalo’s defense that disrupted Mahomes. It was also Kansas City’s own lack of structure. Too often, plays broke down into chaotic scrambles. This forced Mahomes to improvise rather than operate within Andy Reid’s system. On a pivotal fourth-down play in the third quarter, he missed an open Rice in the flat. Instead, he opted for a deep shot that sailed incomplete. That sequence summed up his night: forcing big plays when the situation demanded calm execution. Mahomes’ greatness isn’t in question, but his frustration was palpable.</p><h2><b>Ground game abandoned too early</b></h2><p>With star running back Isiah Pacheco sidelined, Kansas City turned to Kareem Hunt and Brashard Smith to carry the load. Early on, it seemed to work. Hunt ripped off several chunk gains. He finished with 49 rushing yards and a touchdown. The Chiefs’ first score even came from a trick play. It was a wildcat snap to Rashee Rice, who ran it in from three yards out.</p><p>Yet, as the game wore on, Kansas City inexplicably moved away from what was working. Instead of maintaining balance, they leaned heavily on Mahomes’ arm even as Buffalo’s defensive line teed off on passing downs. The decision was especially baffling in short-yardage situations. Late in the second quarter, with the ball at the 1-yard line and a chance to tie, Reid opted for a pass play that fell incomplete instead of handing it off.</p><p>The Chiefs’ inability to commit to the run allowed Buffalo to dictate tempo. Without Pacheco’s punishing style, the offense lacked bite. As the Bills’ lead grew, the Chiefs’ running game vanished entirely.</p><h2><b>Defense struggles to contain Josh Allen and company</b></h2><p>Kansas City’s defense was one of the league’s best through eight weeks. Here, however, it was completely outclassed by Josh Allen’s precision and Buffalo’s game plan. The Bills’ quarterback dissected the Chiefs with surgical efficiency. He completed 23 of 26 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns through the air while adding one more on the ground.</p><p>The Chiefs had no answer for Buffalo’s tight ends. Dalton Kincaid torched them for 23-yard and 16-yard receptions. These included a wide-open touchdown where linebacker Drue Tranquill slipped in coverage. Buffalo repeatedly exploited mismatches across the middle, where Kansas City’s linebackers and safeties looked a step slow.</p><p>Even the usually dominant front seven faltered. The Chiefs did generate consecutive sacks from Trent McDuffie and Leo Chenal late in the game, but it was too little, too late.</p><p>This wasn’t just about one or two breakdowns. It was systemic. Poor communication, missed tackles, and a lack of containment turned what should have been manageable drives into scoring opportunities. Against Allen, that’s a death sentence.</p><h2><b>Play-calling and preparation fall under scrutiny</b></h2><p>Andy Reid and offensive coordinator Matt Nagy have long been praised for their creativity. Sundaym, though, was not their finest hour. The Chiefs looked unprepared for Buffalo’s blitz packages. They failed to adjust protections and rarely used quick-hitting plays to counter pressure. Instead, long-developing routes left Mahomes exposed and receivers out of sync.</p><p>Defensively, Steve Spagnuolo’s unit came out flat and reactive. They failed to disguise coverages or apply consistent pressure. The Bills seemed a step ahead on nearly every snap.</p><p>Coaching alone didn’t lose this game, but it didn’t help either. The Chiefs’ lack of in-game adjustments mirrored their loss to Baltimore earlier this season. This was another instance where a slow start and conservative approach proved costly.</p><h2><b>Cracks in the armor are widening</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Patrick-Mahomes-of-the-Kansas-City-Chiefs-2.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Chiefs have long lived on the edge. They have relied on Mahomes’ brilliance and Reid’s ingenuity to overcome flaws. This Week 9 loss to the Bills, however, revealed that this version of the Chiefs doesn’t have the same margin for error.</p><p>Mahomes looked mortal, the run game lacked identity, and the defense was bullied. Injuries and inconsistency are part of the story. Accountability, though, starts at the top. If the Chiefs want to make another deep postseason run, they must quickly rediscover balance, execution, and discipline.</p><p>For now, Buffalo remains Kansas City’s regular-season kryptonite. That said, more concerning is that the Chiefs’ biggest threat might not be another AFC powerhouse. It might be themselves.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, <a href="https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1985155299376808345" rel="noopener">the win came at a price</a>, with Buffalo defensive end Michael Hoecht suffering a serious injury, as reported by Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network after the contest.</p><p>“Bills DE Michael Hoecht tore his Achilles tonight, coach Sean McDermott announced. A frustrating short season for Hoecht,” Rapoport shared in a social media post on X, formerly Twitter.</p><p>Hoecht went down in the fourth quarter of the Chiefs game on a non-contact play. He was later ruled out for the rest of the contest, and now it seems that the 28-year-old defensive player will be sidelined for an extended period, based on the nature of his injury.</p><p>Hoecht, who is in his first season with the Bills after spending the previous four years with the Los Angeles Rams, left the contest versus the Chiefs with two total tackles (one solo) to go with 0.5 sacks and a quarterback hit. On the season, Hoecht has two sacks and a forced fumble.</p><p>This is a tough development for Hoecht, who was just two games into his return to action when he suffered the injury. He was declared eligible to return to action in October after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-2-free-agent-additions-ped-suspensions">serving a six-game suspension due to performance-enhancing drug violation</a>. In his first game back from the suspension, he made an impact right away for Buffalo’s defense, recording 1.5 sacks to go with three total tackles with a forced fumble in a 40-9 Bills demolition of the Carolina Panthers on the road in Charlotte in Week 8.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He went 23-of-26 for 273 yards with a touchdown and added two more on the ground, powering Buffalo to a 28–13 <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-news-fans-react-wild-ending-chief-bills-week-9">lead that held through a nervy fourth quarter</a>. Tight end Dalton Kincaid stacked six catches for 101 yards and a score, while James Cook churned out 114 rushing yards. The box score backs it up: Buffalo outpaced Kansas City in efficiency and leaned on situational defense to close.  </p><p>This is what regular-season control looks like. Since 2021, Buffalo has solved most of Kansas City’s answers from September to December, disguised pressures, a steady run game, and Allen’s battering-ram scrambles at key moments. Even the history books joined in as <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-josh-allen-new-nfl-record-week-9-vs-chiefs">Allen’s outing pushed him to the </a><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-josh-allen-new-nfl-record-week-9-vs-chiefs">most games with a pass TD</a> and rush TD (47) in NFL history.  </p><p>And yet, you can’t talk Bills–Chiefs without the January caveat. The postseason leans red. Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs have eliminated Buffalo four straight times: the 2020 AFC Championship Game, the 2021 Divisional classic, the 2023 Divisional round, and last season’s 32–29 AFC title game. The broader series says the same thing, Kansas City leads the postseason head-to-head, and that’s the scoreboard Buffalo still has to change.  </p><p>So where does Sunday fit? It keeps the Bills in the AFC hunt and reinforces the same truth. In the regular season, Buffalo looks like Kansas City’s toughest matchup. Allen controls tempo, the Bills win the turnover and red-zone margins, and the game bends his way. But the conversation always circles back to January. Beating Patrick Mahomes when the stakes spike is the last box left.</p><p>For now, the Bills get the win, the tie-breaker, and another reminder that they can dictate this rivalry until the playoffs say otherwise. The next chapter, likely in January, can’t come soon enough.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Allen opened with a 23-yard strike to tight end Dalton Kincaid, then bulled in a short TD run before halftime. He added another rushing score after the break as Buffalo built a 28–13 cushion and held on late. ESPN’s Box Score clocked Allen for one passing and two rushing touchdowns in the win, the latest chapter in his ongoing duel with Patrick Mahomes.  </p><p>Kansas City made Buffalo sweat. Patrick Mahomes led a fourth-quarter push capped by a Kareem Hunt touchdown and a two-point dart to Travis Kelce, trimming it to 28–21 with 11:32 left. But Buffalo’s defense delivered the last word: cornerback Maxwell Hairston snagged a late interception to ice it.</p><p>Allen’s line won’t read gaudy, but it was timely and tough, vintage Highmark Stadium stuff. The Bills mixed in Ty Johnson at the goal line and leaned on Kincaid and Khalil Shakir to move chains. The Chiefs countered with Kelce in the middle of the field and Rashee Rice on schemed touches, but too many empty possessions early forced them to chase.  </p><p>As for the history, 47 games with both a passing and rushing TD, pushing him past every quarterback who has ever done it.

Hendrickson, who battled a prolonged contract dispute before receiving a late $13 million raise for this final year, has four sacks in six games and is doubtful with a hip injury.</p><p>Separately, ESPN notes that fellow defensive standout Logan Wilson requested a trade less than two weeks ago and has drawn interest from the Bills, Cowboys, and Colts as the deadline approaches.</p><p>The market is wider than a single suitor list. As the New York Times has reported, multiple contenders, including the Rams, 49ers, Lions, Colts, and Eagles, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6767924/2025/11/01/nfl-trade-deadline-2025-rumors-news-tush-push/" rel="noopener">have phoned about several</a> Bengals defenders, Wilson, corner Cam Taylor-Britt, and, of course, Hendrickson.</p><p>For now, some of those teams believe Cincinnati has little appetite to move core pieces, as an NFL rumor, which aligns with the front office’s track record of resisting midseason sell-offs unless the return is overwhelming.</p><p>Viewed through Cincinnati’s roster math, holding firm has logic. Lou Anarumo’s defense leans on four-man pressure and coverage versatility, and moving Hendrickson would require both premium picks and a clear path to replace his snap share and disruption.</p><p>Wilson, on the other hand, plays a signal-caller role at the second level, and any move would need to account for communication, green-dot responsibilities, and how quickly a rookie-heavy depth chart could absorb his workload.</p><p>Cap and control also matter. Hendrickson’s one-year setup makes him a win-now piece with limited team control, while Wilson’s situation turns on value versus fit if the request stands. That is why interested teams are probing both price and Cincinnati’s resolve while monitoring Sunday’s scoreboard.</p><p>Injury context adds urgency. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-trey-hendrickson-logan-wilson-concerning-injury-updates-before-bears">Both Hendrickson, hip, and Wilson, calf, did not practice Thursday</a>, their second straight DNP, placing them in serious doubt for Week 9 against the Bears.</p><p>If Hendrickson sits, Myles Murphy and Shemar Stewart are next up on the edge, while at linebacker, the staff has already prioritized snaps for rookies Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight Jr.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Reports have also tied the Bills to the conversation, with Buffalo exploring help behind its top options and the Raiders signaling a high asking price for their veteran target.</p><p>Per the New York Times, Las Vegas<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6767924/2025/11/01/nfl-trade-deadline-2025-rumors-news-tush-push/" rel="noopener"> has fielded calls from both</a> the Steelers and Bills on Meyers, but the Raiders set a steep price, and Pittsburgh is simultaneously checking other wideout options as the deadline nears.</p><p>That stance tracks with how the market views Meyers, who profiles as a reliable chain-mover and route-winner rather than a pure field stretcher, and it explains why interested teams are testing multiple lanes at once.</p><p>For Pittsburgh, the need is obvious. After shipping out George Pickens in the offseason, production beyond DK Metcalf has been sporadic. Calvin Austin III has flashed, but the gap between WR1 and the rest of the room remains wide, which is why a possession receiver who thrives on option routes and third downs makes sense.</p><p>Meyers’ usage in Las Vegas this year has stayed steady amid a 2 and 5 performance, and while the counting numbers are modest, his role projects cleanly into Arthur Smith’s offense that prizes spacing and reliability.</p><p>Buffalo sits on the other end of the stylistic spectrum but has a similar problem set. When the ball is not funneled to the top target, the Bills have struggled to find on-schedule answers against man coverage. A receiver who can win quickly and convert in the red area would reduce stress on the quarterback and on a defense that has lived on the field too long in key stretches.</p><p>Las Vegas’ leverage is time and price. With no urgency to dump a starting-caliber receiver, the front office can hold for a premium or pivot to 2026 with Meyers as a stabilizer for Geno Smith and Brock Bowers.

They acquired Amari Cooper last season, hoping that would add firepower to their offense, but his impact was minuscule. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-keon-coleman-blunt-response-steve-smith-putting-blast" rel="noopener">2024 second-round pick Keon Coleman</a> has yet to take a second-year leap, leaving the Bills without a top receiving threat. The lack of production is forcing Buffalo’s brass to scour the trade market to maximize their current Super Bowl window, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6767924/2025/11/01/nfl-trade-deadline-2025-rumors-news-tush-push/" rel="noopener">resulting in an interesting inquiry.</a> </p><p>The Bills were one of a handful of teams to call the New Orleans Saints to check the availability of wideout Chris Olave, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.</p><p>Olave would be a tremendous addition to the Bills’ offense. Not only does he have a proven track record — two seasons of 1,000-plus yards — Olave provides consistency to a rather inconsistent Bills passing attack. While there have been splashes of success from Khalil Shakir and tight end Dalton Kincaid, pairing Olave with Allen should only propel the Bills’ <a href="https://premium.pff.com/nfl/teams/2025/REGPO" rel="noopener">currently eighth-ranked passing attack</a> further inside the top 10.</p><p>Through eight games, Olave has 52 receptions, 503 yards, and three touchdowns. Yet, it is Olave’s ability to get open downfield that separates him from other receivers on the market. Olave has <a href="https://premium.pff.com/nfl/positions/2025/REGPO/receiving-depth?position=WR&amp;split=deep&amp;minimum=20p" rel="noopener">four receptions of</a> <a href="https://premium.pff.com/nfl/positions/2025/REGPO/receiving-depth?position=WR&amp;split=deep&amp;minimum=20p" rel="noopener">20 or more yards,</a> tied for 15th in the NFL with players such as Puka Nacua, Justin Jefferson, and Ja’Marr Chase, according to Pro Football Focus. </p><p>Unfortunately for Buffalo, the Saints do not expect to part ways with Olave this season, according to Russini. No definitive reason was given, but with Olave under contract through 2026, New Orleans has fewer incentives to deal him. However, Olave’s contractual status could also further justify the Bills’ front office to part ways with multiple high-end draft picks to acquire the Ohio State product. </p><p>The Bills have tried and failed to find Allen a legitimate number-one wide receiver. At 25 years old and under team control for two more seasons, Olave presents a perfect opportunity for the Bills to add the missing piece to their offense. </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Kansas City has sent the Bills home in the postseason in four of the last five years, which is something that will certainly be on the minds of the Bills and their fans coming into this game.</p><p>Both the Bills and Chiefs have some flaws this season, but they are both still clearly among the best teams in the AFC and are on the short list of teams that can make a run at the Super Bowl this season. The Bills are coming into the renewal of this rivalry in Week 9 coming off of a very impressive 40-9 win over the Carolina Panthers, while the Chiefs have won five of their last six games and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/washington-commanders/commanders-news-zach-ertz-hits-washington-urgent-warning-after-ugly-loss-chiefs">just blew out the Commanders</a> on Monday Night Football.</p><p>Both sides of the ball will be critical in this game, but the Chiefs’ offense against the Bills’ defense features a pair of units who are starting to find their way a bit.

The star defensive tackle in Buffalo is now on injured reserve due to a torn biceps injury, and it is arguably the injury that this Buffalo team could not afford to have.</p><p>Oliver played in just three games this season, and the defense did not perform up to snuff in the games that he missed. Teams like the Dolphins, Saints and Patriots all had some success moving the ball in the games that Oliver didn’t play, and the comfort level of the quarterbacks in those games was a big reason why.</p><p>Those quarterbacks were Tua Tagovailoa, Spencer Rattler and Drake Maye. Maye is an MVP candidate, but he still doesn’t have a resume that stacks up with that of Patrick Mahomes. If Mahomes is able to be comfortable and step up in the pocket, something that he does better than just about anyone in the NFL, it could be trouble for the Bills.</p><p>Oliver is also a strong player against the run. The Chiefs are not an explosive rushing attack with Kareem Hunt and Isiah Pacheco (who is likely to miss this game), but they have run the ball efficiently this season and currently rank ninth in the NFL in rushing success rate and third in total rushing EPA. If they are able to stay ahead of the sticks with the ground game, it will be very difficult to stop Mahomes and company on Sunday.</p><h2><b>Kansas City can attack the middle of the Bills’ defense</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rashee-Rice-1.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images.</figcaption></figure><p>The weakness of the Bills’ defense is in the middle, and the Chiefs are perfectly built to exploit exactly that kind of weakness. Matt Milano is back healthy, but he isn’t the same player that he used to be a couple of years ago in his prime. Terrel Bernard is also gettable at the linebacker spot, but that’s not where the real weakness lies.</p><p>The Bills have a gaping hole at safety, so much so that they recently brought back veteran Jordan Poyer to play for the injured Taylor Rapp in the back end. Rapp was uninspiring before going down, and Poyer is long past his prime and is being asked to play a big role in the secondary now.</p><p>Cole Bishop is starting next to Poyer, and opposing offenses have gone after him time and time again all season. Expect more of the same from the Chiefs, who have the requisite weapons to exploit the Bills’ weaknesses in that area.</p><p>Everyone knows about Travis Kelce, one of the best tight ends in league history. The future Hall-of-Famer is past his prime, but he has looked rejuvenated somewhat this season and has always showed up in the big moments against the Bills. With Buffalo’s weaknesses over the middle in both man and zone defenses, Kelce should be able to take advantage on Sunday.</p><p>Then there is Rashee Rice. The SMU product will be playing in just his third game since returning from a suspension and a knee injury, but he looks like he hasn’t lost a step. He is the most explosive weapon that Andy Reid has at his disposal and that has been on display through two games with him in the lineup. Rice has 16 catches on 19 targets in those two games for 135 yards and three touchdowns.</p><p>Rice isn’t a traditional wide receiver who does all of his work on the outside, either. He spends a lot of the time in the slot or inside in condensed formations and does a ton of work underneath and in the middle of the field. This puts a lot of pressure on the linebackers and safeties to not only cover him, but to get him on the ground after the catch.</p><p>The advanced numbers show just <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/rashee-rice-back-are-chiefs-best-team-afc">how big of a piece Rice is to this offense</a>. The sample size is smaller for him than for the rest of the league, but Rice leads the NFL in target share among qualified players and ranks in the top 20 in EPA per target. When Mahomes throws him the ball, good things happen, and that should continue to be true in this matchup.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

While the matchup between Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes will dominate headlines, the Bills’ ability to establish Cook as a workhorse on the ground represents their best opportunity to control this pivotal Week 9 showdown at Highmark Stadium.</p><p>The Chiefs have been exposed defensively against the run throughout the 2025 season, ranking 11th in rushing yards allowed per game at 100 yards while sitting 24th in expected points allowed on rushes according to TruMedia. Even more concerning for Kansas City, they’re surrendering 1.55 yards per rush before contact, placing them 20th in the league. That means opposing offensive lines are winning at the point of attack before running backs even get touched, creating massive running lanes for explosive plays.​</p><p>Buffalo witnessed this vulnerability firsthand last week when <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-james-savagely-cooks-dolphins-response">Cook erupted for 216 yards and two touchdowns</a> on just 19 carries against Carolina, averaging an eye-popping 11.4 yards per attempt. The offensive line dominated at the line of scrimmage, with Cook gaining 141 yards before contact, the most by any player in a single game during the 2025 season. That performance showcased precisely the formula Buffalo must replicate against Kansas City’s suspect front seven.​</p><h2>Establishing James Cook as the Foundation for Offensive Success</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/James-Cook.jpg"><figcaption>Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The numbers tell a compelling story about Cook’s importance to Buffalo’s offensive success this season. In games where he receives 19 or more carries, Cook has surpassed 100 yards and scored at least once, with the Bills winning all three contests. Conversely, in games with fewer touches, he hasn’t achieved either milestone, and Buffalo has lost those matchups. Cook leads the league in both rushing yards per carry and rushing yards per game following his record-setting performance, making him the most efficient back in football.​​</p><p>Offensive coordinator Joe Brady must commit to feeding Cook early and often against Kansas City’s defensive front. The Bills’ under-center run game has been particularly effective, with 85 percent of Cook’s carries against Carolina coming from under center, allowing him to build momentum toward the line of scrimmage. This approach creates advantageous blocking angles for Buffalo’s offensive line while forcing Kansas City’s defense to honor the run threat rather than selling out against Allen’s passing attack.​</p><p>The Chiefs’ defensive tackle situation exacerbates their run defense struggles. Beyond All-Pro Chris Jones, Kansas City lacks depth and consistency along the interior. Omarr Norman-Lott suffered a torn ACL that ended his season, leaving the Chiefs thin at one of their most critical positions. Derrick Nnadi ranks among the worst defensive linemen in the league according to Pro Football Focus, while Jerry Tillery hasn’t fared much better. This deficiency allows Buffalo’s offensive line, ranked third in the league by Pro Football Focus, to dominate one-on-one matchups and create running lanes.​</p><h2>Opening the Playbook Through Play-Action Success</h2><p>Establishing Cook as a consistent threat accomplishes more than just accumulating rushing yards. It fundamentally transforms how Kansas City’s defense must approach the game, creating opportunities for Allen to exploit one of his greatest strengths: play-action passing. The Bills’ offensive line has shown exceptional ability to execute zone blocking schemes with precision timing, allowing Cook to find green grass while keeping defenders honest.​</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Josh Allen went 5-5 for 71 yards off of play action last night, per <a href="https://twitter.com/NextGenStats?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NextGenStats</a>.</p><p>He had a couple of brilliant throws off of PA. Watch on the first clip how he moves the deep safety with his eyes before throwing. Second clip he hits essentially a 3rd window throw. Good stuff. <a href="https://t.co/sToBC2n6dz">pic.twitter.com/sToBC2n6dz</a></p><p>— Nate Tice (@Nate_Tice) <a href="https://twitter.com/Nate_Tice/status/1975218750648614967?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 6, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://instagram.com/embed.js"></script></p></figure><p>When defenses load the box to stop the run, Allen becomes virtually unstoppable. He leads the NFL with 42 throws from the pocket without being sacked this season, doubling the next closest quarterback. On scrambles outside designed runs, Allen has completed 16 passes for 142 yards and six touchdowns this season. By forcing Kansas City to commit extra defenders to stopping Cook, Buffalo creates one-on-one matchups on the perimeter that favor their receiving corps.​</p><p>The Chiefs’ pass defense has performed admirably this season, allowing just 174.6 passing yards per game and ranking among the league’s best against deep throws. Kansas City has surrendered only seven passing touchdowns all season while allowing just 159 yards per game over their last six contests. This defensive strength makes attacking through the air as a primary strategy risky for Buffalo, particularly given that Bills receivers are forcing Allen to throw into tight coverage over 14 percent of the time, with his completion rate in those scenarios ranking sixth-worst in the league.​</p><p>However, play-action changes everything. By establishing Cook’s rushing attack early, the Bills can leverage Allen’s improvisational brilliance when defenses bite on run fakes. Allen’s ability to extend plays and create magic outside the pocket becomes exponentially more dangerous when Kansas City’s defensive backs are anticipating run rather than pass. The threat of Cook breaking another 60-plus yard touchdown run will keep Chiefs defenders creeping toward the line of scrimmage, opening opportunities for big plays downfield.</p><h2>The Blueprint for Victory</h2><p>For Buffalo to emerge victorious in this massive Week 9 clash, they must commit to establishing Cook as the centerpiece of their offensive gameplan. The Bills need to hand Cook the ball 20-plus times, using under-center formations and zone blocking schemes to create running lanes against Kansas City’s vulnerable defensive front. This approach accomplishes multiple objectives: it controls the clock, keeps Mahomes off the field, opens play-action opportunities for Allen, and wears down a Chiefs defense that already struggles against the run.</p><p>The Bills have demonstrated they can beat Kansas City during the regular season, winning four consecutive matchups between these AFC powerhouses. However, those victories came when Buffalo could dictate terms and force the Chiefs to play their style of football. Allowing this game to become a passing contest between Allen and Mahomes plays into Kansas City’s hands, given their superior pass defense and championship pedigree in high-pressure situations.​</p><p>Sunday’s showdown represents a statement game for both franchises, with significant implications for playoff seeding and AFC supremacy. While the quarterback matchup will capture national attention, the game’s outcome likely hinges on whether Buffalo’s offensive line and James Cook can impose their will against Kansas City’s suspect run defense. If Cook approaches 150-plus yards and the Bills control time of possession, they’ll position themselves for victory in front of a raucous home crowd desperate to see their team finally vanquish the Chiefs when it matters most.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The team confirmed it will continue to hold training camp at St. John Fisher University in Rochester through 2028 after signing a three-year extension with the school.</p><p>For the Bills, maintaining their partnership with St. John Fisher was a simple decision. General Manager Brandon Beane emphasized that traveling for camp each summer is vital to the team’s chemistry. That plays a huge part in the preparation for the upcoming season.</p><p>“We really enjoy the setup there,” Beane said. “Even though it is a dying breed of teams that like to go away, we feel it provides such an important element of team chemistry and bonding. They do such a great job for us. The staff is excellent, and it gives everyone a change of scenery to fire you up for the season.”</p><p>The 2026 training camp will mark the Bills’ 25th visit to St. John Fisher University. The decision highlights the school’s continued ability to host an NFL franchise and its support staff. It’s something that Beane and other team leaders have long valued.</p><h2><b>Bills training camp is for the players and the fans</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Bills-2.jpg"><figcaption>Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Pete Guelli echoed that sentiment, calling the continuation of the partnership a win for both the Bills and their fans.</p><p>“St. John Fisher University has been an amazing host to our organization and the perfect location for our fans to engage with the team,” Guelli said. “Rochester will always be an important part of Bills Mafia.”</p><p>St. John Fisher President Dr. Gerard J. Rooney said the university is honored to continue its collaboration with the Bills. He called it a proud tradition that strengthens ties between the team and the Rochester community.</p><p>“We have enjoyed this partnership for more than two decades,” Rooney said. “We are grateful to the Buffalo Bills organization for trusting us to continue this beloved summer tradition in Western New York.”</p><p>The dates for next year’s camp will be announced in the coming months. But it will again take place in July. The continuation ensures that fans across the region can keep experiencing the Bills up close as they prepare for another NFL season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/eagles-news-adam-schefter-drops-major-aj-brown-trade-deadline-update"> AJ Brown suddenly getting involved in trade rumors</a>, many hoped that the team would try to trade for the star. However, Bill Barnwell<a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46756885/2025-nfl-trade-deadline-32-teams-make-deals-add-subtract-players-rosters-depth-chart" rel="noopener"> reports that it’s not likely to happen.</a></p><p>“Bills fans will want GM Brandon Beane to go into the market for a star wide receiver and come away with someone like A.J. Brown, but barring something truly shocking, I’d be surprised if the Bills went that direction,” Barnwell reports for ESPN. “Remember that Beane shipped a third-round pick to the Browns for Amari Cooper last year (that selection landed Cleveland its current starting quarterback in Dillon Gabriel). Cooper had 20 catches for 297 yards in a Bills uniform before leaving and then retiring.”</p><p>Instead, Barnwell reports that the Bills might be looking to trade for someone on the defensive side of the ball. It makes more sense: with star DT Ed Oliver set to miss multiple games due to a bicep injury, Buffalo needs more help on defense. Their defense has also been struggling as of late, with the pass rush and the safety positions being key areas of need for the team.</p><p>The Bills are set to take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9. The modern-day rivals will be facing off against each other to add another chapter to their classic rivalry. The Chiefs’ offense has been on fire as of late, which poses a threat to the struggling Bills defense.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Whenever Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes share the same field, fireworks follow. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/chiefs-bills-bold-predictions-afc-championship-rematch-clash-week-9-2025">Week 9 promises nothing less</a>. The Buffalo Bills (5-2) are coming off a commanding 40-9 win over the Carolina Panthers and return home to Highmark Stadium with momentum and revenge on their minds. Standing in their way are, of course, the surging Kansas City Chiefs (5-3).</p><p>This Week 9 showdown will be a test of will, execution, and championship DNA. For Buffalo, the stakes are simple. They want to prove they can finally outlast the Chiefs when it matters. For Kansas City, it’s about maintaining control of the AFC hierarchy and sending a reminder that the road to the Super Bowl still runs through Mahomes.</p><h2><b>Bills host Chiefs in high-stakes AFC showdown</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Josh-Allen-with-Buffalo-Bills-15.jpg"><figcaption>Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>This is a rematch of <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/chiefs-news-xavier-worthy-takes-shot-bills-afc-championship-win">last year’s AFC Championship Game</a>, where the Chiefs once again dashed Buffalo’s title hopes. This rivalry has become must-watch television. Of course, that historical context adds fuel to the fire.</p><p>Yes, Mahomes has won all <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/where-patrick-mahomes-josh-allen-rivalry-ranks-recent-sports-history">four postseason meetings between the two</a>. That said, Allen holds the edge in regular-season matchups (4-1). The Bills have typically found ways to shine in the regular season, only to falter in January. That’s a narrative that Buffalo desperately wants to change. With the Chiefs playing their most complete football of the season, though, the challenge is steep. The outcome at Highmark Stadium won’t just shape playoff positioning. It could alter the perception of who truly controls the AFC moving forward.</p><p><i><b>*Watch NFL games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/stream/football/?irad=356362&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><p>Here we will look at and discuss some bold predictions for the game between <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/game/_/gameId/401772768/chiefs-bills">the Chiefs and the Bills in Week 9</a> of the 2025 NFL season.</p><h2><b>Josh Allen has the stats, the Chiefs have the game</b></h2><p>For Josh Allen, this game is personal. He’s been brilliant against Kansas City in the regular season, only to watch the Chiefs celebrate when it counts most. This week should be no different: expect Allen to put up monster numbers in front of the raucous Bills Mafia. He will outgain Mahomes through both the air and on the ground. He will find ways to exploit Kansas City’s secondary with big plays to Keon Coleman and Dalton Kincaid.</p><p>However, the Chiefs have perfected the art of winning even when Mahomes isn’t the most productive player on the field. Their offense has averaged over 31 points and 410 yards per game since Week 4. The difference will be execution in the fourth quarter. That’ an area where Kansas City consistently shines. Yes, Allen will post the more eye-popping stats. Still, Mahomes’ late-game poise will prove decisive. Allen finishes with 300+ total yards and three touchdowns, but the Chiefs find a way to steal another one late.</p><h2><b>James Cook delivers another monster game</b></h2><p>If there’s one constant in Buffalo’s recent resurgence, it’s James Cook’s breakout season. The explosive running back has been the engine of the Bills offense. He has broken games open with his speed and elusiveness. Last week’s 216-yard, two-touchdown performance against Carolina was a career highlight.</p><p>The Chiefs’ defense, while improved, has shown occasional vulnerability against dynamic runners. Buffalo will lean heavily on Cook early. They will use screens, draws, and zone runs to keep the Chiefs’ front seven honest. Cook will eclipse 100 total yards and score twice, once on the ground and once as a receiver. His versatility will keep the Chiefs guessing all afternoon.</p><h2><b>Bills’ defense forces a turnover and scores</b></h2><p>The Bills defense thrives on energy and opportunism. The unit has forced turnovers in six of its seven games this season. Against Patrick Mahomes, those moments are rare but critical.</p><p>Expect Buffalo’s D to dial up disguised pressures and bracket coverages to force Mahomes into quick decisions. Buffalo will force a turnover and return it for a touchdown, perhaps off a strip-sack or tipped interception. It will be the spark that keeps the Bills in the game deep into the fourth quarter.</p><h2><b>Bills come up short again</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Bills-Josh-Allen-being-tackled-by-a-Dolphins-defender.jpg"><figcaption>Mark Konezny-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>This rivalry has delivered some of the best football of the modern era. The Bills will come out firing, the crowd will be electric, and Josh Allen will once again play at an MVP level. When it comes to finishing games, though, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs have been the gold standard. That won’t change this Sunday.</p><p>The Chiefs’ offense is simply operating on another level. With Rashee Rice stretching defenses, Travis Kelce dominating underneath, and Kareem Hunt pounding out tough yards, Kansas City’s balance will ultimately prove too much for Buffalo’s defense to contain.</p><p>The Chiefs will win, 34-28, in a thrilling, back-and-forth affair. It will once again underscore why these two teams are destined to cross paths in January.</p><h2><b>Familiar heartbreak, familiar lessons</b></h2><p>For the Bills, Week 9 might feel like déjà vu. It will be another strong effort overshadowed by late-game heartbreak. Still, this team remains one of the AFC’s elite. Every battle with Kansas City sharpens their resolve.</p><p>For Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, it’s business as usual. They will survive, adapt, and win when it matters most. The rivalry remains fierce, the respect mutual, and the margin razor-thin. Once again, though, the scoreboard favors Kansas City.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

This Week 9 clash in Orchard Park should be no different.</p><h2><b>Rivalry Renewed</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Chiefs-Patrick-Mahomes-reveals-how-he-moved-on-from-early-MNF-interceptions.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Kansas City Chiefs (5-3) have shaken off their slow start and reclaimed their identity as one of the league’s elite. They’ve won five of their last six and rediscovered their balance on offense. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/chiefs-news-patrick-mahomes-moved-on-early-interceptions">Mahomes is back to his MVP-level brilliance</a>.

This game doesn’t just shape playoff seeding. It could be a preview of the AFC title game once again.</p><p><i><b>*Watch NFL games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/stream/football/?irad=356362&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><p>Here we will look at and discuss some bold predictions for the game between the Bills and the Chiefs <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/scoreboard/_/week/9/year/2025/seasontype/2">in Week 9 of the 2025 NFL season</a>.</p><h2><b>Patrick Mahomes will be outplayed by Josh Allen again</b></h2><p>This is bold but rooted in history. As dominant as Mahomes has been overall, Allen has consistently had his number in regular-season meetings. The Bills quarterback owns a 4-1 record against Mahomes in the regular season. Allen has often outperformed Mahomes statistically, even if postseason history tells a different story.</p><p>Allen has been on a tear in 2025. He is efficiently blending power and precision as both a passer and runner. At home, where he feeds off the energy of Bills Mafia, expect him to put up gaudy numbers again. He will have something in the neighborhood of 300+ total yards and three touchdowns. Mahomes will play well, as he always does. Allen’s mobility and deep-ball aggression, though, could make the difference in moving the chains and sustaining drives.</p><p>That said, while Allen may win the statistical battle, Mahomes could still win the war. The Chiefs’ offense is humming again after a rocky September. Mahomes remains the most dangerous player in football when it matters most. Expect him to keep pace with two or three scores of his own. Still, Allen will narrowly edge him in total production by game’s end.</p><h2><b>Isiah Pacheco breaks 100 yards</b></h2><p>If the Chiefs want to control tempo and keep Allen on the sideline, Isiah Pacheco will be their most important weapon. The bruising running back has not been a steady force all season. He hasn’t yet hit the 100-yard mark in a single game. If Pacheco plays in Week 9, that will change.</p><p>The Bills’ defensive front has shown cracks recently, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/bills-news-buffalo-fearing-worst-ed-oliver-biceps-injury">especially after injuries</a> to key linemen have weakened their interior. Pacheco’s aggressive, downhill style is tailor-made for exploiting those gaps. Buffalo will respect Rashee Rice’s downfield speed and Travis Kelce’s short-area dominance. As such, lanes should open up for Pacheco to churn out chunk gains.</p><p>Pacheco finally eclipses 100 rushing yards for the first time this season. He will also add a touchdown in the process.</p><h2><b>Chiefs force three turnovers</b></h2><p>Much has been said about Kansas City’s offense. However, it’s their defense that’s quietly become a championship-caliber unit once again. The Chiefs’ opportunistic approach under Steve Spagnuolo has yielded consistent results. They curently rank among the league leaders in takeaways. Against a Bills offense that thrives on risk and improvisation, that aggressiveness could pay huge dividends.</p><p>Allen’s gunslinger mentality sometimes leads to danger. Under heavy pressure, he’s been prone to forcing throws into tight windows or extending plays a beat too long. That’s something Kansas City’s defense is built to capitalize on. Expect Chris Jones and George Karlaftis to collapse the pocket and disrupt timing. Meanwhile, the secondary jumps on mistakes.</p><p>The Chiefs will force two interceptions and one fumble recovery. These will swing momentum at key points in the game. Those takeaways will help offset any offensive struggles and remind the AFC that Kansas City’s defense is no longer just a supporting act.</p><h2><b>Chiefs roll to their sixth win</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/2-2.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Bills will come out firing. Allen will put up big numbers. The crowd at Highmark Stadium will be deafening. When the dust settles, though, it’s hard to bet against Mahomes in a heavyweight matchup like this.</p><p>The Chiefs’ offense, averaging over 31 points and 410 yards per game since Week 4, is operating at a rhythm few defenses can contain. The return of Rice has opened up vertical passing lanes, and Kelce remains as reliable as ever in crunch time. Meanwhile, the Bills’ defense may struggle to get off the field against Mahomes’ precision and Pacheco’s punishing runs.</p><p>Kansas City wins, 34–28. They will survive another classic duel between two of the NFL’s modern titans. Mahomes might not win the box-score battle, but he’ll get the victory that counts.</p><h2><b>Familiar rivals, familiar outcome</b></h2><p>Every time the Chiefs and Bills meet, it feels like a postseason preview. Both teams are stacked, both quarterbacks are playing elite football, and both fanbases know what’s at stake. However, when it comes down to execution, Kansas City’s experience and defensive edge will tip the scales.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
