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. That stance also keeps pressure on suitors to decide whether a rental is worth a day two pick or a player plus mid-round package.</p><p>According to continued insider chatter, a deal is not off the table. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/las-vegas-raiders/raiders-rumors-jakobi-meyers-trade-table-insider">Mike Garafolo has indicated Meyers has sought a move more</a> than once, and Las Vegas just added Tyler Lockett, a veteran who already has chemistry with Geno Smith, which could cushion a departure.</p><p>Meyers is on a quiet statistical pace this season, and he reaches free agency after the year, a combination that pushes trade math toward value discipline for buyers and toward timing discipline for the Raiders.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

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>
