Mack Hollins steps up but Bills don’t play enough acting in AFC Championship Tab (Pass/Fail)

Buffalo Bills came back short against Kansas City Chiefs.

Joe Brady’s game plan wasn’t good enough. The same could be said for Bobby Babich’s defense. Both units played in the 32-29 loss on Sunday, but they couldn’t make enough. And of course, there was a controversial call from the official crew.

With the bills that led 22-21 in the fourth quarter, Buffalo tried a Josh Allen QB Snow on the 4th and Inches. Kansas City had played well the whole game, but on this occasion it seemed that Allen had moved the chains. The first official marked it as such, but another official supported it and sent it for review. The former official Gene Steratore thought Allen had the first down, like CBS -TV stations Tony Romo and Jim Nantz, but after the review they declared that Allen had come short. Instead of Buffalo having a chance to expand his lead, the ball was given to Chiefs with a large field position. Kansas City continued to score and take the lead. Although the bills would later tie the game, the call penetrated big at the end.

Follow Buffalos 32-29 defeat against ChiefsHere’s who went and failed for Buffalo on Sunday.

Pass

James Cook: Buffalo’s star back looked that part against Chiefs on Sunday. He average 6.5 meters per Carry and had two touchdowns on the ground. The only problem for chef? He had only 13 carriers in the game. Buffalo had been a balanced team all season, but still went away from his back on Sunday. It turned out to be expensive. In addition to rushing in 85 yards, Cook also had 49 yards receipt.

Mack Hollins: Mack Hollins had his best game as a member of the bills. The veteran scored a touchdown late in the first half against Chiefs’ top cornerback and created a first-and-goal late in the game on a 32-yard reception. He ended with three catches in 73 yards and a score.

Josh Allen: This was not Allen’s best performance, but much of it falls on the shoulders of Joe Brady’s spectacle. Allen was early Antsy, but he settled as the game continued. He finished 22-of-34 passes in 237 yards and two touchdowns. Allen was not effective as a runner for the most part, especially at QB -Snig, as Kansas City was prepared for the game every time it was run.

Fail

Kaiir Elam: The previous choice of the first round was called for action after Christian Benford suffered a serious concussion early in the game. Despite having all the athletic traits you look for in a cornerback, Elam gave too much pillow to Kansas City’s recipients, which led to too many easy receptions. At this point, it is clear that both the team and Elam have to move on apart.

Dalton Kincaid: The previous choice of the first round had a chance to keep Bills’ drive alive on a late fourth-and-5. With pressure down, Allen threw the ball down Adfield. It looked like Allen was just threw a prayer, but it went to Kincaid in an area where he had plenty of room to play. Kincaid does not track the ball well and he fell it.

After a fantastic rookie season, Kincaid disappointed over his second season.

Bills Olympics: Buffalo’s offensive line had its hands filled with chiefs. Kansas City has a strong defensive line, but watching Bills’ offensive line match consistently was something we not so much this season.

Bills’ rookie class: Buffalo didn’t get enough from their rookie class this season. Keon Coleman was held on only one catch in 12 yards on Sunday. Cole Bishop had a team leading 10 tackles, but had no difference -creating plays for the defense. The third round pick DeWayne Carter was inactive at defensive tackle, and driving back Ray Davis had only four meters on two carriers. Preparation late in the first round makes it more difficult to find hits, but Chiefs’ Rookie class surpassed Buffalo’s class on Sunday.

Coaching: It’s time for Matthew Smiley to go. His unit allowed a long point return in the loss and the covering teams had far more downs than UPS this season.

As for Buffalo’s other coordinators, Sunday just wasn’t good enough. Joe Brady gave up the race early in the game, which turned out to be expensive, and continued to go to QB-Snig despite Chiefs playing it so well on the third and fourth and short.

Defensively, there must be some blame on Bobby Babich. While his device came with two stops to open the second half, Chiefs had too many Chunk acts in Buffalo’s loss.
