Bills fall short in breakout season with 38-24 loss to KC

Associated Press  

Josh Allen played a huge role in getting the Buffalo Bills to their first AFC championship game in 27 years. After scoring their first touchdown set up by Taiwan Jones recovering Mecole Hardman’s muffed punt at the Kansas City 3, the Bills settled for field goals on three drives inside the Chiefs 35. I wanted to at least have something to show for it going into the half.” Buffalo’s defense didn’t help, unable to solve the Chiefs for a second time this season. Tyreek Hill exposed the Bills’ tackling deficiencies by catching mostly short passes in the flats and zig-zagging away from defenders in finishing with nine catches for 172 yards. “We feel like we came in with a good game plan and then we just couldn’t stop the bleeding once they started going.” The Chiefs punted just once in a game they finished with 29 first downs, the most Buffalo has allowed this season.
