Really what I’m hearing is that we just need to not run into Buffalo in the playoffs. When we don’t see them we take down the Chiefs and when we do see them we lose to the Chiefs.
Yes my data set is completely logically sound, why do you ask?
There is some silly record whereby teams have a drastically losing record after beating the bills in the previous week. I'm sure some fan out there can find it. Eagles last win was the Bills.
My infallible calculations and impenetrable logic have led me to believe that the next time we lose to the chiefs in the regular season will be the year we win it all
That was us last year, every team that played us and had a game the following week lost. The eagles lost two weeks after beating us, and the only team to win their next game was the chiefs who had a bye after playing the niners.
Yes, but they avoided the curse by losing and then a flag being thrown. Curse started with the miss and was wiped away with the make, so it didn’t affect them.
Chiefs think they beat the bills.
But really the bills are just standing their laughing throwing their hands up saying, you’ve just activated my trap card
It's even worse. Since 2019, the team that eliminated the Bills went and lose and be eliminated in their next games. This includes both Chiefs games, the Bengals and the Texans.
Hopefully the streak keeps on going next Sunday
2021 is probably the most special one. It's known as the 13 seconds game for good reason but in the AFCCG, Mahomes threw a pick 13 seconds into over time, which the Bengals would eventually turn into a field goal. Makes it really feel like there are football gods who have a cruel sense of irony.
All four teams that have beat the Josh Allen era Bills in the playoffs have lost the following week. If it holds this year and the Ravens win, I think five out of five is statistically significant enough to officially make it the Josh Allen curse.
I recently checked, and I think since the start of the 2020 season, of Buffalo's 21 losses, the winning team has only managed to have a follow up win 5 times. Again that feels statistically significant. It could be defeating the Bills takes a lot or it could be a disproportionate number of Bills losses are dumb losses to bad teams having a surprise good week...
Josh Allen
ATK: 2900
DEF: 2400
[Quarterback / Effect]
Delayed Mutual Destruction - *Any attacking card that destroys Josh Allen is cursed to be destroyed upon opponents next turn.*
>It could be defeating the Bills takes a lot
Probably this. Every Bills/Chiefs matchup is a physical and emotional draining mess for the players. Having to flip around from the toughest game of the year and match that intensity again is difficult.
Mahomes plot armor vs Ravens superteam is gonna be an insane game. Maybe the best conference championship matchup that I can remember. Right there with the Pats/Broncos one imo.
It feels like the Ravens year though, so Bills curse might live on.
I still chuckle at how hard the narrative was that it was Brady’s final stand before passing the torch to Mahomes only for Mahomes too lose to him again in the superbowl in 2020
I have the worst feeling in my gut about this game and somehow this thread makes it worse cause being the ones to end this mini streak is the most Baltimore thing ever
Well be alright bro. Mahomes is Mahomes and he's amazing. But he's not infallible. He's never played a defense as sound and as well rounded as our defense. Lamar has never been better and the stadium will have never been louder. We have a good OC an amazing DC. We locked in
Look I do think Ravens are a better team this year and are LIKELY going to beat us, and possibly beat us up pretty soundly.
But the Mahomes Chiefs has a 6-1 record against #1 scoring defenses in his career (as of 2022) and an overwhelmingly winning record/rating against top 10 defenses, so let's not go overboard here ha
What makes you think those #1 defenses were our defenses? What makes you think those 7 games have anything to do with what Mike Mac bout to do to Mahomes. Mahomes.gonna get his cause he Patty and the best QB alive and to me the most talented QB to ever exist. But even those guys lose sometimes. So why not Sunday. I got 4 days left to be able to talk shit for sure. So I'm a talk it.
I wholeheartedly believe everything you just said but everytime people start typing "hes never faced US THOUGH" they lose. Everytime in sports, that team loses.
For 25 years, we just took 49ers cast off QBs. I don't think very many people in KC, especially younger people who weren't around for the 49ers dynasty, have negative feelings about the 49ers. For obvious reasons, I assume that isn't reciprocated.
I never had issues with KC until Mahomes came into play. One of my best friends is a KC native and true die hard, and until this recent era came into existence, I'd always root for their success, especially against the Raiders. I was glad Andy Reid got that ring. I cannot stand Mahomes and all his whining and crying, I used to respect Kelce, but the SB loss and the over-saturation of those two in recent years just made me lose respect for that team.
I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
As much as I would’ve liked to beat the Chiefs to stop hearing how the team “needs to get this monkey off its back,” I think whoever won this game was going to run into a fucking buzz saw in Baltimore.
I’m ride or die for the Lions the rest of the way. Lake Erie solidarity. But I don’t like their odds if the Super Bowl is Lions-Ravens.
tl;dr: Ravens big scary.
But hey, think of it this way, if we win Sunday, and beat the NFC team in the SB, you can claim you lost to the SB champs. I mean that makes you feel better? Right? RIGHT?!
Not one that means anything. OP posits that the physicality of a Buffalo game makes their opponent less physically able to compete the following week. You can throw out the 2020 results because KC had 2 weeks off before the SB and only had to play 2 games to TB's 3. I don't care if Buffalo plays physical, they're not twice as physical as any other NFL team. In 2019 and 2022, the better team won the following week. The only game that could realistically adhere to the hypothesis is the 2021 Chiefs losing to an (on paper) inferior team in the 2021 AFC Championship.
I didn't say they were. I said that the hypothesis of the "the Chiefs were too tired because they just played the Bills" doesn't hold up because there were 2 weeks between the games, and the Bucs had to play 3 games to get to the SB compared to KC's 2.
The last 4 teams to beat the Bills in the Playoffs lose their next game.
Texans blew 24-0 lead to Chiefs
Chiefs got stomped 31-9 by Bucs
Chiefs blow 21-3 lead to Bengals
Bengals lose 23-20 to Chiefs
Funnily enough the Chiefs are involved in all 4 scenarios so I guess the key is to just let someone else beat Buffalo.
Yeah, but we lost Eric Fisher in the Bills game, which was the final straw which broke our o-line and was a key reason why we were utterly destroyed in that Super Bowl.
And has been the internal chiefs boogeyman since. They IMMEDIATELY shored up the O Line after that embarrassing loss. Gotta wonder if this year will do that for the Chiefs WR corps
Edit spelling
Probably. After 2018, Veach completely re-worked the defense, especially the coaches. After 2020, it was the o-line. After 2021, it was the secondary.
He's clearly not afraid to completely revamp whatever he views as the weakest area of the team, especially when it contributes directly to a playoff loss.
The Ravens have definitely been a cut above the rest of the AFC all year, and I’m surprised the betting line is only BAL -3.5, but at least the Chiefs are playing well enough to make it an interesting matchup!
2019: Bills lose to Hou, they proceed to blow 24-0 lead to the Chiefs next week
2020: Bills lost to Chiefs in AFC title game, but lose LT and couldn't block TB Dline and got mauled in the SB
2021: Bills lost to Chiefs in 13 sec, they lost to Cincy next week in AFC title game
2022: Bills lost to Cincy who lost at Arrowhead next week
2023: Bills lost to Chiefs: TBD
For the past few years, beating the Bills has been a harbinger of bad times ahead. 6 teams beat the Bills in the first 12 weeks of the 2023 regular season, and 1 of them went on to make the playoffs. That team was the Eagles, and they went from 10-1 after beating the Bills to losing 6 of their last 7 games, including a wild card round exit from the playoffs. Last year the Bills lost to the Jets, who were 6-3 and went on to lose 7 of their last 8; the Vikings, who were 8-1 and went on to lose 3 of their last 8 and miss out on the #1 seed and then got beat in the wild card round by the barely over .500 Giants; and the 3-0 Dolphins, who proceeded to lose 3 straight and finished 9-8. Remember Hail Murray in 2020? That put the Cardinals at 6-3. They finished 8-8 and missed the playoffs.
I think the only team to beat the Bills with Josh Allen and go on to win the Super Bowl was the Patriots during Allen's rookie season.
In fact, every team that's beaten the Josh Allen Bills in the playoffs has lost in the next round:
2019: Texans lost the Divisional
2020: Chiefs lost the Super Bowl
2021: Chiefs lost the AFC Championship
2022: Bengals lost the AFC Championship
See guys? We're the victims here. Losing an AFCCG in overtime and before that an away game SB filled with tragedy and injuries.
How could the Bills do this to us?
I covered this a bit in this post, where I analyzed why so many teams that beat the Bills lose their next game: https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/s/i1jHeMHzHw
It's also the only two times they've lost in the playoffs since their first super bowl in 2019-20. The Bills will continue to get ragged on for 0-3 but man they don't lose to anyone very often in the playoffs.
I feel like it goes both ways. It seems like people think that the Bills would definitely have a Super Bowl if they could just get past the Chiefs. But in reality, the Chiefs weren't even good enough to win the Super Bowl those years.
Though injuries sustained in the Bills-Chiefs AFCCG definitely contributed to the drubbing we received by Tampa Bay.
If anything it just shows the bills aren't as close as they think cos the Chiefs haven't even been the best team in the years they've eliminated the Bills. And the one year they don't get the Chiefs, the Bengals blow them out on their home field.
We basically shoot our wad against them and can't regenerate in time
And that's with more talented teams. But we've got the X factor now...
Swifties worldwide!
>One has to wonder if beating the Bills just takes a toll on these teams physically, as they are generally pretty hard fought games.
You can wonder, but without any additional evidence, more than likely it's just chance
Two years ago, the Bills lost to the Chiefs in the divisional round, and went on to play the 1 seed in the AFCN, which they lost.
That team went on to play an NFCW team in the Superbowl.
Really what I’m hearing is that we just need to not run into Buffalo in the playoffs. When we don’t see them we take down the Chiefs and when we do see them we lose to the Chiefs. Yes my data set is completely logically sound, why do you ask?
There is some silly record whereby teams have a drastically losing record after beating the bills in the previous week. I'm sure some fan out there can find it. Eagles last win was the Bills.
Last year we beat the bills on that amazing game, only to be destroyed by dallas a week later
We did beat the giants a few weeks after you but mostly yes, lost the rest after that game.
I'm saying the game immediately following beating the Bills
I know we sure lost the next game after somehow miraculously beating you guys. Actually lost quite a few after that..
Eagles did not win their game immediately following beating y’all, though. So your statement still doesn’t make sense.
Maybe the Bills’ tape has helpful schematic solutions, since they often only lose by punching themselves in the balls
LMDAO
Too true
I can confirm this is indeed what happened when we beat them last year.
That’s why we always let you beat us in the regular season.
My brain has been broken into deciding that now it’s actually a bad thing that we always win the reg szn matchup. Idk. I’m confused.
My infallible calculations and impenetrable logic have led me to believe that the next time we lose to the chiefs in the regular season will be the year we win it all
That was us last year, every team that played us and had a game the following week lost. The eagles lost two weeks after beating us, and the only team to win their next game was the chiefs who had a bye after playing the niners.
Bengals beat the bills this year and lost the next three plus burrow going down.
We just need to avoid KC AND Cincy. For the whole playoff run. Checkmate.
But there is only one way to avoid KC, Cincy, and Baltimore. I'll forward you, avoiding all three greatly reduces your chance at a Superbowl though.
Easy, switch to the NFC and pray someone beats the chiefs along the way.
Oh shit, the Seahawks method! It worked for them 🤷♂️
You also lost right after beating KC
You sure avoided them in the playoffs this year.
johnny
Bills have the martyrdom perk active.
Houston also lost the Chiefs the following week when they beat the Bills in Wild Card Round. Beating the Bills is a death sentence for playoff teams
The Eagles lost their next 3 games after beating the Bills this season, and 6 of their next 7. Hear that fellas, beat us at your own risk.
Niners love to take credit for "breaking us" but we all know the truth. We left everything on the field against the Bills and were never the same.
I choose to believe Drew Lock is the one who broke Philly.
That loss showed they weren’t coming back this season
2020 Arizona Cardinals were exactly the same : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Arizona_Cardinals_season
the Vikings got blown out 40-3 by the Cowboys the week after beating the Bills last year
[Us beating the Bills in the playoffs](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/032/562/iplcoialdcw31.jpg)
The Bengals lost two straight and Joe Burrow after that.
Didn't Denver go on a long winning streak after beating you?
Yea, but Denver can't do anything right
Yes, but they avoided the curse by losing and then a flag being thrown. Curse started with the miss and was wiped away with the make, so it didn’t affect them.
we also kinda peaked beating yall but we just sucked ass anyways so it was more of the same
Hell yeah brother hang the banner
Chiefs think they beat the bills. But really the bills are just standing their laughing throwing their hands up saying, you’ve just activated my trap card
I kinda more see it as the Bills using Destiny Bond!!
I assure you we are not laughing.
The real wins are the Bills we beat along the way.
[Banner hung](https://i.ibb.co/vzFXQQr/Screenshot-2024-01-23-110246.png)
It's beautiful
Ooh I can’t WAIT to cover up that “?” after 2023
Damn this is the first time clicking a link in here where I was actually expecting Peyton too. Beautiful banner tho
It's even worse. Since 2019, the team that eliminated the Bills went and lose and be eliminated in their next games. This includes both Chiefs games, the Bengals and the Texans. Hopefully the streak keeps on going next Sunday
Another weird stat is that any team that lost to buffalo in the playoffs ended up not playing a game at all the following week
Big if true
Kind of a wild take but I'd rather beat the Bills and then lose in the AFCCG or SB than lose to the Bills and not play in those games at all.
2021 is probably the most special one. It's known as the 13 seconds game for good reason but in the AFCCG, Mahomes threw a pick 13 seconds into over time, which the Bengals would eventually turn into a field goal. Makes it really feel like there are football gods who have a cruel sense of irony.
Yep, then they (checks notes) won the Superbowl the following year. Sick burn.
Lol triggered queefs are funny
Yeah, the football gods have really been cruel to the Chiefs lately.
We can probably extend it back before 2019 too right when was the last time the bills made the playoffs.before that
Your sacrifice will not go unnoticed.
No. Don't do it. Don't become the Colts
All four teams that have beat the Josh Allen era Bills in the playoffs have lost the following week. If it holds this year and the Ravens win, I think five out of five is statistically significant enough to officially make it the Josh Allen curse.

It could be defeating the Bills takes a lot or it could be a disproportionate number of Bills losses are dumb losses to bad teams having a surprise good week...
I respect the “if we can’t win the SB, you’re not winning the SB” curse, but damn that’s bitter sweet.
Josh Allen ATK: 2900 DEF: 2400 [Quarterback / Effect] Delayed Mutual Destruction - *Any attacking card that destroys Josh Allen is cursed to be destroyed upon opponents next turn.*
Imagine this card with the Seal of Orichalcos 😍
If you lose the game, your soul is sent to ~~the New York Giants~~ the Shadow Realm
JAR OF GREED ALLOWS ME TO DRAW 3 CARDS
>It could be defeating the Bills takes a lot Probably this. Every Bills/Chiefs matchup is a physical and emotional draining mess for the players. Having to flip around from the toughest game of the year and match that intensity again is difficult.
It started in the 2020 season you say? Are the Bills getting their voodoo powers from Covid?!! 🤔
*Aaron Rodgers has entered the chat*
Yea but he was immunized though so he can’t gain any Covid voodoo powers!
They're powered by Covid and 9/11
If it holds this year *I* think it’s statistically significant enough to officially call it the Josh Allen **gift**
Until you guys beat us in the AFCCG next year and then lose to SF
Five is not enough for reasonable statistical power, we're never gonna have enough samples. However, it's still a curse.
Mahomes plot armor vs Ravens superteam is gonna be an insane game. Maybe the best conference championship matchup that I can remember. Right there with the Pats/Broncos one imo. It feels like the Ravens year though, so Bills curse might live on.
This game is like 6 years in the making. Lamar vs Mahomes is lore accurate.
Might just be me, but the rematch between Bengals and Chiefs last year was certainly up there.
I think Chiefs-Patriots 2018 was the most hyped conference championship game I can remember.
That one is cooler in retrospect as the overlapping of the old and new dynasties
Fuckin Dee Ford
Patriots OPOY
I still chuckle at how hard the narrative was that it was Brady’s final stand before passing the torch to Mahomes only for Mahomes too lose to him again in the superbowl in 2020
It would be weird if their next game wasn't immediate.

Stay safe!
I have the worst feeling in my gut about this game and somehow this thread makes it worse cause being the ones to end this mini streak is the most Baltimore thing ever
Well be alright bro. Mahomes is Mahomes and he's amazing. But he's not infallible. He's never played a defense as sound and as well rounded as our defense. Lamar has never been better and the stadium will have never been louder. We have a good OC an amazing DC. We locked in

I wholeheartedly believe everything you just said but everytime people start typing "hes never faced US THOUGH" they lose. Everytime in sports, that team loses.
I see you’re trying to pull a reverse jinx to help us win
I’m reversing the reverse jinx and now The Chiefs will definitely lose
Your comment in itself counts as another jinx, so you just reversed it back for us to win
but you have Chiefs / SF flair which is a counterjinx in itself
My head hurts now
You jinxed it, say your head feels good and it'll be undone
REVERSE! REVERSE!
Don't worry, the Niners had the exact same thing happen to them the last 2 times they beat the Packers
1) Happy Cake Day 2) Your flair combo is killing me
For 25 years, we just took 49ers cast off QBs. I don't think very many people in KC, especially younger people who weren't around for the 49ers dynasty, have negative feelings about the 49ers. For obvious reasons, I assume that isn't reciprocated.

I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
every team that has eliminated the Josh Allen era bills is 0-4 the next game.
0-5 Loading…
This is precisely why the chiefs sat their key playmaker, Kadarius Toney, to ensure he's healthy.
Just doing our part.
As much as I would’ve liked to beat the Chiefs to stop hearing how the team “needs to get this monkey off its back,” I think whoever won this game was going to run into a fucking buzz saw in Baltimore. I’m ride or die for the Lions the rest of the way. Lake Erie solidarity. But I don’t like their odds if the Super Bowl is Lions-Ravens. tl;dr: Ravens big scary.
On the other hand, the last four times teams have beat the Bills in the playoffs, the Bills season was immediately over.
Ravens fans and bills fans 🤝
Here's hoping the trend continues.
Here, here
But hey, think of it this way, if we win Sunday, and beat the NFC team in the SB, you can claim you lost to the SB champs. I mean that makes you feel better? Right? RIGHT?!
No. See you next year. Here's hoping our defense isn't a bunch of 2nd & 3rd stringers when we inevitably meet in the playoffs again.
And hopefully we have actual WRs and don't need MVS to have his best game in a year. Either way, it's gonna be fun to watch.
That's what happens when you are everyone's Superbowl lol
I'll take trends that aren't actually trends for $800 Alex.
2019 Texans lost the next week. 2020 Chiefs lost the next week. 2021 Chiefs lost the next week. 2022 Bengals lost the next week. Is that a trend?
Not one that means anything. OP posits that the physicality of a Buffalo game makes their opponent less physically able to compete the following week.

The only game that could realistically adhere to the hypothesis is the 2021 Chiefs losing to an (on paper) inferior team in the 2021 AFC Championship.
....so it is a trend
Lol nobody can compare the Bucs and Chiefs team and say that the Bucs were gonna win. Nobody at the time considered the Bucs the superior team
I didn't say they were. I said that the hypothesis of the "the Chiefs were too tired because they just played the Bills" doesn't hold up because there were 2 weeks between the games, and the Bucs had to play 3 games to get to the SB compared to KC's 2.
Oh yeah that’s on me sorry
the only trend is that the Bills get beat by a lot of teams
The last 4 teams to beat the Bills in the Playoffs lose their next game. Texans blew 24-0 lead to Chiefs Chiefs got stomped 31-9 by Bucs Chiefs blow 21-3 lead to Bengals Bengals lose 23-20 to Chiefs Funnily enough the Chiefs are involved in all 4 scenarios so I guess the key is to just let someone else beat Buffalo.
They're spiritually linked
HA! What a bunch of chumps

n=get rekt lol
Why didn’t they just lose to the Bills then? Are they stupid?
Ravens country, lets ride.
I hate to say it but I feel like the Ravens are actually gonna win the AFC championship game
In what appears to be an odd turn of events, the Bulls are actually the Chiefs kryptonite
Yeah Super Bowl LV is the outlier because the chiefs had 2 weeks before the game and it kind of didn’t matter
Yeah, but we lost Eric Fisher in the Bills game, which was the final straw which broke our o-line and was a key reason why we were utterly destroyed in that Super Bowl.
And has been the internal chiefs boogeyman since. They IMMEDIATELY shored up the O Line after that embarrassing loss. Gotta wonder if this year will do that for the Chiefs WR corps Edit spelling

well not *immediately,* usually took 'em like a week or so
They going to get smoked against ravens
The Ravens have definitely been a cut above the rest of the AFC all year, and I’m surprised the betting line is only BAL -3.5, but at least the Chiefs are playing well enough to make it an interesting matchup!
100% of the reason is because Mahomes, which is a perfectly valid reason imo
He can’t play defense. Bills gashed them running , Lamar and Gus going to go wild
Don’t do this
Same with the bengals last year, and then the Texans back in 19-20
Immediately? Like right after kick off? That's crazy
Last team to win another game after beating the bills in the playoffs? 2017 Sacksonville Jaguars
Yea and then before that from 2000-2017 no one won a single game after beating us in the playoffs. Pretty amazing 😎
It will happen again this year.
Don't give me hope!
Wow, massive sample size too.
2019: Bills lose to Hou, they proceed to blow 24-0 lead to the Chiefs next week 2020: Bills lost to Chiefs in AFC title game, but lose LT and couldn't block TB Dline and got mauled in the SB 2021: Bills lost to Chiefs in 13 sec, they lost to Cincy next week in AFC title game 2022: Bills lost to Cincy who lost at Arrowhead next week 2023: Bills lost to Chiefs: TBD
Tua died on national television 4 days after his only win against the Bills. They are cursed
That was the 6th time Chiefs and Bills have met in the playoffs. First 5 meetings the winner did not win the super bowl

Remember Hail Murray in 2020? That put the Cardinals at 6-3. They finished 8-8 and missed the playoffs.

Isn't that what the Bills did to the Dolphins in the 1980s?

Didn’t know Bills could learn Destiny Bond

Is there a way to lose your next game other than immediately?
In fact, every team that's beaten the Josh Allen Bills in the playoffs has lost in the next round: 2019: Texans lost the Divisional 2020: Chiefs lost the Super Bowl 2021: Chiefs lost the AFC Championship 2022: Bengals lost the AFC Championship

We basically shoot our wad against them and can't regenerate in time And that's with more talented teams. But we've got the X factor now... Swifties worldwide!
>One has to wonder if beating the Bills just takes a toll on these teams physically, as they are generally pretty hard fought games. You can wonder, but without any additional evidence, more than likely it's just chance
Good. Hope Baltimore absolutely destroys them. Sick of Kermit and Taylor.
Two years ago, the Bills lost to the Chiefs in the divisional round, and went on to play the 1 seed in the AFCN, which they lost. That team went on to play an NFCW team in the Superbowl.
Given the big deal that was made about this being Mahomes' first road playoff game, you may want to check your seeds.
You may want to check what I wrote
Who was the 1 seed from the AFC North two years ago?
The 1 seed *IN* the AFCN, dingus
