He is still in concussion protocol. ANY time a player comes out of a game like that they will have to complete the protocol. It's a safe guard against teams/players using something like a pinched nerve as an official diagnosis when, in fact, it's really a concussion.
If it is a pinched nerve he should be able to (easily) pass the 5 day (minimum) protocol period. In the meantime he can't practice. Given the team's experience and the familiarity (already played this year) that's likely a non-factor.
I'd be shocked if he didn't play this weekend.
That's why the little guys are faster and quicker. They can get out of the way of freight trucks like that dude! Timex man!
I can’t wait to see what Andy,EB, and Kafka can come up with after rewatching the first Buffalo game. Gotta think they set some things up there.
Also betting that they morphed have hat 4th and 1 play from last week into something different and will run it in a huge spot either this week or on the SB

Buffalo is expected to make wholesale changes. I heard on sports radio the other day that Buffalo sent zero blitzes in first game. They also played a majority of defensive snaps with only 6 or 7 in the box. They did not think Reid would have the patience to keep running the ball against those fronts. They were wrong. KC ran the ball 46 times and kicked them up and down the field.
They won’t be dumb enough to do that again.
You can't blitz Mahomes, if you do, it just opens up the field and he will torch you. The best way to play him is rush 3 or 4, to put pressure on him, they have to do that. Then drop everyone in coverage like SD and Vegas did.
Mahomes has just chewed up any team that tries to blitz him, like Baltimore and others have tried to do in the past.
And hope you have the horses up front to get pressure rushing 4. If you can't do that, you are basically toast no matter what.
Well, it was both components that Buffalo screwed up before, only putting 6 or 7 in the box and never blitzing. They dared Reid to run and he stayed with the effective run game.
I expect them to change strategies. Tighten against the run and maybe blitz some.
The wildcard is PM’s foot/toe. Will his mobility be hurt? That is why I think Buffalo will try some blitzes. Will he be able to effectively extend plays?
