This will be a interesting football game as the Bills have lost their last 4 games while the Chiefs have played their best football of the season the last four weeks (all still losses).  The Bills will likely try to run the ball a lot this week with Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson against a Chiefs’ defense that is allowing 165.4 yards rushing per game and 5.1 yards per carry.  Trent Edwards should have time to throw the ball this week against a Chiefs’ defense that only has six sacks this season.  The Chiefs also allow 237.1 yards passing per game this season so look for Lee Evans to make a few huge plays in this football game.

The Chiefs should get a lot of points tomorrow so they have a chance to win this football game.  Still, they will have to outplay the Bills to win to even out the fact that Herman Edwards is the coach of the Chiefs.  The Chiefs have turned into a passing team with the stunning emergence of Tyler Thigpen at QB.  Thigpen should have time to throw the ball this week so Dwyane Bowe, Tony Gonzalez and Mark Bradley all should have decent games against a Bills’ defense that is allowing 202.4 yards passing per game.  This could also be the game that Larry Johnson finally gets going as the Bills are allowing 109.6 yards rushing per game and 3.9 ypc this season.

The Chiefs have signed 27-year old free agent Oliver Celestin.  Celestin played in 2 games for the Cardinals this season and he made 3 tackles.  He has now played in 50 games (4 starts) in his NFL career and he has made 59 tackles and defensed 3 passes.  Celestin should be able to help out on special teams and provide depth in the secondary for the Chiefs the rest of the season.

The Chiefs have decided to release TE John Paul Foschi and CB Tyron Brackenridge.  Foschi played in 7 games for the Chiefs this season and he had 1 tackle but didn’t catch any passes.  Brackenridge played in only 1 game for the Chiefs but he made 6 tackles.  The Chiefs won’t miss either of these guys.

The Chiefs have waived punter Steve Weatherford because starter Dustin Colquitt is ready to return from injury.  Weatherford punted the ball 12 times for 512 yards (42.7 avg) for the Chiefs this season.  He placed 1 punt inside the 20 but he had trouble with touchbacks (4 of them).  Colquitt is back from a groin injury and that should help the Chiefs big time.  He has punted the ball 37 times this season for the Chiefs for 1,772 yards (47.9 avg).  He has placed 14 punts inside the opposing 20-yard line and he only has three touchbacks.

The Chiefs have signed 26-year old Ricardo Colclough and 30-year old David Macklin to help out with depth in the secondary and on special teams.  Colclough has played in 36 games (0 starts) in his NFL career and he has made 60 tackles, has 2.5 sacks, defensed 7 passes and intercepted 1 pass.  David Macklin has played in 116 games (75 starts) in his NFL career and he has made 335 tackles, has 1 sack, defensed 54 passes and he has 14 interceptions (including 1 that he returned for a TD).  These were both good moves for the Chiefs as their defense needs all the help it can get.

The Chiefs have signed 29-year old QB Quinn Gray.  Gray will serve as Tyler Thigpen’s backup for now but he is more than capable of starting if something happens to him.  Gray played in 8 games for the Jaguars last season and he completed 80 of 144 passes (55.6%) for 986 yards with 10 TD passes and 5 interceptions (85.6 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 19 times for 57 yards (3.0 ypc).  Gray has now played in 11 games in his NFL career and he has completed 101 of 180 passes (56.1%) for 1,252 yards with 12 TD passes and 5 interceptions (88.5 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 24 times for 84 yards (3.5 ypc) with 2 TD runs.  The Chiefs have decided to cut loose Ingle Martin and go with just two QBs this season.

This game looks like a complete mis-match on paper as the Bucs are sitting at 5-3 while the Chiefs are 1-6 on the season.  The Bucs won’t likely overlook the Chiefs who played a solid game last week against the Jets before falling 28-24 late in the 4th quarter.  The Buccaneers should be able to do whatever they want to against a Chiefs’ D that is allowing 196.9 yards rushing and 207.9 yards passing per game.  The Bucs will probably come out throwing the ball in this game as the Chiefs only have 4 sacks this season.  That means that Jeff Garcia will have a lot of time to dissect the Chiefs’ D and with Joey Galloway back and Antonio Bryant excelling the Chiefs are in big trouble tomorrow.  The Bucs will likely give Ernest Graham a lot of work in this game with Warrick Dunn kinda gimpy and he should have a good game.

The Buccaneers have one of the best defenses in the NFL so Tyler Thigpen is unlikely to have near as much success as he had throwing the ball last week against the Jets.  The Chiefs would like to run the football but they won’t likely have much success without Larry Johnson against a Bucs’ D allowing only 88.9 yards rushing per game and 3.6 yards per carry.  The Chiefs have allowed 22 sacks this season so the Bucs will be bringing the heat against Tyler Thigpen who must limit his mistakes.  The Bucs already have 12 pickoffs this season and they will likely be paying a lot of attention to Dwyane Bowe and Tony Gonzalez.
