The Buffalo Bills are finally getting a chance to play the Kansas City Chiefs in their house in the playoffs. This is the best chance Josh Allen and the Bills have had in recent memory to take down the Chiefs and push their ticket to the AFC championship.
After getting the big news earlier today that elite Bills all pro cornerback Taron Johnson cleared concussion protocol and is now trending towards likely playing tonight, the Bills get more optimistic news about another corner on their team. It is now looking like the Bills wont be as injured as everyone thought they would be.
Buffalo Bills Are Optimistic Rasul Douglas Will Play
Taron Johnson is a huge boost for the Bills defense as they will need their corners playing at their best if they want to stop Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in the playoffs. Now they are getting more good news ahead of the game that corner Rasul Douglas is optimistic he will be able to play tonight as well.
One source told the media that it is a “we’ll see” status for Douglas tonight and that how he looks in the pregame warm up will determine his playing status for tonight. To have both Douglas and Jonson in the lineup tonight would be huge as they would go a long way in helping the Bills stop the Chiefs offense.
Douglas is going to prepare as if he is playing and if he looks and feels good in the warm up we will see him in the starting lineup tonight. These would both be huge boosts as Buffalo has numerous injuries to their defense and any players that can go will be helpful in stopping Mahomes.
Is This The Best Chance Josh Allen Has To Beat The Kansas City Chiefs
If both Douglas and Johnson are in the starting lineup, the defense should be firing and Josh Allen should know that this is the best chance in his career so far to take down the Chiefs. While there are many other injuries to the defense, they should have more than enough to take down a Chiefs team that has not been at its best this season.
Either way this is huge news for the defense that has just suffered injury after injury throughout the whole year, but now in the playoffs they are looking to get healthy. Usually the teams that are most healthy at the end of the year are the teams that go the furthest in the post season. This season for Buffalo has been up and down, and definitely down when it comes to injuries.
Having both Douglas and Johnson in the lineup may be one of the keys in taking down the Chiefs. No matter what, this will be another huge game in the legacy of Josh Allen Vs Mahomes, that many are now calling the new quarterback rivalry like Peyton Manning Vs Tom Brady. If there is any real comparison to be made then Allen will have to win one in the playoffs to make it a real rivalry.
