Hingsight is 20/20 but on the Bills last kickoff in regulation with 13 seconds left I cannot understand why they kicked the ball into the endzone resulting in no time coming off the clock. If they squib kick it and force KC to pick it up. Clock starts then and maybe 4-5 seconds come off the clock giving KC one play to get in FG range if possible. Bad clock management by the Bills.

But is was a game for the ages. Congrats to KC.
