bills vs chiefs Bills TE Dalton Kincaid on fourth-down miss vs. Chiefs: 'Sucks a lot'

 

Steve Spagnuolo fooled Josh Allen on the biggest play of the AFC Championship Game.

The Kansas City Chiefs guru defensive coordinator sent a blitz at Allen on a potential game-deciding fourth-and-5, getting immediate pressure. K.C. rushers did a good job disguising the blitz pre-snap and surprised the Buffalo Bills quarterback.

Allen drifted right into pressure but avoided a sack just long enough to heave a prayer downfield. Tight end Dalton Kincaid was open, turned back to see Allen's chuck and made a desperation dive at the pigskin. However, the wobbler clanged off his arms.

The miss -- a play Kincaid noted he should make -- spelled doom for Buffalo, who fell to the Chiefs once again, 32-29.

A visibly distraught Kincaid said after the game that the missed opportunity "sucks a lot."

"Josh got the ball off. He was pressured, and it was hanging up there and I just wasn't able to catch it," Kincaid said after the loss, via New York Upstate. "Right now, it obviously hurts a lot, and it's going to linger for a while, but eventually, you've got to move on. And hopefully, you grow from this, and I believe that will be the case, but for the time being, it's going to hurt a lot."
