How to watch Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs: NFL Week 6 time, TV channel, live stream

The Buffalo Bills visit the Kansas City Chiefs at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, October 16 (10/16/2022) in one of the biggest matchups of NFL Week 6.

The game will be televised nationally at 4:25 p.m. ET on local CBS networks and can be streamed live on fuboTV, Paramount Plus and other live TV services.

Both teams are tied 4-1 at the start of the season and command of the AFC is at stake for the matchup. Kansas City earns a narrow 30-29 win over the Las Vegas Raiders while Buffalo defeated the Steelers 38-3 last weekend.

The last time these teams met was at the AFC Divisional Round Game, where Kansas City’s offense outlasted Buffalo’s enough to win on an overtime touchdown and end the Bills’ season. This time around, Kansas City looks shattered going into the game with starting linebacker Willie Gay Jr. already out and first-round draft pick Trent McDuffie and cornerback Rashad Fenton also in doubt.

Story from The Associated Press

ORCHARD PARK, NY (AP) — For a result that ranks among the most frustrating in his 24 NFL seasons, Bills coach Sean McDermott appeared relaxed Wednesday when he was asked to relive the nightmare of Buffalo’s recent trip to Kansas City to experience.

McDermott even managed to crack a few grins, as if welcoming questions about Buffalo hitting a three-point in the final 13 seconds of settling a 42-36 loss to the Chiefs in an AFC divisional playoff game in January. had wasted the lead.

“Well, I mean, that’s what happened. It’s part of our past,” he said.

“You learn from things like that and you move forward and you’re not afraid to learn from things and correct things and adapt and evolve,” McDermott added. “I’m just comfortable with this football team, comfortable going out and training today and trying to make us better.”

As much as McDermott has been open about raising the issue with reporters, the game called “13 Seconds” is something he hasn’t addressed with his team as Buffalo prepares to play in Kansas City on Sunday.

“No. I don’t think it’s necessary,” he said. “You’re aware of that. And this is a new team in many ways. And we’ve already shown that in many ways this year. And this team will take on an identity of their own.”

At 4-1, the Bills are in the familiar position of having won four or more of their first five games of a season for a fourth straight year.

And the Chiefs (4-1) make a familiar opponent as the non-division rivals meet for the fifth time in three years, with Kansas City winning three of four, including both playoff meetings.

What McDermott encourages are the bills, which offer insights into an identity of overcoming adversity. Despite having three blowout wins, including a 38-3 win over the Steelers last weekend, the Bills have also persevered.

After a 21-19 loss in Miami that left Buffalo thin from injuries and exhausted from the South Florida humidity, the Bills rebounded from a 17-point deficit in a 23-20 win over Baltimore the following week.

It was an outing that saw Buffalo eventually win a game by a point after being decidedly down by seven or fewer points in the last seven. And it was the largest deficit Buffalo had overcome in 11 years.

For McDermott, the win over the Ravens was a tangible sign of progress.

“When you go through things like that, it doesn’t define you, but it refines you when you do it right,” he said, comparing the loss to the Chiefs to the win over Baltimore. “It makes the things we do better because you do a lot of research, a lot of soul searching.”

An offseason of soul searching led McDermott to introduce the phrase “Find A Way,” in reference to his team overcoming obstacles. The Bills also went beyond messaging by building an inconsistent pass rush, highlighted by the addition of NFL active sacked leader Von Miller.

In an electrifying playoff shootout that saw the Chiefs and Bills trade leads four times in the last two minutes, the final score depended on Buffalo failing to sack Patrick Mahomes.

Regulation’s final drive featured Mahomes completing two passes for 44 yards to set up Harrison Butker’s 49-yard field goal on time. The result could have been quite different if Buffalo’s Jerry Hughes hadn’t gotten half a second late to Mahomes before completing his pass to Travis Kelce.

Miller is more than familiar with facing the Chiefs, having spent his first more than nine seasons with AFC West rivals Denver. Yet he doesn’t have to carry the baggage of Bill’s loss.

“I think the good thing for me is that I don’t know what happened. You know, ignorance is bliss,” Miller said.

“It’s an honor and a privilege to be on Bill’s side this time and I’ll do my best,” he added. “They will do plays, we will do plays. And we just have to find a way to make another move.

Coming behind the loss to the Chiefs, center Mitch Morse said there’s only one lesson to be learned if Buffalo’s season ends the way it did.

“It burns until the season is over. But time flies,” Morse said. “One learns from these experiences. You understand that games are really never over until the clock hits zero, no matter where you are, especially there.”
