absolutely.

a squibbed kickoff probably leaves them with less than 10 seconds.

then just one or two holding calls and they likely only have enough time for a hail mary attempt.

if you tackle the receivers the qb is going to take even longer to try to find someone. i doubt he would expect it and clock it. he might eventually take off to run, but they likely don't have enough time to run for a big gain.

i wish coaches were prepared for this.

No time gets taken off the clock if the chiefs return man fair catches the squib and if down between the 25 and end zone the ball gets advanced to the 25.

So there is more risk for the Bills if they fair catch the squib ahead of the 25. In that situation the chiefs could have had the ball beyond the 25 with 13 seconds left.

Bills played the last regulation kick off right.

The clock would have likely run out in regulation play.
