With all we saw, the CPR, the crying players and fans, the uncertainly of life, the NFL’s first reaction was a directive of telling the players they have 5 mins to warmup. Thank goodness the coaches or players or someone stopped the madness. #Bills #Bengals

I still can’t believe they kneeled with how well Josh was playing. Beyond the stupidness of wasting a timeout before that last regulation opportunity, they still had a timeout. They just watched a 59-yard FG go in. You didn’t need much to give Bass the same shot. #Bills

Horrendous defense in final 13 seconds. But smarter choices could’ve made a difference in the final seconds. Put the Kickoff in play and KC runs 5-10 seconds off the clock. Hold Hill/Kelce on defense on the pass plays, take the 5-yard penalty for the case of wasting time. #Bills
