Using a time out on this will probably bite us in the butt later.

It was a decent spot to take a timeout and make sure we have a strategy to get 7 pts.

 

It is our best shot. Let us get some time to script some plays

 

A challenge burns more time than a TO

Just got McDermott era bingo with that challenge 

 

He remains the Wile E Coyote of game management.

Either way Dorsey has a lot of time to plan the next play. Expect a masterpiece!

Are you sure? It looked like it hit the ground

Hit the right fingers and popped up. Under the ball and on top of the ground

 

No chance its overturned

[Gunsgoodtime]

Honestly it looks like he really caught it, doubt it I'd overturned though because it's very close and hard to prove.   I never saw the ball hit the ground though

If we get a TD here, is McD smart enough to go for 2?

 

why go for two here ??

To me this entire game has been more about having so few answers when challenged. On offense and D... I honestly don't think there is much of a talent gap. Even as injured as our D is. But when you don't have answers everything becomes glaring. Everything is hard. Every bad play means too much.  Like you're trying to play in quicksand.  The Bengals don't convert on a down it does not matter, they'll dial something up and beat you on the next down. For the Bills it looks like an incompletion is trouble. One bad run, trouble. Just everything is so hard. Throw in two turnovers and you're done.

I don’t think it will be close enough to matter.

That's basically the play callee  going I don't know what to do, just run Josh

 

Well, they should have started this 2 drives ago.

[RichRiderBills]

Looks like it hit the ground. Fingers at best. Doubt they overturn. Seemed like a silly challenge...

I feel so bad for Allen. McD is wasting his prime years

 

But you know he wins a lot of games...

 

We're the Rivers Chargers. Tons of talent held back by mediocre coaching but enough wins each year to keep Norv Turner employed forever 

[KellyToTasker]

McDermott is meant to be a motivational speaker. Not a football coach. Bullets fly, he implodes. 

[All_Pro_Bills]

The challenge isn't worth the risk.  Even if its by chance  overturned.  They need those 3 timeouts to stop the clock after they score.  Lose the challenge and you only have 2 TOs. Just dumb

The defense just couldn't get off the field. That's been a problem 

It was a total team loss. Bills aren't as good as the Bengals. I can't even be mad. 

 

I saw it coming for a week. 

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

Looks like a catch to me. But they aren’t overruling it.

His guy upstairs told him it was a catch.

he is the head coach u have to know the situation

 

i have so had it with this guy.  

[Bubba Gump]

If McD called that challenge, he should be fired before the game ends. What a stoopid challenge.

[scuba guy]

That view showed it hit his hand and was a catch

[Dopey]

IMO it’s a big enough play that a challenge is worth it. It would be a first down. They should be calling a couple of plays while the review is in the process. 

[Bills fan since 87]

McD you are a fool
