    They didn't kick it because the timeout was called.  They were going to if there wasn't going to be any time left.

    Exactly. I don't understand what people don't understand. The timeout was 100% the right call.

     

    It wasn't like they were trying to rush the FG team on with 8 seconds and no timeouts. They had 20 seconds. If the clock would've kept running, they'd have kicked it because they have nothing to lose at that point. 

     

    Once you call the TO, then if they miss it, they're giving the ball to Josh Allen at midfield with about 15 seconds and 2 timeouts. Pretty much automatic points for the Bills at that point.

    I don’t know what to tell you guys. McD is awful. Calling a TO there is so scared / conservative. Let them rush FG unit on ! My god

    They had 20 seconds. there's no "rush" there. The fact that he called the TO actually made TB not even attempt the field goal, taking a possible 3 points off the board. Their kicker has already made a 57 yarder in that direction. At least with the timeout, if they do miss the FG, you'll get the ball at midfield with 15 seconds and 2 timeouts. 

     

    This feels like just looking for something to complain about. It was the right decision, and TB didn't get points.

    I think the "let's extend Josh's career by turning him into a pocket QB" era is officially over.

    And the thing is, it's not even all about him running. It's the THREAT of him running that is huge. When there's no threat of him running, defenses prepare very differently.
