Bills only had 10 men on the field on final 4th and 1

this gets back to what i was saying last year about having a bills employee up in the box that does nothing but count players on the field.

 

they have a direct line to mcD's headset and they call down a timeout in those situations.

 

get a stupid intern up there, or even a monkey. such a simple fix to a surprisingly common nfl problem

Isnt there a rule that a team cant call back to back timeouts?

Wow. We really lucked out. Sure McD will make sure this doesn't happen again

Whats really bizarre is Matt Ryan said that the bills had 8 guys in the box so he went with the play action pass option. They only had 6 men in the box.😂

They couldn't have called a timeout, they had just called one before the play. It would have been a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

That's not true. Officials are supposed to ignore the attempt. Tell them you can't. If they do or have to allow it it's five yards.
