The Bills survived on Sunday with two tush pushes in a row:

It should not be lost on anybody that the tush push saved the Bills’ season. That’s after Sean McDermott cried about the play over the summer, then the Bills voted to ban, failed, and proceeded to run it anyway, more than any other team not named the Philadelphia Eagles .

So the blatant hypocrisy is one thing, then the fact that they needed it to save their bacon in Jacksonville is even better. You can’t write a more compelling script. The Chiefs were finally out of the way and the Bills required the play they voted to ban just to get past the Jags in the Wild Card round.

Sean McDermott is a fraud and Josh Allen is a tush push merchant. Go Birds.
