The Internet Hasn't Forgotten About the Buffalo Bills Coach's 9/11 Trip-Up

The Buffalo Bills kept their playoff hopes alive on Sunday Night Football last week, beating the Kansas City Chiefs 20-17, thanks to what would have been a game-winning touchdown drive for KC was negated by wide receiver Kadarius Toney lining up offside. It’s a penalty that incensed Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Yet, there’s another story regarding this game; it relates to the Buffalo Bills.

In case you missed it, someone is leaking stories about head coach Sean McDermott and his channeling of the 9/11 hijackers at team practices in 2019. McDermott immediately apologized after he saw this team-building exercise fall flat. That hasn’t stopped people from trolling the team before and after the game: 

McDermott isn’t going to get fired over this story. He obviously would have been years ago if the front office felt differently. For now, people mocking McDermott provides a moment of levity in an otherwise dour news cycle.
