Injuries no matter how severe cost teams playoff positioning, etc. all of the time… that’s the reality of sports.
If Buffalo was too “traumatized” to continue playing the game or to finish the game this week… fine… but there should be consequences to that in terms of wins/losses and playoff seeding.
