“Making a Big Deal”: Josh Allen Reveals How Buffalo Bills Players Reacted to the Ken Dorsey Freak Out During Week 3
Over the previous two weekends, Microsoft Surface tablets have been severely damaged at football matches. Ken Dorsey, the offensive coordinator for the Buffalo Bills, vented his anger on his iPad during today’s game between his team and the Miami Dolphins as the Dolphins went on to win. Josh Allen got the chance to weigh in on the incident, as it was still being discussed two days later in the NFL.
On the last play of Sunday’s defeat to the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills were unable to stop the time, which resulted in offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey having a major breakdown in the coaches’ booth.
Dorsey’s response could have been justified, but he undoubtedly had other options for venting his rage.
Josh Allen weighs in on the Ken Dorsey incident
Josh Allen said: “And that’s not him being mad that we lost, that’s not him being angry that we didn’t perform. … He was so upset because, and this is from his mouth, he loves us and he appreciates us so much for putting everything we had on the line for 93 plays and 105 (degrees) 110 (degrees) that’s what it felt like on the field, he was upset we felt the way we felt. And as a player looking at your offensive coordinator, having that much emotion and care for the game, we prepared so hard that he wants to win, he wants to do everything in his power to win and guys see that, and they truly believe that’s a great sign from an offensive coordinator. It’s someone who cares so much about, one, his players, two, the gameplan he’s putting in – he shows so much pride in everything that he does. I know people might be making a big deal out of it but as players, we freaking love seeing that.”
Josh Allen is correct when he says that people wanted to make a big deal out of Ken Dorsey freaking out because they always want to exaggerate a certain occurrence.
Tom Brady, the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, slammed a Surface tablet into the ground last weekend following a failed throw by his team against the New Orleans Saints. In order to use Surface tablets instead of the paper-based approach for assessing plays on the sidelines, Microsoft teamed up with the NFL back in 2014.
