Josh Allen explains why Bills players 'loved seeing' OC Ken Dorsey's end-of-game meltdown
It was a tough Sunday for the Bills in Miami. Despite running 90 plays, Buffalo scored just 19 points in the sweltering Florida heat. They even had the glorious “Butt Punt” work in their favor, only to waste the safety and ensuing possession in an eventual 21-19 loss.
That led to arguably the biggest public moment of Week 3 when offensive Ken Dorsey positively lost it in the booth as the final seconds ticked off the clock. In the aftermath, Dorsey seemed to draw a lot of criticism and ire around pockets of the football world for his anger while on camera.
On the latest episode of NFL Network personality Kyle Brandt’s podcast, "Kyle Brandt’s Basement," Josh Allen hopped on the show to clarify the hoopla around Dorsey. In short, the superstar quarterback and his teammates loved seeing how much Dorsey cared about getting the win for them.
Allen said Dorsey was even the one who showed him the video of the meltdown.
“Our guys freaking loved seeing that," Allen said. "As a player looking at your offensive coordinator, having that emotion and care for the game, and you prepare so hard … he wants to win. He wants to do everything in his power to win. I know people might be making a big deal of it, but as players, we freaking love seeing that.”
There you have it. If one of the best quarterbacks in the sport says he’s good with some fiery public energy from his coach, then maybe this wasn’t really much of a controversial conversation, to begin with.
