Top Reasons Why The Bills Lost to Carolina

by Jeff Wozer, Buffalo Sports Page Humorist

Here are funny-man Jeff Wozer’s thoughts on why the Bills lost to the Carolina Panthers.

  • Players felt self-conscious wearing white pants after Labor Day.
  • Offense didn’t want to reveal too much on tape for Denver to game-plan against next Sunday.
  • Players were still trying to wrap their heads around Scott Levin’s stunning return to Channel 2 news. More than once players could be overheard in huddle shouting, “I thought that dude retired.”
  • Instead of devising an offensive game plan coaches spent more time plotting how to take out a referee.
  • Wanted to showcase punter Colton Schmidt for Pro Bowl considerations.
  • Coach McDermott’s new iPhone 8 wouldn’t download How to Score in Football app.
  • Offense felt less time on field would reduce chances of ruining uniforms with stubborn grass stains.
  • Team bus arrived two hours late to stadium because GM Brandon Beane asked bus driver to drive by his old house.
  • Team feared if it scored it would ruin new running joke: What does the Bills offense have in common with a road construction zone? Both have no passing.
  • Coach McDermott erroneously believed unused timeouts could be redeemed for deep discounts on NFL Shop collectibles.
