The very next play might be a Bills blitz where Burrow's arm is hit while he throws, it's a pick-6 for the Bills, and Burrow is injured.
A game is 60 minutes, not 9 minutes. It's ridiculous calling the game for one team or the other. I would despise the NFL if they did that. A no-contest (which hurts the Bills, Bengals, Ravens and helps the Chiefs) or a resumed contest (which might help the Dolphins if Tua gets a week off to recover) are the only options that exist.
I agree. If the game was deeper into play, then we could potentially talk about this. However, a little over halfway through the first quarter with a four point margin is nowhere near close enough to have that discussion. I am personally fine with a no contest. If the NFL goes this route, I won't be complaining.
