Momentum builds for cancellation of Bills-Bengals game

The problem is that this could open the option of teams refusing to play if their player goes down while they are trailing in the game. The Dolphins were down 6-7 to the Bengals with the ball and 5 min left in the 1st half, when Tua was badly concussed. If McDaniel has refused to play on, and the league declared a no contest, the Dolphins would be a leg up on their competition right now. McDermott was universally praised, but the real heroes were the medical staff, and sooner or later teams will use this as a tactic when they lose a key player in a tight game. Can I say with certaintly this didn't enter McDermott's calculus? Not 100%
