Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey clearly wasn’t happy with his team’s performance in the waning moments of their 21-19 loss to the Miami Dolphins.
Buffalo wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie was ruled down around Miami’s 41-yard line with just nine seconds to go in Sunday’s game, and the Bills' offensive unit failed to get into formation in time to stop the clock and provide kicker Tyler Bass with a game-winning opportunity.
Dorsey, responsible for play-calling and game management as the team’s offensive coordinator, reacted aggressively to the missed opportunity and was briefly caught on camera smashing his headset, notes and tablet as the game ended.
A person off-camera appeared to block the camera from viewing Dorsey and other Bills coaches after CBS captured the first seven seconds of his reaction to the loss, which dropped Buffalo to a 2-1 record for the season and placed the team in second place in the AFC East, behind division rival and 3-0 Miami.
The ball ricocheted off Sherfield’s backside, traveling back out of the end zone and was ruled a safety, granting the Bills two points and the ball back on the ensuing kickoff with roughly one minute and 32 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.

While it was unclear exactly what about the play upset Dorsey enough to smash his league-issued tablet, Dorsey and Bills quarterback Josh Allen notably joked during a pre-season press conference that Dorsey would move from coaching from the sidelines into a booth above the field in order to avoid getting penalties due to his “fiery” personality, according to theNew York Post.
“I like to think I’m not too much of a psychopath,” Dorsey told reporters at the time, according to thePost. “It probably wouldn’t hurt to be up in the box in that regard.”
The Bills and Dolphins are scheduled to meet again in Buffalo for Week 15 of the NFL’s regular season in December.
