In one of the biggest games of the entire NFL season, the Buffalo Bills lost a 37-34 heartbreaker against the Philadelphia Eagles in overtime on Sunday.
The loss shockingly dropped the Bills to a disappointing 6-6 on the season.
Needless to say, the defeat was a bitter pill to swallow for all in Buffalo … However, Rachel Bush, the wife of Bills safety Jordan Poyer, may have taken it harder than anyone.
Bush took to social media to express her disgust at the officiating during the game. The refs were responsible for several questionable calls which helped doom Buffalo.
“I haven’t said a word about the refs all year, but that loss of a TD is on them. This game will 100% be on them if it comes down to that,” Bush passionately wrote in an Instagram Story.
“When are we going to start holding them accountable and calling this out!? Enough give me a break, if you’re watching this game it’s more than clear.”
She specifically pointed to a crucial call in the late second quarter when Bills quarterback Josh Allen was flagged for intentional grounding.
Bush hated the call, and highlighted a moment when Eagles linebacker Haason Reddick seemed to grab Allen’s jersey, leading some to question if it should have been a horse-collar tackle…

“Josh Allen’s jersey is completely torn. Not sure how it’s not a horse collar. The ref had a perfect view too lmao. Insane,” a user posted, which Bush shared on her account…
The frustration continued as Bush reshared messages from other users, including a post featuring Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni in conversation with officials.
One post read, “Listen Nick, we’re doing all we can. The score would be worse if we weren’t,” adding to the mounting discontent over the officiating.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott spoke about the frustrating loss following the game.
“We didn’t make enough plays. We didn’t do enough or make enough plays and do enough on the coaching end,” he said.
How big of a factor was the poor officiating???

The pair were officially married on February 17th, 2018, and seem stronger than ever.
Poyer has raved about Bush as a mother … Earlier this year, he praised her on Instagram, stating: “Words can’t explain this woman as a mother as a wife and as a friend … Aliyah is so dam lucky to call her, her mother.”

Getting back to the Bills … Do you think they’ll be able to turn things around and make the playoffs?
If not, would they be among the most disappointing teams of the past ten years???
