Mason Rudolph on Loss to Bills: "We Shot Ourselves in the Foot"

Doug Gottlieb: "What is the usual MO of officials once you get to the playoffs?"

Mason Rudolph: "Well, I don't know if I can still get fined or not, since my season is over, as far as being critical of refs. But yeah, the third down play, I thought there was contact there. Credit the DB, he did a good job disguising it by pulling that hip low, and it's a hard thing to see when George Pickens is going 100mph. I think we had our opportunities and we shot ourselves in the foot at times, myself included with a turnover in the red zone. Any time you're in a venue like that in Buffalo with that crowd, playing a good team, you can't turn the ball over, and we did. There were a couple finicky calls down the stretch there when they had the ball to ice the game that could have gone either way, but like I said, we shot ourselves in the foot."
