Jaguars' Shaquill Griffin takes dig at Bills' sideline 'energy' after upset: 'It’s like they don’t care'
Bills coach Sean McDermott said after the game 'They were ready to play and we weren’t'
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Buffalo Bills were served a healthy dose of humility on Sunday after the Jacksonville Jaguars managed to stop quarterback Josh Allen for just their second win of the season.
Cornerback Shaquill Griffin took a dig at the AFC East leaders after the game, saying Buffalo players acted as if "they don’t care" during the game.

He continued: "That’s one thing I kept preaching at everybody else. Look on the sidelines, watching them walking around, it’s like they don’t care. They don’t deserve this. Let’s show them why. So now we’ve got to continue that momentum."

"Credit to them. They came out, they wanted it more," he said. "We had a lot of little things add up to big things. I put the ball in danger too often. Hit us in the butt. Played like s---, excuse my language, but that starts with me."
