Also, the NFL said it never issued that "take a 5 minute break before resuming play" direction, so I'm not sure where that came from.


Likely some dumbass ESPN producer feeding that to Joe Buck off of an assumption or second hand knowledge. Or joe is a complete idiot and assumed that himself.

So much of the outrage is basically just ESPN fanning flames assuredly for cable news ratings rather than just staying calm and reporting what’s happening. But they’d much rather report outrage to us and demanded we all follow suit.

A lot of people don't like Joe Buck, but his professionalism can't be disputed. He handled the situation as well as could be expected and I would bet any amount of money that he didn't pull the 5-minute thing out of his arse. He knows better. Someone fed him that info and he went with it.

Hopefully one day down the road when the time is right, someone will do a 30-30 type report about last night and what all went into it.
