Bills’ Gailey upset over Johnson’s TD dance, and told him so

One day after Johnson’s ill-timed touchdown celebration contributed to the Bills’ 28-24 loss to the New York Jets, Gailey still wasn’t happy. Mostly, though, the coach lamented that his receiver’s celebration is all anyone is discussing.

“I think it was wrong. I told him so,” Gailey told reporters Monday. “What I hate is that game is remembered for his one action rather than a lot of good things he did in the game. I told him where I stand on it, and he knows exactly.”

Gailey said he addressed the team on the matter and that he doesn’t have any discipline planned for Johnson. Although he hopes Johnson’s days of extreme celebration are over, Gailey didn’t put the kibosh on touchdown happiness, saying “everybody likes to score.”

Gailey reiterated he believes it was wrong to make fun of Burress — who, consequently, didn’t seem mind — while also offering up some big-picture thinking.

“If I were to discipline everybody (for dumb mistakes), there wouldn’t be any players or coaches out there,” Gailey suggested. “Everybody makes mistakes.”
