At 6-5, the Buffalo Bills are in the middle of a tight AFC playoff race. Coming off of back-to-back wins, they’re feeling pretty good, but they also have the red-hot Raiders on the schedule this weekend. Stress levels are probably pretty high at One Bills Drive, so LeSean McCoy relaxed the mood and had some fun on Thursday.

While the Bills’ quarterbacks warmed up, McCoy took some shots at firing a football into the net from about 20 yards out; the team's Twitter account shared a video of the hilarious attempts.

He went 0 for 3. Buffalo’s quarterbacks—in particular backups E.J. Manuel and Cardale Jones—got a good laugh out of McCoy’s struggles.

McCoy clearly isn’t the best at throwing the football, but he’s been doing just about everything else for the Bills this year. Though he’s been hampered by injuries, McCoy has rushed for 819 yards and nine touchdowns. He scored twice last week against Jacksonville.

McCoy is eighth in the league in rushing yards, and if he hadn’t gotten hurt, he would probably be competing for MVP. Currently, Vegas has Dallas running back Ezekiel Elliott as the favorite.

This seems like a good time to remind everyone that the Philadelphia Eagles traded McCoy for Kiko Alonso. Straight up.
