The coaching carousel

I think it's a little cold that Buffalo is going to hire Joe Brady as their new Coach

It honestly makes no sense.

The Bills problems weren't with the coaching staff, it was with the roster their GM put together.  Firing McDermott was their way of saying they felt things weren't working, but then go and just hire their OC which will just keep things mostly the same.

The move would have been to replace the GM, not the HC, very odd to then end up hiring their OC instead.

I totally agree I wonder what they are going to do when they lose again next season

That's what happens when you let your QB in on the hiring process. 

 

Edit to add. 

 

Beane isn't going to say no to this, he has full control over the roster now. It's his show now and if it fails he can blame Allen because he was in on the decision making

Kinda head scratching unless McD was handcuffing the offense, but their top 5 offensive ranking doesn't scream that. I guess we'll see. 

Meanwhile...

I have to imagine there were very few outside candidates legitimately considering the position. Everybody around the NFL saw that press conference and how they talked about McDermott.

I think Joe Brady is a good offensive mind but who knows if he will be successful as a head coach. But now that he and everyone else knows what the bar for success is in the eyes of Bills ownership I think he's in over his head. I'll be surprised if he is as or more successful than McDermott was in the postseason.

Joe Brady rn:

4 offensive turnovers in the Denver game and the OC gets promoted.  Yes the Denver game that the owner listed specifically as the reason McD was fired....

LMFAO In what world is Joe Brady going to be better than Sean? How does that put them over the hump? Bills really are the Panthers of the AFC

I'll be curious to see if Joe Brady in his first HC stint follows the tendencies of our own head coach regarding the tunnel vision for the offense.

Absolutely a Top Ten Anime Betrayals moment 

I bet Brady was the choice all along. The didn’t exactly cast a wide net 

[Daddy_Uncle]

Firing McDermott to hire Joe Brady is one of the dumbest things I've seen

It was 5, (4 of them by Allen)…but who’s counting?
