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

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.

Absolutely a Top Ten Anime Betrayals moment 

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

      The coaching carousel

      Not when said QB is Josh Allen, it would be like when Andy Reid retires in the next few years and KC making the hire without involving Mahomes in the discussion at all. When you have a QB like they, they 100% should be involved in the discussions to make sure there is alignment and the QB/HC will mesh well together.  I'm sure they didn't just let him make the decision as that would be dumb, but it would be even dumber to have not involved him in the process at all.

      The press conference was ugly and would make any coach a little concerned about working for said owner. But HC jobs for the team with the best QB in the league in the middle of his prime don't come around too often.  I think every candidate would be able to look past the owner in this situation to get a chance at having Allen's prime years to chase a ring. I still think if they lose in the first round and thus fired McDermott a week earlier, Harbaugh very likely would have been their next HC, but this all happened after he was already lined up with the Giants.

      Some QBs take several years to become a good starting QB. Sadly this league has no patience, like they did in the past. Aaron Rodgers, Mike Vick never really saw any playing time their rookie years. They sat back and watched a professional QB. Left out Jake Delhomme. Now every once in a while you get a guy in his rookie year that blows poo up like Cam but that is not common.
