The Buffalo Bills will interview former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel for their vacant head coach job on Friday, per NFL insiders. He will be the fourth of at least seven candidates to meet with the Bills in the process.
Pairing QB Josh Allen with an offensive guru has long been a desire of several sections of Bills Mafia. McDaniel would fit the bill in that regard.
McDaniel cut his teeth under Mike Shanahan in 2005 with the Denver Broncos and has been attached to Mike’s son Kyle almost ever since. They both joined the Houston Texans staff in...

The NFL announced the finalists for each of the major awards for the 2025 season, including Most Valuable Player. Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was named a finalist once again, making this the fifth time he will be invited to the “NFL Honors” awards ceremony.
Fans will remember that Allen was named the NFL MVP for his performance during the 2024 season, where he delivered a memorable acceptance speech upon receiving the award. While there were some expectation that Allen would win the award last season, it would be more of a surprise if he won it this year. Despite...

The Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens hold the two most desirable open head coaching positions in the NFL. Both jobs come with elite quarterbacks, established infrastructure, and championship expectations. Both also carry a unique pressure point: replacing the head coach who defined the most successful era of the franchise.
In Baltimore, there’s idle speculation about whether the future could ever include moving on from quarterback Lamar Jackson. I don’t see that happening, but I’m sure the possibility of it still sits with the fan base. In Buffalo, there’s no speculation needed. Quarterback Josh Allen is the franchise. He is the...

As the Buffalo Bills get the ball rolling in their head coach search, they are in the mode of scheduling interviews. Adam Schefter reported that on Sunday, Buffalo will interview Jacksonville Jaguars offensive coordinator Grant Udinski for their head coach opening.
Udinski is only 30 years old but has shown to be one of the bright young offensive minds in the league. Teams are taking gambles by hiring young coaches in hopes of finding the next Sean McVay. The Jaguars were ranked eleventh in total offense, and sixth in points per game. However, it is important to note that it...

Apparently, Buffalo Bills co-owner Terry Pegula saw no path forward with head coach Sean McDermott. Immediately after watching his team lose a heart-breaking Divisional Round playoff game to the Denver Broncos, Pegula made a massive decision to fire McDermott. Bills Mafia didn’t know it at the time, but Pegula’s mind was made up purely off a gut feeling while taking in the scene in Denver’s visiting locker room. He fired McDermott “based on the results” of Buffalo’s game at Mile High.
As majority owner, Pegula’s decision rises above all, despite the teamwork-focused culture he and others in the front office...

The Buffalo Bills became the latest NFL team to dismiss its head coach when veteran Sean McDermott was fired on Monday after leading the Bills to eight playoff appearances in nine seasons.
Newly promoted president of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane will be tasked with leading the search to tab McDermott’s replacement, and while there is a lot to like about coaching in Buffalo, the situation comes with some risks, too.
Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off by exploring the attractiveness of coaching Josh Allen and the Bills, who boast the league’s top rushing attack and an MVP-caliber quarterback...

Despite chaotic nature with which former Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott was shown the door, One Bills Drive is wasting no time trying to fill a position that hasn’t been vacant in nine years. When news first broke that McDermott was let go, many wondered who, if any, among Buffalo’s current coaching staff might receive an interview for the head job.
We know now that current offensive coordinator Joe Brady was the first in-house candidate to interview with Buffalo’s top brass, having done so Wednesday afternoon. He’s the first person overall to interview for the opening. Brady has been...

There has been a lot of mixed emotions the past couple of days after the Buffalo Bills announced the firing of head coach Sean McDermott. McDermott leaves the franchise after six straight playoff appearances but could not get to the end goal of playing in a Super Bowl and hoisting the Lombardi Trophy.
Through all of those emotions, Bills Mafia wanted to thank McDermott for all he has done in the way they know best, charity. McDermott has been an advocate for Skin Cancer Awareness and members of Bills Mafia have decided to donate to that cause in his honor....

The Buffalo Bills just completed a doozy of a press conference in Orchard Park. Owner Terry Pegula and general manager Brandon Beane spoke with reporters for about an hour, even arriving five minutes before the scheduled start time.
What resulted was messy, and they are rightfully getting some heat.
The biggest misstep of the entire press conference was when Beane was asked about drafting Keon Coleman. He began his response but Pegula stepped in, dropping not only a surprising bombshell but also undermining a whole bunch of people...

The Buffalo Bills have begun their search for a new head coach in earnest, and reports indicate that a familiar face will interview for the job. The Bills have requested to interview former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll for their vacant head coaching position.
Daboll was the head coach of the Giants from 2022 through Week 10 of the 2025 season. After starting his coaching career with a 9-7-1 record and Coach of the Year win, as well as a Wild Card playoff victory over the Minnesota Vikings, the wheels fell off quickly. Daboll’s Giants teams never recaptured...

The Buffalo Bills have begun to contact potential head coaching candidates, and two of the early reported candidates are familiar names. The team has reportedly reached out to former offensive coordinator Brian Daboll about its head coaching position, but Daboll isn’t the only former Bills offensive coordinator reported to be in the mix for the team’s head coaching position.
Reports indicate that Washington Commanders running backs coach Anthony Lynn, who worked on Buffalo’s staff under head coach Rex Ryan for the 2015 and 2016 seasons, has been contacted for an interview for the team’s head coaching vacancy. Lynn was Buffalo’s...
