The Buffalo Bills have hired 36-year-old Joe Brady as the 19th full-time head coach in team history, and the 21st head coach when accounting for interim head coaches Perry Fewell and Anthony Lynn. Brady is one of the youngest head coaches in the club’s history, as he is just the third person to be hired for the job while in his thirties.

Brady is the team’s youngest head coach since Kay Stephenson, who was 39 years old when he was hired as head coach in 1983 following Chuck Knox’s departure. Stephenson, who had been the team’s quarterbacks coach prior to...

The Buffalo Bills have their new head coach, ultimately promoting offensive coordinator Joe Brady to lead the era of the franchise as it officially opens the doors to a new home in 2026. As with any move made by One Bills Drive, fans of the team have plenty of opinions on president of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane’s decision to hire within.

Most fans understood that quarterback Josh Allen was involved in the team’s search for a new head coach, with him reportedly sitting in on every interview. Bills Mafia also knew that the impetus for this search came out...

The Buffalo Bills may be zeroing in on a familiar defensive mind as they take aim at the next phase in the rebuilding process under new head coach Joe Brady. Denver Broncos defensive pass game coordinator Jim Leonard is expected to be the leading candidate to become the next defensive coordinator for the Buffalo Bills, according to Adam Schefter.

Leonhard, currently on staff with the Denver Broncos, has built a reputation as one of the sharp, up and coming defensive minds in football, particularly in pass coverage.

Leonhard spent multiple seasons with the Buffalo Bills as a safety in the...

The Buffalo Bills promoted offensive coordinator Joe Brady on Tuesday, naming him as the next head coach and replacing his former boss, Sean McDermott. Recent examples of this have not gone well.

Only two head coaches that were promoted since 2000 have a winning record with their teams; Jason Garrett with the Dallas Cowboys and Mike Martz with the St. Louis Rams.

Martz was able to take the Rams to the Super Bowl two years after Dick Vermeil’s retirement, losing to the New England Patriots in Tom Brady’s first Super Bowl in February 2002.

The Bills promoted Wade Phillips to...

The Buffalo Bills lost to the Denver Broncos in heartbreaking fashion during the latest playoff run… which is tradition at this point. When a team loses by an overtime field goal, it’s natural to point out which moment caused the loss. After all, a single play could literally be the difference. What’s my point here? Well let’s rub some salt in our collective wounds and try to catalog every single play that could have changed the outcome.

Let’s have some rules for our “fun.” First, I’ll stick to plays that I think warrant a possible three-point swing, otherwise it’ll just...

It appears “likely” that former Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott plans on taking a year off from coaching after being fired by the Bills following a successful nine-year run in Western New York. That according to a recent report from NFL Network National Insider Ian Rapoport.

Many of the head coaching openings have already been filled this offseason. Besides Buffalo’s vacancy, the Arizona Cardinals, Cleveland Browns, and Las Vegas Raiders are all searching for their next head coach, and McDermott’s name “no doubt would be one of the top candidates for basically any job around if he wanted to...

The Buffalo Bills have been busy searching for a new head coach after firing Sean McDermott at the end of the 2025 season. With the Denver Broncos having been eliminated on Sunday, the Bills interviewed their passing game coordinator/quarterbacks coach, Davis Webb, for the position.

Now, reports have emerged that Buffalo were to scheduled to interview Nate Scheelhaase, the Los Angeles Rams’ passing game coordinator, for their open head coaching position. The Bills are moving quickly, having just completed the interview with Scheelhaase this evening after he had already interviewed with the Cleveland Browns for the second time today. That...

It’s been a wild few days for Philip Rivers, who as of Sunday evening was rumored to be a serious contender for the Buffalo Bills’ opening at head coach. Instead, Rivers withdrew his name for consideration early on Monday. With that, the still-unrealized dream of a talented former NFL player void of any professional coaching experience was dead in the water.

Depending on one’s point of view, the idea of Rivers as Buffalo’s next head coach was met either with mockery, shock, or elation. Still, zero experience as an NFL coach is a massive hurdle to overcome, field general or...

By firing head coach Sean McDermott — the second-winningest coach in franchise history — while promoting roster architect and general manager Brandon Beane to president of football operations, Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula showed just how much blame he placed on McDermott for the Bills’ postseason failures, and, of equal importance, Pegula demonstrated just how much faith he has in Beane to lead the Bills to a Super Bowl title.

But with that show of confidence, Beane enters the 2026 NFL season under a tremendous amount of pressure. Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off by exploring how expectations are...

And then there were four. This afternoon and later in the evening, NFL fans will find out which two teams meet to decide a winner for Super Bowl LX. The whole of Bills Mafia is thoroughly dejected, having watched the Buffalo Bills lose yet another unforgettable playoff game. Many feel it should have been Buffalo facing the New England Patriots for the rights to a trip out west in February. But reality proved far different.

The AFC Championship gets things started today, and it’s a game Bills fans will watch begrudgingly. The one-seeded Denver Broncos play hosts again to an...

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Buffalo Bills are among a handful of teams waiting to interview Denver Broncos’ passing game coordinator/quarterbacks Coach Davis Webb for their vacant head coaching position. Schefter reported Sunday morning that the Bills and Las Vegas Raiders wish to interview Webb for their respective top jobs.

Webb, 31, is a rising star in the coaching field. He has been a member of the Broncos’ coaching staff since his six-year NFL career ended following the 2022 NFL season. Head coach Sean Payton hired Webb as quarterbacks coach that season. He added the title of passing game...

The Buffalo Bills are in the middle of a challenging search for their next head coach and they’ve made one decision already that has caused a little bit of a stir. Star quarterback and face of the franchise Josh Allen is part of the hiring process.

The worry from many is that having Josh Allen included creates conflict. Specifically, the next head coach might end up being one who could be undermined by Josh. I have a solution to that, should they turn to Buffalo Rumblings for advice…

Behavior-Based Interviewing

First and foremost, I think it’s important to...
