The Buffalo Bills used their latest heartbreaking playoff defeat to make a substantial trade, and that was firing head coach Sean McDermott after nine seasons on the job. Instead of looking outside for a new head coach, the Bills and General Manager Brandon Beane decided that he would just promote offensive coordinator Joe Brady instead.
Given that the Bills stressed the need for change, they promoted Brady and also named Beane President of Football Operations along with his GM title. It has opened the door for scrutiny towards the Bills organization, especially after that disastrous end-of-season press conference.
