One team that is aware of how the coaching carousel operates is the Buffalo Bills. A team’s success increases the likelihood that other organizations will want to discover its secrets. This implies that many of an organization’s best assistants will be snatched away for their head position. Buffalo is fully aware of this. They have previously lost a head coach and an assistant general manager.
However, it’s evident that another of Sean McDermott’s assistants could be taken in the upcoming months as the 2024 season progresses. Joe Brady is an offensive play-caller. It’s also not surprising, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
“Still among the NFL’s youngest coordinators, Brady first gained attention in 2020 after leveraging a national championship run with Joe Burrow and the LSU Tigers into the offensive coordinator role with the Panthers,” Pelissero noted. In January 2021, he was interviewed for five head coaching positions. However, by December 2021, Matt Rhule unexpectedly fired him as Carolina’s season unraveled.
“Despite that setback, Brady remains a sharp offensive strategist and has thrived in his second NFL play-calling stint with Buffalo, starting in an interim role last fall.”
Brady is only thirty-five. Compared to other play-callers in the league, that is remarkably youthful. Halfway through the 2023 season, he replaced the failing Ken Dorsey, and he hasn’t looked back. If the offensive coordinator for the Bills were to lose their job, it wouldn’t be shocking in the slightest. Additionally, it would put Buffalo’s attack back on the defensive.
Aaron Rodgers already believes he is not wanted.
Fans of the Buffalo Bills have been told for the past two years that Aaron Rodgers will turn things around for the New York Jets and make them a contender for the Super Bowl. He missed all but four of the 2023 season, and the Jets haven’t had a great start to the season either, as they are currently 3-8 in Week 12.
It’s easy to tell that Rodgers has changed since the conclusion of his Packers career, even though we can still laugh at the Jets for being the Jets. The Packers were content to let him go because it was evident even in his last season in Green Bay that he was gradually beginning to deteriorate.
However, Rodgers still believes he can play with the rest of them and hopes to do so in 2025. Furthermore, he believes he wants to stay with the Jets as a player. “I think so, yeah” was Rodgers’ response when asked if he would be interested in wearing the Jets’ green and white uniforms in 2025.
The Jets have apparently stated that they are no longer interested in Rodgers being the one who saves them, which makes the whole situation even more absurd. The Jets players have been “tiptoeing” around the fact that Rodgers isn’t the same person he used to be, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Additionally, Russini stated that Rodgers might be benched or placed on IR. During the season, she even reported that Rodgers might be cut. All of this is great news for Bills supporters.
For Bills fans, Aaron Rodgers and the Jets’ strained relationship is hilarious.
The Bills are among the greatest teams in the league and are still vying for the top seed in the AFC playoffs, despite the fact that many people wrote them off when they lost a lot of important players during the offseason. It’s humorous enough to watch the Jets struggle, but it’s made much more delightful by hearing about how the Bills were recovering during the previous two years.
Jets, keep making people laugh. Continue to make people laugh.
