‘This Sunday’s game will be the second regular-season matchup between Sean McDermott and Ron Rivera as head coaches. Rivera’s Panthers got the win over McDermott’s Bills in their first matchup back in 2017. McDermott and Rivera have a storied history and a lot of respect for one another. The two started coaching together under Andy Reid in Philadelphia from 2001-2003. The two reunited in 2011 when Rivera was hired as the head coach of the Carolina Panthers, and he named McDermott his defensive coordinator.’
