‘Dodson posted a picture of him signing his new deal on his Twitter page.’

‘If the Bills didn’t want to make it appear as though they were scapegoating Farwell, this is how it would’ve looked. Waiting for Farwell to get another job before announcing Smiley.’

‘”Well, I’m encouraged by the progress that’s being made both at the state level and county level and with the club,” Goodell said. “We have been involved in a lot of those discussions. The governor has stepped into a very difficult challenge because when she came into office not only is the lease up in another year, but the stadium has been studied by experts and it’s reaching the useful life of that stadium. It probably has no more than five years, according to many of those studies. The bottom line on it is, we have to get a new stadium in Buffalo. The governor has recognized that.”‘

‘The 54-year-old Kromer went on to become the offensive line coach and the eventual run game coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams from 2017-2020, which included a Super Bowl appearance in 2018.’

‘Ankou had two different stints with the Bills in 2021, signing with them in June, released during training camp, then re-signing again in November to their practice squad. In between, he also spent time with the Atlanta Falcons’, Pittsburgh Steelers’ and Tennessee Titans’ rosters.’

‘At the time of Brady’s firing, the Panthers ranked near the bottom of the NFL in total offense and passing yards per-game.

‘The Bills now have to find a replacement for Dorsey as the quarterbacks coach in Buffalo. This is in addition to replacing Bobby Johnson as the team’s offensive line coach.’

‘ESPN’s Dan Graziano reports the Bills will interview Las Vegas Raiders wide receivers coach Edgar Bennett for the job, while Shawn Stepner from WMAR-TV in Baltimore reports Buffalo has requested to interview Ravens wide receivers coach Tee Martin.’

‘I would like to believe general manager Brandon Beane and head coach Sean McDermott would be looking for someone who philosophically aligns with what Daboll thought and what the offense has been. I don’t think it would mean the Bills would be looking to run the ball more, not when Allen and the passing game are still the Bills’ No. 1 strength. Maybe a new coordinator would be able to find some yards-after-catch in the passing game, since the Bills were one of the worst in the league in that category.’

‘Daboll is the only offensive coordinator quarterback Josh Allen has had since entering the league in 2018 and is widely viewed as extremely instrumental in the QB’s development and success.’
