## Resource

The Buffalo Bills shocked the NFL by firing head coach Sean McDermott after nine seasons, citing a need to break through a playoff ceiling — especially after seeing QB Josh Allen visibly frustrated in a tough loss. Owner Terry Pegula backed GM Brandon Beane’s rebuild, and the next chapter began with a bold move: promoting offensive coordinator Joe Brady to head coach and bringing in defensive guru Jim Leonhard as defensive coordinator. Leonhard, a former Bills player and Wisconsin’s defensive mastermind, is already energized to implement his innovative schemes — and veteran linebacker Bradley Chubb, who nicknamed him the “Mad Scientist from Madison,” is already raving about his fresh approach. With a new leadership duo and a revamped defense, the Bills are aiming to finally turn the corner and chase their first championship.
