While the Buffalo Bills prepare for this weekend’s AFC title game against the Kansas City Chiefs, one of the team’s most essential members, Joe Brady, might finally get the NFL head coaching job he has always wanted.
Brady, 35, has been the Bills’ offensive coordinator for the last season and a half, and Buffalo’s offense has been outstanding this year, scoring 525 points in the regular season, which is the second-best among teams.
Joe Brady is a top NFL Name
Since he became the LSU passing game coordinator and receivers coach in 2019, teams have fallen in love with Brady.
The Tigers’ record was 15-0 that season, and they won the title. They are among the best teams in college football history.
Brady took quarterback Joe Burrow and helped turn him into a star. Five years later, he is helping the Bills reach the AFC title. Hopefully, the Super Bowl and NFL teams will likely line up to make him their new head coach.
On Monday, the Chicago Bears made the Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson their next head coach. Johnson has been the best play-caller in the NFL for the last two seasons and was rewarded for it.
The NFL is an offensive league, and teams with young quarterbacks want an offensive-minded head coach to lead the way. Brady might be the next best offensive mind with Johnson off the board.
Look what Sean McVay is doing with the Rams or Kyle Shanahan with the 49ers. All NFL teams want that kind of head coach, and Brady feels he is on that path.
A team like the Jacksonville Jaguars, with a young quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, needs to figure something out. Brady would be the perfect guy to get the best out of the former Clemson star, and Jacksonville should be jumping all over him.
The Bills Would be in Trouble Without Brady
A year and a half ago, the Bills were in a weird spot with their offensive coordinator, Ken Dorsey, and fired him in the middle of the season.
Nobody believed the Bills would figure it out, so they turned the keys over to Brady. Since then, all they have done is win.
