Welcome to a brand-new era of Buffalo Bills football. Following a massive offseason shakeup that saw the departure of longtime head coach Sean McDermott, former offensive coordinator Joe Brady is officially running the show. In this 2026-27 season preview, we dive deep into how general manager Brandon Beane has re-engineered this roster to push Josh Allen and the Bills over the postseason hump.
We start on the offensive side of the ball, where Joe Brady gets a lethal new weapon to play with. We analyze the blockbuster trade that brought star wide receiver D.J. Moore to Buffalo, reuniting him with Brady from their Carolina days. How will Moore’s physical, alpha presence change the dynamic for Allen, Khalil Shakir, and Keon Coleman?
Then, we flip to the defense, which is undergoing an absolute identity shift under new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard. We break down Leonhard’s aggressive 3-4 multiple scheme and why analysts think it will completely unlock defensive tackle Ed Oliver.
Finally, we navigate a tricky 2026 schedule as the Bills prepare to debut their brand-new Highmark Stadium. From a brutal stretch of four games in 17 days to navigating three short-week road games, we give our record predictions and decide if Buffalo can snatch the AFC East crown back from the Patriots.
