for the Bills with him as the head coach,” Fitzpatrick added.
The Track Record
Since taking over as the Buffalo Bills’ offensive coordinator during the 2024 season, Joe Brady has demonstrated his ability to lead. The team ranked second and fourth in points across the league under his coordination. In 2024, Brady was instrumental when Josh Allen won his first career MVP while getting creative with one of the best signal callers in the league.
“Brady was still able to scheme things up for Allen as well as the league’s leading rusher, James Cook,” Fitzpatrick noted. “Buffalo was the best rushing offense in the NFL and fourth overall in yards.”
The success under Brady’s watch suggests that he can adapt to a larger role. However, whether this adaptation will translate into sustained success remains to be seen.
Looking Ahead
Brady knows the fan base is hungry for at least another trip back to the Super Bowl, let alone their first-ever Vince Lombardi Trophy. But all that matters now is what Brady and the Bills are able to do come September as their championship window with Allen shuts a little bit more by the year.
For Ryan Fitzpatrick, the key will be watching how these changes play out in practice. “My wife and I — seven kids. So, we very rarely get away.
So, when we get away, we gotta make sure it’s the right spot, and this one hit. It has the white-sand beaches, it has the resort, which is great. But it also has the adventure,” he concluded.
The real test will come in September as the Bills prepare for a new season with a new head coach leading them into their championship window.
