Quarterbacks coach Joe Brady will take over as the interim OC for Sean McDermott&#8217;s club.<\/p>\n<p>Dorsey was elevated from his role as Bills passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2022 when Brian Daboll left to take the New York Giants head coaching job. In 28 games under Dorsey, the Bills continued to put up yards and points. In 2022, Buffalo ranked second in the NFL in yards and points. Through 10 games in 2023, the Bills sit seventh in yards and eighth in points.<\/p>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              2023 NFL season, Week 10: What We Learned from Broncos&#x27; win over Bills on Monday night            <\/li>\n<li>              Bills QB Josh Allen on offense&#x2019;s chances for turnaround after 24-22 loss to Broncos: &#x2018;It&#x2019;s no secret that the clock&#x2019;s ticking&#x2019;            <\/li>\n<li>              NFL Power Rankings, Week 11: C.J.

Too often this season, the Bills&#8217; offense looked like an amalgam of plays rather than a cogent plan.<\/p>\n<p>Buffalo&#8217;s struggles have mostly come due to costly turnovers. The Bills turned the ball over four times (two INTs, two fumbles lost) on Monday night, with three pinned on quarterback Josh Allen. It marked the second game this season for Buffalo with four-plus giveaways. The Bills have 18 turnovers on the season, tied for the second-most in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, Dorsey, who earned a head-coaching interview during the last cycle in Carolina, took the fall for the struggles. But will the change be enough for a disappointing Buffalo club with a tough schedule down the stretch?<\/p>\n<p>The Bills move forward with Brady as the play-caller for the season&#8217;s final seven games. The 34-year-old saw his star rise in 2019 as the passing game coordinator for LSU during their run with Joe Burrow to the College Football Playoff national championship. In 2020, he was hired by the Carolina Panthers as offensive coordinator under Matt Rhule. In two seasons in Carolina, the Panthers&#8217; offense barely got off the ground, ranking 21st and 24th in yards and points, respectively, in 2020 and 30th and 29th in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Monday night&#8217;s loss signaled panic in Western New York, as Buffalo dropped to 10th in the AFC. McDermott moved to fire Dorsey hours later, looking for a spark to jumpstart a meandering Bills club.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/bills-fire-offensive-coordinator-ken-dorsey-joe-brady-to-take-over-as-interim-oc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the offense struggling to overcome mistakes, the Buffalo Bills made a seismic move less than 24 hours after their <span class=\"more-text\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299368,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Bills fire offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey;
