Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula addressed the stunning decision to fire head coach Sean McDermott and retain general manager Brandon Beane during a press conference Wednesday.
“My decision to bring in a new coach was based on the results of our game in Denver,” Pegula said, according to Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News. “I saw the pain in Josh (Allen)’s face at his presser, and I felt his pain. I know we can do better, and I know we will get there.”
The Bills’ season ended with a controversial overtime loss to the Denver Broncos, who kicked a walk-off field goal moments after the officials awarded Denver an interception on a contested play that would’ve put Buffalo in position to win with a field goal if ruled a catch.
