Let’s address aid report. The Athletic’s Mike Sando went on Damon Amendolara’s show “D.A. Live” and said the following:“They’re going to be good. Josh Allen’s going to make them good. But within that, like the greatness or is it too much of a good thing when your play-caller goes from kind of being your confidante and maybe a little more of a friend than the head coach could be, to now going into that head coaching job. I think that is an interesting transition to make, when clearly before with (Bills ex-coach) Sean McDermott, he was in charge, also a defensive pedigree.” I’m sure he went along with a lot of stuff Josh Allen wanted to do, but there was a little bit more of a check and balance there, I think. And so now: What does it mean? Is Josh Allen more empowered?I’ve heard whispers and people complaining a little bit in the league about the fact Josh Allen gets to kind of do the pass protections how he wants them, I think that’s been a little bit of a source of frustration on the staff, at times, in the past. Is that a good or a bad thing, if that’s enabled more? Those would be the concerns. Not so much Josh Allen, I think we know he’s going to be a star. Just as you try to get over the top, are these fine-tune changes good? Maybe not quite as good.”Here’s the video: The Athletic’s Mike Sando @SandoNFL reveals the Josh Allen power dynamic causing frustration inside the Bills coaching staff. #BuffaloBillspic.twitter.com/iM4Ns33RWH— Damon Amendolara (@DamonAmendo) August 10, 2026First things first — I respect Sando and his reporting. He’s been covering the NFL since 1998 and spent a long time at ESPN before joining The Athletic in 2019. I’m certainly not insinuating Sando is fabricating anything here. We’re almost assured to never know who “league sources” might be — and notice the term “league” used instead of “team” — and listening to, then re-reading Sando’s quote did not not compute for me. The gist of it reads like grasping at straws to the nth degree. There’s no more vital dynamic in the NFL than the head coach and quarterback relationship — particularly when a team is good. From that, to insinuate a coordinator labeled as a “confidant” of the superstar quarterback moving into a head-coaching role is a bad idea feels silly. Now, that is also not to suggest I’m guaranteeing and know for a fact right now that Brady will become a tremendous h
