On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Buffalo Bills beat reporter Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News to discuss Lance’s first year on an eventful Bills beat and how he’s seeing the Bills head coaching search play out down the stretch with what appears to be the final four candidates.
After coming to Buffalo in 2018 to cover the Sabres, Lance made the pivot this summer over to the Bills beat. He spends some time talking about the adjustments, of which there were many and getting acclimated to covering a different professional sport, something he’s actually done prior to coming to Buffalo.
He also sheds insight on the media room and reaction from both the Sean McDermott surprise (to most anyway) firing and subsequent press conference last week that was the talk of the league.
They also discuss a column Lance wrote for The Buffalo News on Monday that the Bills would be wise to wait another two weeks to interview Klint Kubiak for their head coaching job. That said, according to Adam Schefter it appears the Bills are down to their final four candidates and a new coach could be hired within a few days. Lance discusses those candidates to and where he thinks this ultimately headed.
That plus they drip their toes into some Sabres talk as they have become the talk of the league, this time for good reason. That and plenty more. Make sure to follow Lance @Llysowski. and check out his excellent work at The Buffalo News.
