Bills firing Rick Dennison is start of offseason makeover on offense

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- You won't find many fans of the Buffalo Bills who will argue with the team's decision Friday to fire offensive coordinator Rick Dennison.

Dennison's playcalling had come under increasing scrutiny this season, and the crescendo of criticism peaked Sunday on a first-and-goal play from the Jacksonville Jaguars' 1-yard line. In what running back LeSean McCoy later referred to as a run-pass option, Tyrod Taylor attempted a pass to Kelvin Benjamin that resulted in an incompletion, an offensive pass interference penalty and eventually a field goal.
