At first glance, the title of this article makes no sense. The Buffalo Bills led the league in rushing for the past two years, largely because of LeSean McCoy and their solid offensive line. Their new head coach Sean McDermott wants this to be a run-first offense.
Not to mention his offensive coordinator Rick Dennison loves to pound the rock. Why can’t they be number one again?
Well, part of that reason won’t be with the team next year. On Monday, the Bills announced they wouldn’t match the New England Patriots’ offer for running back Mike Gillislee.
