Bill Belichick made it clear he has no interest serving at the helm the New York Jets, but that doesn’t mean he won’t take over as a head coach in the AFC East.
The Athletic’s Dianna Russini and Lauren Merola on Saturday referred to the Buffalo Bills as a “suitable option” for Belichick. The Athletic included the Philadelphia Eagles in that same category.
While Philadelphia has surfaced as one of the more popular Belichick suitors, Buffalo has not been nearly as popular a theory.
The Athletic reported Belichick wants another opportunity given coaching is “in his blood.”
The 8-2 Bills are quickly running away with the AFC East yet again. But if head coach Sean McDermott and company come up short in the playoffs — Buffalo has lost in the divisional round in three straight campaigns — the organization could make a seismic change.

Belichick standing on the opposing sideline against the Patriots certainly would reignite the rivalry and give the Bills a coach capable of winning at the highest level.
