The Buffalo Bills are going to be a team to watch this next season. That may always be the case with Josh Allen as the starting quarterback. However, 2026 feels different for this squad. They have a brand-new stadium ready for its debut, a young new head coach (Joe Brady), and a conference that is wide open for the Bills to finally get over the hump. Not to mention, one of the best running backs in the NFL.
James Cook, the Bills' star RB, recently sat down with NFL Network's Good Morning Football on Tuesday and expressed the new vibes with Joe Brady as head coach, replacing Sean McDermott. NBC's Pro Football Talk shared the quotes from Cook.
“I mean, it’s just a new energy in the building,” Cook said in an interview with NFL Network’s Good Morning Football on Tuesday. “It’s going to always be like that, I feel like, when you have a new head coach coming in — a young one, too, at that. I mean, Joe’s a young head coach coming in, his first year being a head coach. I mean, he’s got a new energy. That’s what I feel like.”

“I mean, to me, nothing has changed,” Cook said. “Joe’s going to be Joe. And, you know, he’s going to be himself. He just wants you to play football and have fun.”
We are just over two weeks away from the start of training camp. Late July, around the 28th, will be when the full team reports for camp. Rookies should join a week earlier. Look for the Bills to be one of the best teams in the AFC this season with a lot of fresh vibes, allowing them to feel confident.
The pressure is on for Joe Brady and the Bills, but they have the right personnel to get it done.
