On this episode of The Sportsnaut Interview, we discuss the surprising departure of John Harbaugh from the Ravens after 18 years, noting that the season seemed "off" and that players appeared to no longer be "really buying into Harbaugh anymore". Our guest, Frank Schwab of Yahoo, also expresses surprise that the Browns let go of Kevin Stefanski, who is a good coach and has won Coach of the Year twice.

Sportsnaut sits down with Sal Capaccio of WGR 550 to break down the Buffalo Bills' hot streak, their massive comeback against the New England Patriots, and the AFC playoff picture.2345

Sal Capaccio shares his biggest takeaways from the Bills' 21-point comeback win, which saw them score 28 points in the second half. He discusses what the win confirmed about the Bills: they can still beat anybody in the league when playing to their potential.67

In this interview:

• Why this season might be the most opportunistic path for the Bills to reach the Super Bowl in the Josh Allen era.8
• The concern that this is also "probably [the] worst team" Buffalo has had during this run.9
• The tough road ahead, as the Bills will "probably have to go on the road for three straight games in the playoffs".10
• The high level of concern about the team's road playoff game struggles, as Josh Allen-led teams have lost all four road playoff games since 2019.11
• The inconsistencies of the Bills this year, including losses to teams like Atlanta and Miami.12
• Inconsistency on defense due to injuries and being undermanned.13
• The offensive inconsistency, specifically the ability to challenge teams on the outside at wide receiver.14
• Whether Coach Sean McDermott and GM Brandon Beane will face criticism from fans and ownership if the Bills fall short again.15

Sal Capaccio is the sideline reporter and radio show host for WGR 550 in Buffalo, New York.
