Hello everyone, welcome to First Take, I'm Shay Cornett. Mad Dog is back. Hey, Godgy! You enjoy your vacation? You've been going to Monday. No, I was sick last week. Oh, you were sick. Thanks for calling, Jeff. Thanks for calling. Steve and A. Stephen A. Before we get this travesty started, let me just tell you this right now. I walk out of get up, I'm coming up. I got dog walking.

He doesn't have a green room because Eli's using it, so he's all disheveled his pants. He had to put sugar on his shoes to talk his pants down because they went at the calf level. He used to get, he must have put him in the dryer. He did his own laundry for the first time in his life.

You're terrible. I went to a boarding school. I did my laundry. That is terrible. Oh, my Lord. Don't show no chooser. Good morning, everybody. I would like to say this. First of all, Shea, congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. Congratulations to you. Congratulations to you. Sergeant Friday is always good to see you.

And Doggy, I must give him props today.

Doggy's son was at the national championship game.

And Doggy picked up the phone and said,

don't be bugging people out there, okay?

You be quiet and you behave yourself.

And I must say, little mad dog was on his best behavior. Wow. I mean, it was great hanging with them. We were hanging out together. We were talking. You know what I'm saying? In the suite, we were having a good time. He was a day. As doggy would say, good boy, good boy. Very good. Because he's a born-o-china shop, little Colin Rousse. So I said, give Steve his space. He wants to have his little supper, his little hood on, and he wants to be in the left corner. He don't want to deal with you. So I made sure I tone him. All right. All right. I love that we're still reliving Monday night. We'll do that more later on as well. But let's go to Monday morning and what we learned. And that was that the Bills fired head coach Sean McDermott on Monday after nine years in Buffalo, eight of which McDermott led the bills to the postseason, but of course never reached the Super Bowl. The change comes just two days after the bills lost to the Broncos in overtime, which of course ended their season in the divisional round of the playoffs.

Meanwhile, Adam Schaefter is reporting that the bills have requested to interview Brian Dable for their head coaching vacancy.

Now, despite throwing three touchdowns against the Broncos on Saturday, Josh Allen committed four turnovers tied for the most in any game in his career.

Alan became the first player with two interceptions, two lost fumbles in a playoff game since Carson Palmer did it in the 2015 NFC Championship.

Look, this coaching hire is very paramount for what happens with Josh Allen in his future.

A lot of people believe, like myself, a big reason why Sean McDerm was fired was because they never actually reached a Super Bowl. But let's focus in on the

quarterback here. How much criticism does Josh Allen deserve after this fallout? Well, first

off, you can't give them the two interceptions because the other second interception

freaking cooks rolled over and the other guy came up with the football so right out of the gate

that turnover is a little misleading no no that's that second over is not his fault no no no that's

it's not a good ball he's got to lead that oh not said catch the football he had it in his hands

oh you're nuts no you're crazy and it's an interception. You're wrong on both counts.

No, no way.

Alan's taking way too much abuse here.
