Given the improvement that Josh Allen made as a passer in the 2019 season, the Bills may elect to limit their hypothetical offensive coordinator search to in-house candidates in an attempt to maintain continuity.

If this is the case, expect Ken Dorsey to receive consideration.

The two-time Heisman Trophy finalist replaced David Culley as Buffalo’s quarterback coach in 2019, helping Allen improve in just about every statistical category in his sophomore season.

Looking past statistics, Allen’s on-field decision-making vastly improved in the 2019 season, something that can perhaps be attributed to Dorsey’s tutelage.

Dorsey has a proven track record when it comes to helping quarterbacks, as he helped lead Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton to an MVP award in 2015.

Though Dorsey’s history with quarterbacks is impressive, his prowess as an offensive play-caller is unknown. He has only served as a quarterbacks coach in the NFL, never having the opportunity to call plays.

Despite Dorsey’s inexperience as a play-caller, Allen’s progress under his watch would almost automatically make him a candidate for the Bills’ offensive coordinator job.
