The Buffalo Bills will be looking to make the playoffs in 2015 after a lot of changes to their roster and coaching staff in the offseason.

Last season, the Bills finished 9-7, which was good enough for second in the AFC East, but not good enough to make the playoffs in the AFC. Doug Marrone was the head coach for the Bills last season, but is now the offensive line coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Replacing Marrone is the polarizing figure that is Rex Ryan. With the New York Jets, Ryan was constantly getting attention for bold statements or guarantees, and now he will be leading the Bills. Ryan will be inheriting an awesome defense in Buffalo, and with him leading them they may get even better.

This offseason also saw a big shakeup in the Bills’ backfield. C.J. Spiller was signed by the New Orleans Saints, and the Bills traded for Philadelphia Eagles’ running back LeSean McCoy. McCoy will hopefully bring a spark to a lackluster Bills’ offense over the past few seasons, but that may not be enough with a dreadful situation at quarterback.

Here are five reasons why the Buffalo Bills will miss the playoffs in the 2015 season despite a busy offseason.
