  • The 1976 Buffalo Bills season was the franchise's 7th season in the National Football League, and the 17th overall. Buffalo's season was troubled from the start, as the team was in a contract dispute with star running back O. J. Simpson. Simpson had been demanding a trade, before finally agreeing to a three-year, $2.5 million contract. The Bills started the season 2–2, before losing their final ten games of the season. Quarterback Joe Ferguson only started the first seven games before being sidelined for the season with a back injury. Backup quarterback Gary Marangi started Buffalo's final seven games, all losses. Fullback Jim Braxton injured his knee in the Bills' season opener and was lost for the season. Simpson still led the NFL in rushing in 1976, even without Braxton's blocking. Bills head coach Lou Saban resigned after the fifth game of the season, with the Bills struggling at 2–3. Offensive line coach Jim Ringo took over, but would not win a game for the rest of the year. The lowest point of the season was when O. J. Simpson was ejected from a game for getting into a fight with New England Patriots defensive end Mel Lunsford. Lunsford was also ejected from the game as well. Neither player was fined or suspended by the league. (en)
  • La stagione 1976 dei Buffalo Bills è stata la settima della franchigia nella National Football League, la 17ª complessiva. Con come capo-allenatore, dimessosi dopo la settimana 5 dopo un record di 2-3, la squadra ebbe un record di 2-12, classificandosi quinta nella AFC East Division e mancando l'accesso ai playoff per il secondo anno consecutivo. La stagione iniziò in maniera turbolenta, con O.J. Simpson che chiese di essere scambiato per una disputa contrattuale. Alla fine firmò un contratto triennale del valore di 2,5 milioni di dollari. Dopo avere vinto due delle prime quattro gare, la squadra perse tutte le ultime dieci. (it)
