The Buffalo Bills, despite their consistent performance, are yet to clinch the coveted Super Bowl title. However, head coach Sean McDermott insists that the lack of postseason success should not be the sole criterion for judging star quarterback Josh Allen.
McDermott’s Take on Success
“When you talk about the Bills, whether it’s Josh, myself, our team, we’ve had so much success,” McDermott stated during the annual league meetings on Sunday. He was responding to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. “What’s left for Josh and for all of us is to take that one more step that we need to take. To say we haven’t had success or Josh hasn’t had success, I think would be kind of narrow-minded.”
Buffalo Bills’ Playoff Record
The Bills have a commendable record of five straight playoff appearances and four consecutive AFC East titles. However, they have only made it to one AFC Championship Game in 2021 and have been eliminated in the Divisional Round in the last three years.
Despite facing criticism for his postseason performance, Allen has the full backing of McDermott and the team. “It’s hard to win in the NFL, so you kind of regroup every year, and you take it one game at a time,” McDermott said. “But we’re all looking for Josh to really be that face of the franchise, like he’s been, and continuing to evolve, like he’s always done.”
