Bills head coach Sean McDermott has always been clear about his ultimate goal: winning a Super Bowl. However, he believes that success should not be solely measured by Super Bowl victories. In an interview with NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, McDermott emphasized the progress that quarterback Josh Allen and the team as a whole have made over the years.
McDermott expressed pride in the accomplishments of the Bills, emphasizing that they have achieved a lot despite not reaching the Super Bowl. He highlighted the difficulty of winning in the NFL and the importance of taking things one game at a time. Despite falling short in each of his seven seasons in charge, McDermott sees himself as a coach who has led his team to success, and he is proud of what they have accomplished together.
While McDermott has led the team to the playoffs in six out of seven seasons, winning a Super Bowl remains elusive. Ultimately, teams and coaches are judged based on championship wins, and McDermott understands that until he reaches and wins a Super Bowl, there will always be a sense of unfinished business. However, he continues to motivate himself and his team towards achieving their goals in the NFL.
