"For the past seven seasons as the head coach of the Buffalo Bills, Sean McDermott fielded a good team. The Bills won at least 10 games in all seven of those seasons, making them only the sixth team in the Super Bowl era to string together seven-plus seasons of double-digit wins. The Bills also made the playoffs in all seven of those seasons, and in the past six, they won at least one playoff game."
"The point of NFL football is to win Super Bowls, and there is one path to winning them -- fielding a good team. No bad team in NFL history has ever won the Super Bowl. Of course, there's more than one good team in football every season, so luck and injuries and razor-thin edges get involved down the stretch. But in general, you have to field a good team to win a Super Bowl."
Winning Super Bowls requires fielding a good team; no bad team in NFL history has won the Super Bowl. Sean McDermott led the Buffalo Bills to seven straight seasons of at least 10 wins and seven consecutive playoff berths. The Bills recorded at least one playoff victory in each of the past six seasons, making them one of four franchises to string together six straight seasons with playoff wins, alongside the 1990s Cowboys, 2010s Patriots and 2020s Chiefs. Despite regular-season consistency and division-title banners from 2020–22, the Bills never reached a Super Bowl, and McDermott was fired Monday.
