Bills' Sean McDermott: Judging Josh Allen on Super Bowl Wins Is 'Narrow-Minded'

The Buffalo Bills are still chasing an elusive Super Bowl title, but head coach Sean McDermott doesn't believe star quarterback Josh Allen should be judged solely based off his lack of postseason success.

"I think like anything, when you talk about the Bills, whether it's Josh, myself, our team, we've had so much success," McDermott told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero during the annual league meetings on Sunday. "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."

The Bills have made five straight playoff appearances with four consecutive AFC East titles. However, Buffalo has only played in one AFC Championship Game during that time in 2021 and has been eliminated in the Divisional Round in each of the last three years.

Allen has faced scrutiny for his struggles in the postseason, but McDermott said the team is confident in him to eventually get over the hump.

"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."
