Buffalo Bills fire head coach Sean McDermott after latest playoff failure

• Bills lost dramatic overtime game to Broncos

• Buffalo missed Super Bowl under coach's leadership

The Buffalo Bills have fired Sean McDermott after the team yet again fell short in the NFL playoffs.

The Bills lost a dramatic divisional round game in overtime to the Denver Broncos on Saturday. Buffalo have reached the playoffs in all but one of the seasons since McDermott took over in 2017, when he helped the Bills reach the postseason for the first time in 17 years. However, they have failed to reach the Super Bowl in that time despite the presence of Josh Allen, one of the best quarterbacks of his generation. Under McDermott, the Bills became the first team to win a playoff game in six straight seasons and not claim a Super Bowl.
