Buffalo Bills Fire Head Coach Sean McDermott

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have fired Sean McDermott after the team again failed to reach the Super Bowl in his nine seasons, according to two people with direct knowledge of the decision. The move came two days after the Bills were eliminated in a heart-wrenching 33-30 overtime loss at Denver in the divisional round of the playoffs. The Bills went 12-5 in the regular season and saw their five-year run atop the AFC East end. McDermott transformed the franchise into a perennial winner but was knocked for failing to make a Super Bowl appearance. Buffalo became the NFL’s first team to win a playoff round in six consecutive years but not reach the Super Bowl.
