It's April 23rd, welcome in. This is NFL News Today, where football meets AI. Sean McDermick got fired as head coach of the Buffalo Bills after nine seasons of playoff heartbreaks. He took over in 2017, ended a 17-year drought, and drafted star quarterback Josh Allen in 2018. They built a powerhouse, but the team never made it to the Super Bowl despite consistent contention. That partnership sparked a seven-year playoff streak starting in 2019, with Allen ranking top 10 among quarterbacks from 2022. 2025. Still, the loss is piled up, putting massive pressure on everyone, especially their franchise guy. McDermick praised Allen's leadership, saying the young star handled the weight like a pro and won over fans everywhere. Allen himself stays locked in, repeating his goal every year to bring a Super Bowl trophy back to Western New York. Now 52, McDermick has no hard feelings about the split. He's calling it a life change and a chance to grow with his family, while joking that
offseason downtime feels like retirement preview, but he's not. Done yet. He's lining up media spots as an analyst at next week's draft, planning charity work in May for skincare awareness and studying football schemes, with other coaches. Meanwhile, with a new voice like Brady on the sideline, all eyes stay on Allen to finally crack that Super Bowl code.
