‘McDermott’s achievements are impressive when you compare them to the Bills coaches that came before him in the 2000s and 2010s. Since Marv Levy’s last season in 1997, the Bills had seven head coaches (not counting interim coaches) before McDermott. Wade Phillips, who coached the team from 1998 through the 2000 season, led the Bills to two playoff appearances in ’98 and 1999.’
