The season could have been much better. If McDermott had committed fully to Allen at the beginning of camp and spent the entire season focused on Allen, he would be further along and the team might even be in the playoff hunt. This season is a failure as a direct results of the Peterman debacle. This season has to be McDermott's mulligan. If next seasons is a a debacle, I don't want to hear about progress the team is making. If the Bills do not win a playoff came next season, I will consider the McDermott reign a failure.
