Josh Allen and Sean McDermott rank fairly in SI's recent NFL head coach-quarterback dup rankings. However, McDermott's ranking among head coaches is egregious.
There are several factors that go into creating sustained success in the NFL, among the most paramount being continuity amongst the coaching staff and consistent excellence from the quarterback position. The Buffalo Bills are fortunate enough to check both of these boxes; head coach Sean McDermott is entering his eighth year at the helm of the team, while former All-Pro quarterback Josh Allen is coming off an NFL-record fourth-consecutive season in which he totaled more than 40 touchdowns.
Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid expectedly top Verderame’s rankings, with no egregious pairings ranked above Allen and McDermott. No. 8 seems a fair spot for the duo; they’ve found success with each other, but haven’t quite been able to get over the hump.
The 2022 season is also a microcosm of McDermott’s excellence; the adversity the team faced that year—several season-ending injuries, having a game relocated due to a region-pausing snowstorm, and the Damar Hamlin situation, among several other events—was almost unprecedented, and the team still won 13 games.
