How much has Texans loss affected you?

The last time we saw McDermott, he was only shortly removed from his last game as an NFL head coach in the Wild Card round against the Texans. The Bills lost that one in overtime. Moving forward, will the Bills take anything from that game to improve?

Sure, McDermott said, but also, not really.

Referring to his experience, McDermott said he knows the NFL isn’t a league you make knee-jerk reactions in.

“I’ve been around enough playoff experiences, wins and losses on both sides, or coming up short in the Super Bowl, to know that, you have to be aware of what happened, and overall, and why. But again, overall, this will be a new season. We’ve got to flush last year. Take what we felt like worked as we continue to look forward and build. But at the same time, this will be a new football team in 2020,” McDermott said.
