Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott has been ranked among the top people at his job in the NFL–Only barely.
Bills have one of the longest-tenured head coaches in pro football in McDermott. That has led to plenty of successes and wins. Buffalo has secured four-straight AFC East titles and McDermott only has one losing record on his resume with the Bills.
However, CBS Sports only just barely sees him as a top-10 bench boss. The outlet spotted McDermott just inside that territory in their 2024 offseason head coach rankings.
Below is the breakdown on McDermott via CBS Sports followed by the entire 32 to 1 rankings:

Season: 8th with Bills, 8th as head coach
Career record: 73-41
Playoffs: 5-6There are strong shades of early career Andy Reid in McDermott, a literal Reid disciple: Pressure is mounting for him to finally take an elite quarterback and annual contender to the promised land, and yet his track record as calming voice is hard to deny, with six playoff bids in seven years on the job. Whether Josh Allen can elevate a remade offensive supporting cast could go a long way in determining his future.
