Bills brass confident Super Bowl window not ‘closed,’ won’t hit reset: ‘We’re disappointed … not broken’

The Buffalo Bills’ brass is putting on a brave face following yet another disappointing playoff loss. After a late-season run that saw them capture the AFC’s No. 2 seed, the Bills’ 2023 season came to an end this past Sunday night after dropping a 27-24 decision to the visiting Kansas City Chiefs. 

Despite another loss to Patrick Mahomes and Co. and a challenging salary cap situation awaiting them, Bills general manager Brandon Beane and coach Sean McDermott are operating with the thought of getting the Bills back into title contention in 2024. 

“I don’t get into that ‘window’s closed’ mindset,” Beane said, via NBC Buffalo. “Your team is always changing and evolving each class, with draft classes, free agents. … This is a quarterback league, and I believe in the guy we’ve got under center.”

“This is not a situation where you strip it down to the studs,” added McDermott. “You really start with understanding the success that we’ve had and how we’ve gotten it. Then you make tweaks along the way to try and get ourselves to become world champions. … We have not reached that ultimate goal however in terms of why we came here, and we will work tirelessly to do that.”

Beane is right. The NFL is a quarterback-driven league, and the Bills are fortunate that they have one of the best in the business in Josh Allen. An MVP candidate, Allen’s exceptional play down the stretch was instrumental in Buffalo’s six-game winning streak after a 6-6 start.
