Lester has had opportunities to leave for other coaching posts in the past, but each time he obviously decided against it.
"I didn't feel right about going to the Jets," said Lester of one opportunity. "I had another chance to go to the Jets under Al Groh. I interviewed with him for the defensive coordinator's job. Bill Parcells when he was head coach didn't know me, but I could have gone there for a linebackers job, but I stayed. I don't know. I never felt an ease in leaving. My heart has always been here. Until we get the Super Bowl for Mr. Wilson that's my goal. That is it, until we get the Super Bowl trophy for this franchise I'm driven."
To hear some of the stories when other coaches talk about things is reassuring," Lester said. "To me we've got the greatest organization around. I was happy for Bill (Polian) when he won the Super Bowl, but when you talk to other guys that have left they tell you they just didn't realize how good things were here. There's a Bills method of handling people, players and how you do things and it works. We're back to the Bills way of doing things."
