Most painful: Wide Right and Homerun Throwback games. So Ridiculously Billsian you have to laugh: Dallas Monday-nighter and New England 2009. Most disgusted: Hiring of Jauron and benching of Flutie Saddest: December 1994 home loss to the Patriots which eliminated us from the playoffs. Reich led us to a 17-3 lead before it all fell apart and we lost 41-17. You could literally feel in the stadium that the "magic" was gone and that we were coming to the end of an era. I will always look back on that day as the unofficial end of the Kelly/Thomas/Smith/Reed/Levy era. And the day we released Thomas, Smith and Reed. I still can't believe we sent those guys out in such an undignified manner. No wonder we've been cursed for a decade.

Raiders 23 Bills 10

Best moments in person at the Ralph: 1988 - Jets division clincher game. You just knew it was the start of something special. 1990 - Denver comeback game where Biscuit returned the blocked field goal. Rich Stadium was freaking rocking. 1991 - AFC championship game vs. Raiders 1993 - the Comeback 2002 - Miami blizzard game where Moulds and Price both put up long TDs in the snow. Was my wife's first Bills game and first time in the snow (she's from SoCal).

The longer runs occurred once we had a 20+ point lead and were running a pass-protection defense. I believe both of those runs were also draws that caught us off-guard since we were rushing the passer. The Chiefs running game did absolutely squat early in the game when it counted and when they were willfully trying to establish it. The 6.0 ypc stat is a misleading and meaningless one - sort of like our 3rd ranked pass defense last year.
