BillsGuyInMalta Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I also echo the 6-3 Browns/Bills fiasco. My Mom (a diehard Bills fan and the reason I'm so fanatical myself) came into town for a visit so I was very excited to treat her to a game. Just happened to be that game. Ugh.
Captain Caveman Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 It's hard (emotionally) to lose in the NFL.
wnysteel Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 i can't believe no one said home run throwback. talk about ripping your heart out.
Captain Caveman Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 that's been buried / repressed for many of us.
DC Tom Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 i can't believe no one said home run throwback. talk about ripping your heart out. That wasn't a bad game, so much as a decent game with a bad result. The 6-3 game was one of the worst football games in general I ever remember watching. However, I have to believe even worse Bills games have been played. You can't convince me that every game Bruce Mathison ever played or Kay Stephenson coached was better than that one.
RuntheDamnBall Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Cleveland 6, Buffalo 3. I fell asleep. At the game. Unintentionally. Stone sober I might add. I was on a mountaintop and tuned in for the end of this game via my phone. "...And the boos rain down on Ralph Wilson Stadium..."
Smiley Dear Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I agree with almost all the games said. One that I have to mention because it still kills me to this day is that 29-24 loss to the steelers in 2004 I think it was. Win and we were "in" (playoffs) ... Instead we get our butts kicked by 2nd and 3rd stringers. so embarrassing and maddening. this his my worst game too
Mach13 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 For me: The Bills played their first Rich Stadium game in Orchard Park on August 17, 1973, losing to the Washington Redskins, 37-21. The very first play was the opening kickoff retuirned for a touchdown by Washington, an omen to come? Still remember tossing the commeriative coin and program guide over the back of the noise bleed section seating... The Titans game still hurts though!

You can't convince me that every game Bruce Mathison ever played or Kay Stephenson coached was better than that one. The Losman game at the Steelers was awful. Also the Losman game at Tampa. When I think "worst game" I'm thinking about games that made me disgusted and want to turn off the TV -- not doing so solely because it's the Bills.

When I think "worst game" I'm thinking about games that made me disgusted and want to turn off the TV -- not doing so solely because it's the Bills. If you're disgusted and want to turn it off...it's not the worst game. The WORST game is the one that leaves you disgusted and keeps you watching, because you just can't believe you're seeing something so cosmically awful. By analogy, it's the difference between Jaws 4 and Sharknado.
Thunderstealer Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 One game for me is the greatest and worst. When Jim Kelly spoke at half about his son and Ralph gave him a truck.lol.very touching moment. Then the Gregg Williams team took the field and failed to reach the fifty yard line.
RevWarRifleman Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I'm going to answer this in general terms. Any of the games during the '84 through 85 seasons. The Bills were one of the 2 worst teams in the NFL back then. 2-14 both seasons, so we went into those games knowing it wasn't going to be competitive. And they weren't competitive. Anytime you have quarterbacks named Dufek and Farragamo, you're not going to reach the promised land. All games were ugly, even the 4 wins over those two years.
Stenbar Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Sept 3 1994 Buffalo Bills home opener vs the NY JETS... 24-3 loss.... hot as hell, game was a torture session
May Day 10 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) worst game maybe 6-3 Browns... 8-0 Browns in the Blizzard was awful too. 6-3 OT vs Giants Replacement Players in 1987 had to be the worst. Worst watching experience? Probably worse but off the top of my head is the Seattle in Toronto blowout and this season's game at Tampa Bay Edited July 29, 2014 by May Day 10
Tyrod's Tailor Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Cleveland 6, Buffalo 3. I fell asleep. At the game. Unintentionally. Stone sober I might add. This game in a runaway. Just the absolute worst football you could possibly imagine.
basskik11 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 How many times must i go through this...IT WAS NOT WIN AND YOUR IN...It was win and have a Jets loss and your in. The Jets stopped playing thier starters after they saw the Bills lost, lost on OT to the Rams...But were ahead in the game when the Bills score was announced in St Loius. Well whatever it was, the game was an embarrassment.
Taro T Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Though the Bills won, surprised nobody mentioned the '87 Classic 6-3 OT win for the counterfeit Bills over the Giants. No score until the 4th and missed field goals everywhere. The 2 worst scab squads put on one for the ages.
SJDK Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 How about every year when we are 3-1, 3-2, 3-3 or 4-2, 4-3? We have some pivotal game where we could go up by 2 games on the Jets and Dolphins ( sometime even a game or two on the patriots) and somebody gets hurt or we just lose in terrible fashion. We never recover. Ever. Then lose like 5 of 6. That is the $&@#iest feeling every damn year... But I'm still here, GO BILLS! Specifically biggest let down Ronnie Harmon vs browns :'(
