SMAKCruiser Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 No love for the 9-6 barn burner vs the Colts in the late 90s??? 1
Sweats Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Andre Reed putting the team on his shoulders in the 4th quarter against the rams to win it in the dying minutes......classic 1

The Colts were 0-6 coming into that game and we almost handed them their first win. Cuz, you know -- We're the Bills. Edited June 22, 2018 by Golden Goat

I think it was Ahmad Rashad's first game as a Bill and he undressed a Raider CB for a TD. Wasn't the Denver turnaround game also on MNF?

Expand Best part of that one was the grade school-play version of billy buffalo (guy in front, guy in back under the costume) rushing the field at the end of the game. That used to be on youtube, but the nfl in its great wisdom appears to have scrubbed it from the site. Too bad — it’s a lotta laffs.

Shaw66 Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Probably plenty of people here weren't around for the Raiders game. It wasn't just that Rashad scored a late TD and the Raiders missed a field goal on the final play. Rashad scored the go-ahead TD with under 2 minutes left. The Bills' defense held and got the ball left. The Bills just need to run out the clock. The Raiders stripped the ball from the Bills' fullback (James Braxton?) and returned it 65 yards to retake the lead. So the Bills drove AGAIN with Rashad getting his SECOND TD in the last two minutes. My wife fell asleep with ten minutes left. I couldn't sleep for two hours. Cowboys games was probably the best game I've ever seen live, and I was at Super Bowl XXV. The crowd was absolutely electric. The stadium was shaking. The Bills defense was unprepared to win the game on the final plays. They literally GAVE the Cowboys two sideline completions to set up the losing field goal. Still, the game was unbelievable. 3

Expand It's easy to argue this one. Losing that way in the last couple of minutes makes me never want to see that game again. So happy with the new culture that McD is bringing to the locker room. He's changing the mindset where we played too tight at the end of games where we had the lead and gave it away. No way this can be our best MNF game when we choked like that in front of a national audience.

Another MNF game that was blacked out in WNY. Expand I remember seeing the MNF game against the Giants on TV. Drunk guy climbs out on the field-goal netting wire & gets stuck half way out! The game was delayed & finally the dude got back to safety. I also think there was a MNF game against the Vikings where a Buffalo fan hit Chuck Foreman in the face with a snow ball.....

Only MNF games I have a memory of though are the 07 Cowboys game and the Seahawks game a few years ago. The 2000 Titans game the first year of the drought may have been? I remember it being at night. Expand This was a great game. It really had everything.

The Bills rolled out that unconventional defense and had Romo on the ropes for most of the game. Was a heartbreaker to lose. Was always curious why the Bills only did that for that one game.
