He was, if we had Big Ted we would have won a couple Super Bowls.

 

 

 

Very true... if there were any big holes in Polian’s roster during that time it was:

 

A. Jeff Wright - a serviceable DL but was too small and pushed around vs more physics lineman.

 

B. Scott Norwood - he hit the wall in 1990/91.  Never should have been back in 1991 and 1992.  He was missed easy PAT’s for goodness sake

He also made several crucial FGs that season to help the Bills get some wins. 

 

Why is she your ex then???

 

She believed in quantity, not quality. 

 

I delivered neither, but still......

[dollars 2 donuts]

"77" was all I needed to see.  I knew exactly what this was about.

 

I was there.  Unforgettable.

[klos63]

We season ticket holders definitely got our money's worth back then.

[Domdab99]

I remember that game very well.

 

Leonard Smith was a good player that is mostly forgotten these days.

[34-78-83]

Was there with my Dad. We remember it in full incredible detail and both acknowledged it as the day our team "arrived" as a true contender that could never be counted out. They proved it again of course the following week vs. the Raiders.

I was there and remember it like yesterday.  We couldn't believe what we were watching.  And the very next week they did something sort of similar in the Sunday night game vs. the Raiders!

i was at the raiders game 3rd row in the endzone that the blocked punt was returned for a td

[BringMetheHeadofLeonLett]

That was a magical year in my world- and my favorite Bills game from it!. Thanks OP! Hope some of the younger Bills fans have something like that to accentuate their youth, too!

 

Shoot, I had the Lakers, Dodgers and Bills... like I still do.  I was a freshman in college, still buzzing from the greatest moment in baseball history, the Lakers were just taking their Showtime selves at the Detroit jungle-ballers after taking it to the greatest rival they could have ever had for the past decade... and then The Bills start pulling this siht!!!   I was good looking and blessed... for a while heheheh

Misleading title. 

 

I was expecting comments made by my ex 

Nice!

[Fadingpain]

Listen to the roar of the crowd as Biscuit runs 90 yards or whatever for the TD on the blocked FG.

 

80,000 going nuts.  Awesome!

 

Everyone in the building knew Biscuit would score and wouldn't be caught from behind.  

 

This team back in those days was electrifying.  Anything was possible and we were never out of it.

That was entertaining.  

[TC in St. Louis]

I was in the other upper end zone, knowing if he made the kick it would be 24-9 , and there was no 2 point conversion, so we were cooked.  Denver was lining up for about a 24 yard field goal, and I was ready to go when I noticed that somebody was running down the sidelines toward us, and it was now a game.  It got nuts after that, and Denver was marching down the field at the very end....I think Kirby Jackson picked off Elway to end it.  What a game.

I have a great story from that game.  I was in the upper deck pretty close to where the FG attempt was taking place.  Back then, I used to bring a little TV with me to the games because there weren't any replays on the scoreboard.  Right before the FG attempt I said to my friend next to me "They have to block it & run it back for a touchdown".  Then right before the interception I said something like "time for an interception" .  After both plays happened the guy sitting in front of us asked me if my TV was showing the future.  

There was also an incident when the Bills were losing in the game, I got so frustrated and yelled out at the top of my lungs "Where's the f'n defense"  I got a lot of angry looks from the fans in my section & had to apologize.

I remember this.   In one of the week prior to this game against Denver, Levy pulled the Bruce and others when they were getting shellacked.  Bruce complained about it in the Buffalo News.  Then this happened.   The following week against the Raiders something similar happened.   This is when that "team" found its magic if you ask me.

[BringMetheHeadofLeonLett]

No way around it, this was the game that started everything

And then they proved it the next week   holy crap!!!

[Bad Things]

Great memory!

I had just moved out to Colorado a few months before this game and was watching it with some of my new CO friends.  What a great time.

[BringMetheHeadofLeonLett]

Finalized the deal on 51-3

 

Ya know, in the end I'm ok with it- The 90's Bills were easily the most fun team to root for of any major sports team of any era I've been alive for.  That team was a blast!

[BoccesOnTransit]

Why are we not wearing those jerseys/helmets anymore? God they look so damn good.

[Matt_In_NH]

Rick Dennison missed the block on the FG, LOL

[Kwai San]

Man those were the days......sitting in that stadium and feeling the concrete under your feet rumbling......amazeballs that place still stands.....saw I don't know how many comebacks during that SB run......The Ralph was an amazing place to be on Sundays......season tix holder here from 1986 till 2007, I gave them up cuz the Bills front office gave up.  Now I am moving to FL and if I weren't I woulda signed up for ST's again this year.....they are not gonna win as much as we would like but they are going to give a lot of opponents grief!

 

I will enjoy many games at the Bills Backer bar I go to in Bradenton.....Evi's is a cool place to watch from....beer is a bit steep but still....
