947 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 I remember that game well. I live in IL, so I went to a local sports bar to watch the game with a friend who's a huge Steelers fan. He & his son wore Steelers jerseys, my son & I wore our Bills jerseys. I was sure we'd dominate, but it didn't end well for us... We couldn't even slow Leveon Bell down. The only positive from that game was picking off Roethlisberger 3 times.

Bell ran for what felt like a million yards. Expand ya I remember it well. I remember being there thinking "we picked a good qb off this many times and are still gonna lose". disheartening... on a side note, weather-wise, it was probably the coolest game I've ever been to. brisk and dry. huge snowflakes. was a really neat atmosphere that day.

The bills players acted like they'd never seen snow before and had no idea how to play in it Expand I was there and remember there were no footprints in the snow on the Steelers side of the 50 for the whole 1st quarter. Most were inside the Bills 30 yard line.
RussellDopeland Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 When I saw 'VCR Alert' I thought it might be a replay of a truly great Bills game, from 1991, when Kelly threw 6 TDs (4 to Don Beebe) in a route of the Steelers. 1

mushypeaches Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Depressing that we have not beaten the Steelers since 1999. Doug Flutie vs Kordell Stewart
buffaloaggie Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Spoiler alert: the game sucked for Bills fans http://www.espn.com/nfl/game?gameId=400874497

Honestly, I barely remember this game (it is all a blur the last 15 years or so), but I am sure the Bills lost...but it must have been a decent game, or they wouldn't be re-running it. Expand They are featuring good games for current free agents. I am sure they are playing that game because Le’Veon Bell had a big day. 1
Doc Brown Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Are they showing this game to remind potential suitors of how good a back Bell is? All I remember about that game is Bell getting the ball, standing still for a full second, and then gashing us for 15 plus yards. 2

But lost.. Expand Wow dude.... how about a FREAKIN' spoiler alert before your comment. Sheesh! Ps no sarcasm font but it's needed.

QCity Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 This is one of those games that stirred up so many of the "Guys, what exactly is Garbage Time?" threads.
BuffaloBill Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 VCR? You guys still have one of those? If so, do you also listen to 8-track tapes? 1

It was listed as a Free Agency Showcase for Bell. As if any GMs in the league needed to watch NFLN replays to see if he was actually any good.
