A run by Tim Tindale through the  middle of Dolphins defense in playoffs in a record breaking game

 

The "Don Shula Retirement Game".  Bills drop a 342 rushing burger on the Fish.

No, the Oakland/NE*** comebacks were back-to-back weeks in 2011, following the opening win at KC.  The Bills got to 3-0 (and 5-1, I think) before collapsing.

Yeah. You'd think think I'd have a better recollection of that fleeting moment of glory.

When Scott Norwood kicked the Superbowl winning 47 yard field goal in Superbowl 25!!! At least, that happened in every other dimension of the multiverse that I have visited...

 

The funniest (and saddest) part of Buffalo66 is Anjelica Huston watching a replay of Super Bowl XXV and rooting for Norwood to make the kick.

most memorable for me, simply because it was the only "feel good" play of the game.

 

 

 

Well, to be honest, the game did start with the Bills blocking a Dallas punt on the first drive and punching it in for a TD and an early 7-0 lead. That was (briefly) feel-good.

Tony Greene 101 yard Interception return versus the chiefs. Picked it off right in front of us along the visitor sideline.

Darryl Talley’s INT And score against the Raiders.

 

It was early, but we were ahead by three TD’s and felt that making the SB, finally, was in our grasp.

JP's naked bootleg right against the Jets.

 

Yes. That sealed the game....for the Jets! JP and his wonderful awareness.

I haven’t gone through the whole thread, but one I don’t see mentioned much is the big turnover at the end of the Houston-Buffalo divisional game on New Year’s Day 1989. This was the first playoff game in Buffalo in years, after the great 1988 season that saw us win the division against the Jets when the goal posts came down. The stadium was electric, and Buffalo controlled most of the game until late in the 4th, when the Oilers scored to pull within 17-10. The Bills had to punt on the next drive at the 2 minute warning, so everybody was on edge, but I believe it was Tasker who stripped the returner and Bentley recovered to basically seal the win. Everyone went completely bonkers, including Bennett on the sidelines. That was an awesome play in Bills history.

It was Tasker. Immediate Buffalo immortality. THEN, he had a HOF worthy career.

Terrence McGee's almost return v the Saints right before the half

Greatest. Return. Ever. He must have run well over 200 yards on that play and I'm pretty sure he was gassed at the end.

 

In the moment, I experienced zero joy because it didn't help the team. In retrospect, just amazing.

It's the off-season, and relatively dead off-season right now at that, with the draft still a couple weeks away and FA basically done as far as the "splashes" go. So to help pass the time in a more productive manner than dropping a useless mock draft your way, I wanted to see what specific plays in our franchise history have resonated/stuck with you--either that you watched happen, or discovered in the archives...and can be either good or bad (hopefully everyone has at least one good one to offer up though?)

 

Here's a few for the "good" column, in no particular order of importance:

 

(1) Jim Kelly's QB sneak & end zone dive for the win, 1989 at the Fish with time expiring

(2) Jim Kelly's TD to Lofton after recovering a fumbled shotgun snap, capping a perfect 6/6 opening drive against the Raiders, 1990 AFC Championship

(3) Christie boots it through in OT to complete the greatest comeback of all time, 1993

(4) Don Beebe reversing almost the entire field to chase down & strip Leon Lett of the ball and save a TD in SB XXVII

(5) "The Leap" heard 'round the world, Josh Allen 2018 

 

It did not immediately come to mind, but #4 just might be my favorite Bills play ever. I loved that heart! I’d rather win than lose, but that heart and refusing to quit says a lot about a guy.

I remember Thurman scoring a TD on Monday night against the Dolphins in Miami-it is raining and there is a canvas hanging below the Miami fans at the back of the endzone-Thomas scores the TD and then fires the ball real hard right at the canvas a few feet below the first row-water sprays-it looked so cool. That would likely be a penalty in this NFL of today.
