Still my all-time favorite SB picture moment for the team, despite the outcome. Expand They all knew Norwood was going to miss just like I did. I was on the phone at the time watching the game and my best is a Giants fan. I congratulated him on the Giants SB victory before the kick. Norwood attempting a 47 yarder on grass was NOT happening in a million years. They did a great job against that D to go 60 yards in 2:10 with no timeouts just to get into that position, but I was praying that Reed or Thurman would break one to get a little closer for Norwood. Didn't happen.

Can't watch those old games due to the fact I know they wound up losers in the end, and in most embarrassing ways. Would be a lot different if they could have won one of them. Expand If that's all you can take away from those years then that's on you my friend
Niagara Bill Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Marv was and is a sanctimonious (spelling?) SOB, and I love him for it. Happy Birthday Marv. You are the Standard for a man! Only you can curse out someone with 10 + letter words As Thurman said...What did he just say?

Both were driving, playing cards, visiting with friends in their 90s, then when it started to happen they went downhill in a matter of days. Crazy stuff. Expand Don't get me started. Both my parents were golfing at 92. 3 more average years, more than the sum of their parts, Dad sharp as a tack, Mom healthy as a race horse. Overnight Dad had a moderate stroke, they became not twice the problem but the problem squared. Dad died at 100 years, 283 days. Mom turned 101 11 days ago.

RobbRiddick Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 It's funny. When I was a kid Marv Levy was old. Now I'm old, and he's still old. On 8/4/2020 at 12:57 PM, Seasons1992 said: 100% true.

Tasker's blocked punt, Thurman's TD, the big gain by Reed to take them down near the goal line. Such a shame they couldn't punch it in. Then the Cowboys scored those two TDs right at the end of the half and it just killed the game. The turnovers just wrecked the Bills in the last 3 super bowls.

Expand The OL got manhandled in the SBs with the exception of the first one. That’s the main reason that there where a million turnovers.
