RobbRiddick Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 This is great. Have to say though I do get all misty eyed when I see clips from the late 80s - early 90s. Not just because we were really good then but it just looks like such a different time. I showed a kid I work with some clips and he couldn't believe how different the game looked. I much preferred the way the game was played then, I also preferred the sportscasters and the way they talked about the game.
Bray Wyatt Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 man that was great to go back and see some of the older games, a lot had slipped my memory
billsfan89 Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 That comeback this past season against the Jets was a big time sign of things to come. Solid defense but a shaky offense to start the game but then a clutch offensive effort after the defense kept the team in a game they should have been down at least 3 scores in.

(that was a LONG time ago). I played football with and was roommate's with his nephew, Ian Riddick, at Pitt. Great kid, humble, hard worker. Was a walk-on at Pitt and played DB. We watched the music city miracle game together in our room, and when Buffalo lost, we sat in that room in silence for two days....
Seasons1992 Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Man, we didn't win alot of Week 1's back in the day. And, hi-def is better than standard def. That's what I learned.

Seasons1992 Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 I was at the 1992 Rams opener; the year I owned my own season ticket at age 14. (Stop and think about that.) I distinctly remember two things: 1. Magic Johnson traveled with the team......I sat on the Rams sideline that season, and remember him walking out. The entire side stood up when he came out to see him. 2. Lofton's all-time yardage catch.
The Firebaugh Kid Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Thanks for posting. That 35-31 Bills win at home in 1991 was a crazy day for me. I sustained a bad concussion playing football that morning and I remember watching it and being unable to comprehend what was going on. Scary stuff
The BLUES Brothers Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Watched every bit of it - Thanks for sharing!

Think he means 1996 road opener in which the Bills fell behind 17-0 before staging a late rally that resulted in an overtime victory. I remember the game being on TNT and Verne Lundquist had the call.

WotAGuy Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Who the hell was Boobie Dixon? I have no recollection whatsoever about that guy.
