billsfan1959 Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 I remember that game well. And, the very next week they came from behind and beat the Raiders with 24 unanswered points in the 4th quarter. It was a crazy two weeks.... 9 2

Wacka Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) September 30, 1990. Remember the date very well. Went to that game. Dad was in the Oncology ward in Mercy Hospital and mom was visiting him all day on the next day (10/1). Went to pick her up at 5 PM. Was talking about the great action with him and he said he hadn't slept since the day before and was very tired and cold. We said we would let him get some sleep and were preparing to leave. He suddenly starts coughing up blood. His lung tumor was next to his bronchi and esophagus and around the nerve to the heart. It had broken a major vessel and he drowned in his blood. The game was very good but I will always remember the date for what happened the next day. Edited June 2, 2021 by Wacka 16 1
Beerball Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 What a wonderful game, I remember it well. I was living in CA at the time and was outside the house in my car listening to the Denver AM feed which somehow bounced it’s way into the San Jaoquin Valley. What a brutal listen that guy was.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 I always thought that the blocked FG return was the defining watershed moment for that Bills team— it is what started the run. Since then, I have always waited for a similar play by the Bills that would signal the next great team. 5
Kwai San Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 The Texas Twister Kenny Davis!!! Biscuit!!! Seals!!! Those were the days.....the Bills were a Force! You younger Bills fans missed out on all that.....I am hoping the evil NFL pendulum has FINALLY swung the other way and these will be great times ahead indeed. Nothing better than being in that crowd of 80K plus screaming our heads off....memories!!! 1

I definitely think it will. Making a big play in the playoffs is huge for the team's confidence. That's a big part of developing a winning culture is by making big plays in the playoffs. Hopefully this year the Bills can make enough of them to win it all. 2
NEBranch Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 I knew what game this was about from the thread title alone. My Denver buddy called to give me crap during the game....that didn't age well. 1 1
eball Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 One of the most interesting storylines is how this game vaulted the two teams in opposite directions. It was essentially the "beginning" of the Bills' great SB runs and dropped Denver, at least for that season, into mediocrity.
blitzboy54 Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 Dan Reeves called bills fans classless in an interview after game. I never understood what his problem was.

If I were half the person he has been........ Back on topic.....great teams find a way, and that Denver game was one of those that lead to 4 years of amazing times.
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 I still have this trading card I picked up after that season, love the befuddled Elway look captured perfectly 😊: 3
BillsPride12 Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 Nevermind the team..that was Rich Stadium in it's prime! 😍 5
