stevewin Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Take a few minutes to forget the current Bills and go back to a better time - how awesome was this team/season (worth it just for the last 30 secs of Pt 3 - actually gave me chills) 1980 Bills... NFL films Bills 1980 highlight film Talking Proud Pt 1 Pt 2 Pt 3 Fergy limping around during the playoff at SD - one of the gutsiest performances ever http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGOstL8XmRY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOJl-J2bzX0 Quote from Pt 3 above In professional football, cold statistics measure the athlete, Ferguson showed the courage that measures a man...
Frit0 Bandit0 Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Great Vids ! First year we beat Miami ... innovation of the shot gun in Buf
DDD Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Those uniforms with the white helmet, blue jersy and white pants kick ass. Ditto the white jersey and blue pants.
Geno Smith's Arm Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Those uniforms with the white helmet, blue jersy and white pants kick ass. Ditto the white jersey and blue pants. I want them to use those uniforms, but with a red helmet.
webtoe Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 I want them to use those uniforms, but with a red helmet. I have never liked the red helmet. Probably because of the reason they gave when they changed them - that it would help cut down on Ferguson's interceptions. The 1980 was probably my all-time favorite Bills team. I still have pictures of JF and Cribbs from the SI article that year and I remember how upset I was when Simpson got beat for the touchdown in the SD game. Oh, the good old days...

And this was team that without fergy going down probably goes on to the SB. Not a bunch of hall of famers on that team just guys who liked to stick their nose into the other guys chest.

Dante Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Devlin, Mckenzie, Dobler. An offensive line? Whooda thunk something like that would have lead too success? What a concept
DCBongo Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 In a time before free agency, how did this team not repeat? Great video, thanks for sharing

The general consensus was that the Bills were not in the same league as the Chargers IIRC. I remember that pass too Jefferson and it ranks right up there among the greatest of catastrophic heartbreaking moments in Bills history. It hurt again to watch it.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Agreed best unis we had and I hated the red helmet since the beginning that charging buffalo on white was classic Got a lamp from when I was a kid made out of a min-helmet version of that helmet. Best. Helmet. Ever.
rackemrack Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 those uniforms are so bad-ass, i have always liked the charging buffalo on the white helmet
Typical TBD Guy Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 In a time before free agency, how did this team not repeat? Great video, thanks for sharing RALPH WILSON.
No QB - No Bueno Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 Is it me or does the Jill (even by 1980 standards) at 4:49 of part 3 smoke any of the current Jills.
Endzone Animal Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 How sad that we're already reduced to reminiscing...
