I've seen that stadium at its modern loudest. I cannot imagine what Highmark in a frenzy with an extra 10,000 fans in attendance would have sounded like. Probably could have heard that roar from Cleveland
It was a much different era. This was before 52-17, or the closure of the 0-4 dream. Then came the music city miracle. Then Tom Brady for twenty years. The modern-day Buffalo Bills fan has seen enough of Sean McDermott in big games. Maybe one day. Maybe sooner than later.
the crazy thing is this comeback didn't take the entire half. It was just an absolute onslaught after the bills got their first td. If I remember by the end of third they were down 4 points.
I don't know why I stayed watching the game after the interception in the second half, I thank myself for doing it, without a doubt the best game I've seen in my life, and I remember it like it was yesterday, i was 13yo, from a Bronco fan
Yup 👍 Houston Oilers has made the playoffs 7 straight years prior to this game … The following year , they fell to worst team in the NFL with a record of 2-14 . They never recovered from this loss and only began winning again when they moved to Tennessee 😢
and the Oilers led 28-3 at halftime, the 35-3 lead didn't happen until Frank Reich threw the Pick six in the 3rd quarter. Ironically, the last TD the Colts also got was a Pick Six to increase their lead to 30-0. Warren Moon would be the QB for the Vikings two years after the loss. Kirk Cousins was QB of the Vikings in the win!
I think about this game from time to time over 30 years later. Oilers got robbed soooooo many times in this game. The Refs allowed blatant penalties not being called. Just a disgrace.
I watched the first half at home before I had to go to work. Driving in I was so mad the season was over. I worked at that time at a country club on the driving range and our little range shack was just off the tenth tee by the ladies tees and we had a little black and white t.v in there. When Christie made the kick to win it I ran out the back screaming at the top of my lungs right when a lady was about to tee off. Scared the crap out of her but it was totally worth it. Those Bills teams were something else.
Nobody ever talks about the 2 huge missed calls, but I guess that would take away from the story. I'd never heard of the calls until today. The missed holding happens, but in today's NFL, the Beebe TD when he stepped out of bounds would probably be overturned I'm assuming.
Their red helmets ⛑ and their blue jerseys and their white slacks 👖 and their light gray socks 🧦 really complements the green football field that they play in.
On the drive after the onside kick, Beebe fumbled on an earlier play and Jerry Gray recovered. Then later Beebe stepped out. Gray and Houston got screwed twice on that drive.
Fun fact: this game was BLACKED OUT in the Buffalo home market because they didn’t sell out. One of the greatest games in NFL history was blacked out in the home market. Unbelievable.
What an embarrassing collapse or choke however you see it. Loved the Oilers offense how do you score 28 points in a half then not piss a drop the second half.
Frank Reich now is HC for the Indianapolis Colts--he recently lost a first-round playoff game in Buffalo--he has said that he still has a very deep fondness for the Bills and the entire Western NY area
The almighty football gods had already favored Doug Flutie to win it all that year, and cursed the Bills when they benched him in favor of shoeless Rob Johnson. The curse was finally lifted two seasons ago when the Bills invited Flutie back to lead the charge.
It's called "Theighs Mon", and believe it or not, the song was first identified only a few months ago. See the following links for more info ... www.primetimemusic.net/2020/06/breaking-unknown-song-23-points-war-one.html www.primetimemusic.net/2018/02/unknown-song-23-points-war.html

Bob Costas said “Go Figure” after he said during the half time show that the Oilers has this game won.

Frank Lloyd Reich--I LOVE IT!
How.the.fuck.you..loose.that.game
Who else is here after the Vikings 33-0 comeback
7:00 Until 2022 when the Vikings came down from 33 against the Colts
and the Oilers led 28-3 at halftime, the 35-3 lead didn't happen until Frank Reich threw the Pick six in the 3rd quarter. Ironically, the last TD the Colts also got was a Pick Six to increase their lead to 30-0. Warren Moon would be the QB for the Vikings two years after the loss.

1:30. You will never see a play like this in todays NFL. This was a special time in the NFL.
why not?
I remember watching this game as a child, mind blown then, mind blown now.
Indy just fired Reich...why not try him at QB?
This game and the 1999 Music City Miracle. These two franchises have quite a history!
And I heard you say it's over!! Never count out ANY team. Eat your words cold. 💥
This game thought me that it’s anybody’s game. I use this game as an example every time I tell someone never underestimate your opponent.
Was there to witness this. Most memorable sports event I’ve ever seen.
Cheers mate.

I think this Oiler team could have actually won a Super Bowl if they wouldn't have blown leads in playoff games.
Just like the Falcons, could never hold the leads when it mattered.

This game was blacked out in the local area so all of us buffalo fans never got to see this game.
I saw this game. I was rooting for the Oilers. Made me sick.
11:25-Berman asks "Can the Oilers ever recover?". History shows the answer would be no.
5:55 / bills player on the bottom jumped
WE NEED MORE POINTS!!!
DON B B B B B B
Man! I really miss the 1994 Buffalo 🐃 Bills 💵 uniforms.
I also really miss the 1960 light gray, white, metallic red & metallic blue uniforms of the Buffalo 🐃 Bills 💵.
Their red helmets ⛑ and their blue jerseys and their white slacks 👖 and their light gray socks 🧦 really complements the green football field that they play in.

This comeback is so legendary it teaches you to never give up anything can happen
RIGGED...THE NFL ALWAYS HAVE BEEN RIGGED...POLITICS KEPT WARREN MOON FROM A CHAMPIONSHIP..HE CLEARLY WAS A BETTER QUARTERBACK THAN REICH & KELLY
Fun fact: this game was BLACKED OUT in the Buffalo home market because they didn’t sell out. One of the greatest games in NFL history was blacked out in the home market. Unbelievable.
I still can't believe they did this without their Hall of Fame QB AND their Hall of Fame RB.
4:08 - Spin Move
What an embarrassing collapse or choke however you see it. Loved the Oilers offense how do you score 28 points in a half then not piss a drop the second half.
8:41 man Cris Dishman just throwing everybody under the bus.
This was poorly officiated.
Frank Reich now is HC for the Indianapolis Colts--he recently lost a first-round playoff game in Buffalo--he has said that he still has a very deep fondness for the Bills and the entire Western NY area
I remember this game not being televised for some reason and having to listen to it on the radio..
There was a blackout
Don BeeebeBeebbbe
11:00 when that old NWA Power Hour music kicks in.
Whose here after the Bills finally won their 1st playoff game in [26 years]!
And to close out the decade with the Music City Miracle in Nashville, TN where the Titans come back against the Bills.
I feel a rematch is coming with the bills getting revenge
We had our revenge, music city miracle
The bills will avenge the music city miracle send the titans on 17 season drought
The almighty football gods had already favored Doug Flutie to win it all that year, and cursed the Bills when they benched him in favor of shoeless Rob Johnson. The curse was finally lifted two seasons ago when the Bills invited Flutie back to lead the charge.
I was there. Rich stadium was lit.
The game that broke the Oilers franchise
What is the name of that first song dang
It's called "Theighs Mon", and believe it or not, the song was first identified only a few months ago. See the following links for more info ... www.primetimemusic.net/2020/06/breaking-unknown-song-23-points-war-one.html www.primetimemusic.net/2018/02/unknown-song-23-points-war.html
The score at one point was 28-3 and a Houston team was playing. A Super Bowl was played in Houston and the score was 28-3, coincidence?
Plot Twist: Tom Brady's last playoff game as a Patriot was a loss to the same franchise as the Houston Oilers.
Will never forget that game if I live to be 1000 years old. And I got to watch the game a second time at Jim Kelly's house afterwards. What a party!
He had it on tape? That wasn't an easy recording to acquire in the buffalo area as it was blacked out in the home market.
No Jim did not have it on tape. He had a dish in the back yard.
Then they moved to Tennessee and they blew a 28-3 lead at home to the Browns. Largest comeback by a road team in NFL History
And Houston teams still choke in the playoffs!!!😂
