I love it this was one of the best classic bills game on TH-cam truly high definition even can here some of the bills players talk about what play they are going to do me as a bills fan this is a charm👍
I have to wonder if the Bills weren't actually as bad as their record? Injuries ruined them. I don't know the injury situation with the Eagles in 1968, but they went from a 9-5 team two years before, to losing 11 straight games in '68. I'd say they were a worse team than Buffalo that year. I don't think they had a defense as good as Buffalo's.
Who will ever know how this team would have done coming off its championships if the owner , his coach and their players could have coexisted. Somewhere things unraveled quickly . This was the third season after and the team was a shambles already.
If the Bills would have stunned the Raiders on Thanksgiving Day (and they came oh so close to doing so) that may have been the biggest upset in football history.
@@andyprovin9108 They wouldn't have OJ, his life would have been different. He wouldn't have met Nicole Brown and killed her. Robert Kardashian wouldn't have been famous as a result of the trial..... so if the Raiders had won, we never would have heard of the Kardashians. If the Raiders had won we never would have had the Kardashians.
Beat the eventual Super Bowl champion Jets once and almost beat them again at Shea. Should have beaten the Raiders in Oakland on Thanksgiving except for Eddie Rutkowski's late fumble. But then they wouldn't have been able to draft O.J ...
Dan Darraugh was the absolute worst QB in Bills history. His stats are just BRUTAL. They're so gawdawful bad you almost can't believe they're real. In '68 he completed 43% of his passes for only 3 (!) TD's and 14 picks and a 33 QBR in 11 games. Yes, I said a 33 QBR. That's a thing that actually happened. He was PUTRID.
That's my dad running at 8:28 Max Anderson. I've never seen this footage before. This is awesome. R.I.P pops.

Thanx for the upload any Bills stuff is much appreciated !!
A look at Bob Kalsu #61 the only AFL/NFL player to die in combat in Vietnam in 1969
Ross Nochimson Bob Kalsu was my great uncle and most importantly, my hero. DM me for more info.
God bless his memory this memorial day weekend..
I was at that game as a kid when they did the moment of silence in honor of him ( sad story behind that day he was killed )
The Bills faithful have had a wild ride over the years. But my Broncos in the 1960s were worse. God they were bad.
Glad to see the iso on Harry Jacobs #64, an AFL 10-Year Man at MLB for Buffalo (with Paul Maguire #55, LB/P, also an AFL-10 Man).
Jim Otto, Raiders Center, 10-Year Man, never missed a single game during his entire 15 career seasons, 1960-1974, 210 consecutive starts.

That was a rough season for the Bills. Only 1971 did they have a worse record, 1-13.

They would've lost the chance to draft OJ if they'd won
Less than 3 months later the biggest upset in football history DID happen : Jets over Colts in Super Bowl III

The 66 Bills were good enuff to beat Lombardis Packers if Saban had remained Head Coach
Maybe the 1964 Bills with Cookie
Fran B I don’t think so
but they beat the Super Bowl Champ JETS for their only win
3 pick sixes thrown by Namath
5 in all. Buffalo scored just 1 touchdown on offense that day
Should of been 6, my cousin, Butch Byrd, picked Namath off 3 times, 1 of his 2 pick sixes was called back due to offsides. Still, not a bad afternoon!

Harry Jacobs would have fit on any BILLS team.
They beat the jets. 5 picks by namtah, including 3 pick sixes
The NFL should have suspended them for 2 seasons........

This video sugarcoats a terrible team and year
