88 was my favorite Bills year ever, even though it wasn't a Superbowl appearance. So many memories! Everyone in Buffalo got 1 of those afc east champs beer mugs with the roster names on it for Christmas. Lol

@@jamiejohnson4524 like I’ve said I can really stand the NFL of today, so these are amazing memories

@@CalgaryStampedersClassics for me, it’s fun to look back at those Novembers when NFL Sundays and the CFL playoffs coincided (between your channel as well as Jamie’s) Example: November 10 1991 Philly’s huge comeback at Cleveland, Calgary vs BC West Semifinals

[@CalgaryStampedersClassics]

@@chrisuncleahmad789 I agree they should stick with playoffs on Sundays!

[@CalgaryStampedersClassics]

@@chrisuncleahmad789 yes agreed I remember watching the 1994 CFL West Final (which is on my channel) then watching Sunday Night football where the Saints were at Atlanta

[@atlasking6110]

I was at this game! Boring game but The Bills won and the weather was great.

[@Joe-uh1pn]

Why did Minn punt with less than 3 minutes on the clock?

[@chrisuncleahmad789]

The start of Buffalo’s golden era

[@vincentgirardi401]

It really was. This was the first yr I followed the Bills (I was 8) and I remember this game vividly. Minn was in the NFC title game in 87 and we punched them in the mouth

[@steveoshei1819]

This was the game that started their run. I believe the Bills were big underdogs at home.
