Thanks. I used to watch this NFL series back in the early 2000s on ESPN. Good days.

The biggest liability of the run-and-shoot offense was that you couldn’t control the clock with it. The Oilers centered their whole offense on this scheme to the point that they had no tight ends on their roster whatsoever to where they could go to a conventional offensive attack (two running backs and one tight end) and pound the ball on the ground with the running game and wear the opponent down protecting a huge lead. It showed in this game, as well as previous playoff failures (91 in Denver and later in 93 against Kansas City). Buddy Ryan was spot on when he called the run-and-shoot offense the chuck-and-duck.

Absolutely. Quarterbacks just can't take shots that much, and teams have to be able to run the ball when they need to run some clock and get some first downs.

Oilers probably wouldn’t have been as good a team without using that scheme. If you score 35 points in a football game the defense needs to step up. I mean, go out and hold the other team to at 30 points for one half? surely not that hard. The oilers defense folded in all those playoff games except the 1990 bengals game.

I remember this game like yesterday. I was 12. It may have been one of the greatest playoff games to Buffalo fans like my friend Kris but to those of us who hated Buffalo and were sick and tired of seeing them make the Superbowl during the early nineties, this was devasting and one of the worst games ever! I never was a fan of the Oilers but even I was rooting for them to finish off those pesky Bills after that amazing first half. I wanted to see the great Warren Moon get a ring. It was definitely the Oilers best chance to going to the Superbowl that year. I bet if they had beaten Buffalo they would have made it to the big game. But as they say, we'll never know.

Just another element of bad luck for Houston sports in that era. One of the reasons why the local media decided a few years later to call it choke city. The Rockets loss two finals to the Celtics. The Astros failed to get to the World Series. NC State upset Houston in the national title game. George Foremen, Houston's best athlete then had retired from the ring. Fortunately, the tides turned in 94 with the Rockets winning.
