Super Bowl XXVII - Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.
This was a game between Buffalo and Dallas that produced a lot of "firsts":
The Bills - 1st team to lose three consecutive Super Bowls.
Emmett Smith - 1st player to win the rushing title and the Super Bowl.
Jimmy Johnson - 1st coach to win both a national college and NFLchampionship.
This was the first Super Bowl to have 69 points scored.
OK, Enough firsts! The Cowboys crushed the Bills 52-17!
The only positive memory I have from this game, happened in the fourth quarter, with the Bills already trailing by five touchdowns. Frank Reich was sacked on a 4th and 5 play, and stripped of the ball by Jeffcoat.
Leon Lett picked up the ball and ran for what he was sure would be another easy touchdown. He did not count on Don Beebe chasing him down and slapping the ball out of his hands at the Bills one yard line after a 64 yard return!
The ball went out of the end zone; Buffalo took possession at the twenty yard line with under five minutes left in the game.
Don Beebe's display of heart, even though it meant NOTHING to the outcome of the game, epitomizes the soul of the Bills and their fans.
