Here's one:

 

What Buffalo Bill, who started in his career with the Bills in the 60's, is widely suspected of killing his ex-wife after she was found dead? It was determined to be homicide. The murder occurred in the 1990's, within a couple year of a contentious divorce? He was eventually held liable in the civil suit but was never indicted for a criminal trial.

For a great number of years what jersey number did the bills not issue, but was never retired.

 

Hint: it is not #32.

Hint 2: I believe it was used for a number of years on the jersey of an anonymous player on team checks or letterhead.

31

31

Yes. You guys are good! Thought for sure I'd get someone saying OJ. The hint was "never indicted". On # 31, I believe JD Williams was the first in a long time to have it. A few others have had it since. Wasn't # 31 the number used on a cartoon drawing of a player for a program or some other marketing thing?

My Dad had the print account for the Bills programs way back in the 60's and 70's. Also he did the old Buffalo Bill cartoon that graced the covers of the programs in the early 60's.

I think the first regular season game at Rich was Chicago. Who it was in pre season, if that's what you're looking for, I have no idea.

Kelly's first regular season opponent in Rich was the Jets. 1986. I was there. Stayed the week in Buffalo and made a stop halfway towards Atlanta the following Sunday, stopping in Cincinnati for Kelly's second regular season game. Lost both.

As I said earlier, I believe the questioner was going the trick question route. Kelly's first opponent at Rich was Syracuse when he played for University of Miami.

For some reason #60 comes to mind but I'm not sure why. Maybe 'cause they started playing in '60?

Sorry, Tuco, that is incorrect.

I think Wade Phillips?

Red Miller?

How many consecutive games did the Bills lose to start the 1984 season and who did they defeat for their first win?

11 straight then beat the Cowboys at Rich Stadium!

 

Sorry, Tuco, that is incorrect.

Number 27?
