Ranking The Last 25 Years of Week 1 Opening Games

[mushypeaches]

That 2004 opening loss to the Jags was just awful.  Got my worst sunburn ever at the game, which was not a well played affair.  Just hoping the Bills could hang on and then frigging Nate Clements had to try to pick off 4th & 792 instead of just knocking it down

Yes.  4th down Bledsoe to Moulds TD.  I was in the stadium and the only other time I’ve gone from exhilaration to silence in such short order was the Home Run Throwup game when we were in the stadium in Tennessee.

 

You were at that game! Gross 🤮. I really can’t imagine.

That 2003 opener REALLY fooled me, and the irony of the score in the last game of that season was humiliating.

Then after they kicked the Jags ass in Week 2 I thought that team was going to be the second coming of the Super Bowl Bills teams

Looking at this list, I’m reminded how much delusion I needed to get up for most of those seasons.

 

 I’d convinced myself of great things on the horizon with very little data or logic, wild stuff.

I remember every single one of these games. Why am I forgetting the 2010 dolphins game? I have no memory of that and I never miss a game

Gailey intentionally took a safety late because he didn’t trust the offense to convert 4th down. It was a very very dull game

Ernest Wolford I believe? Somehow caught that ball with the half the team on him 😢. That was my sadness opener for sure.

Good memory.  I didn't know that WR ever existed.  I think he caught it between like four Bills.  I just remember them completing a 4th and forever the last drive and then winning it with no time left after four straight passes to the end zone.  Not sure if it was Leftwich or Garrard.
