I was shouting for him to just get down in the end zone, take a knee and get the ball at the 20. What a return it turned out to be.

In what was a microcosm of the season, after winning opening day 31-0, we went on to lose to the Patriots by the same score on the last game of the season. Ugh.

That might be the perfect example as to why opening day can be deceiving.

Surprised only a couple of people mentioned this one so far. This was the most insane I think I've ever seen fans at the Ralph. Hard to overstate how much the stadium erupted when this happened.

 

Absolutely insane momentum shift

Taron Johnson, for sure. 

 

One of the most amazing games was the Monday night against the Cowboys in 2007. Amazing game.  

 

Chris Kelsay had zero-yard return pick six.

💯

Still one of the most awesome plays I’ve seen. One of my all-time favorites.

Damn, The current Baltimore Ravens pretty much collapsed because of us. Their losses over the years against us, these plays, they're all demoralizing and traumatic.

Was one of the 3 pick sixes thrown by Namath and we won 37-35 for our only win of the year (and Jets won the super bowl)

And we got the first pick in the draft and took OJ

Dan Reeves was practically in tears after that game. He said something to the effect "that was the greatest defensive game he's ever been a part of" (holding our offense to 3 points) and it completely devastated him to lose a game like that.

He may have taken some solace in the fact that Washington used the exact same game plan in the Super Bowl to dominate a great Bills offense and win it.

Taron Johnson’s was amazing, although I also liked this Nate Odomes one against the Raiders in 1990.  First game I ever went to.

 

 

That game was the week right after that amazing Broncos rally. It’s crazy how that team could just suddenly explode on an opponent.

Those NFL films soundtracks were amazing. It was like a sports opera playing out on the screen. Highlights are nothing like that anymore.

So this was a question heard on the radio that made me smile. Bills best defensive pick six.

Benford is obviously top of mind with a beauty from the Bengals game. I think my all time is Sam Adams pick on Brady. The big man rumblin!! High steppin even!

 

Amazing video quality we had back then lol.

Who remembers this one. Week 2 1980. Jeff Nixon 50-yard interception for a pick 6 vs the Jets.

Kaiir Elams 86 yard pick 6 against Josh Allen
