Crazy to look back at those games and see how empty the stadium usually was.

Amazing how much smaller everyone was back then.  Terry Miller was awesome that year.

I was at a better one against New England as youngin' a few years later. The Big Ben Roland Hooks catch 😊

I was at that game as well. In the parking lot with my Dad when the catch was made.

What happened to Terry Miller? He ran for 200 yards vs the Giants and seemed unstoppable but then really not much after that. 

 

Just got banged up and never was able to get it back? He seemed like a great young man and gifted athlete but him and Roland Hooks never broke through long term.

My dad & I were in the concourse to be honest. But made it to the tunnel to the seats when Hooks made that diving catch just past the 40. We heard the crowd roar and made it for standing room only to watch the end. I still have the ticket stub!

The Patriots have seemingly always given the Bills trouble.

 

Although, that must have been very sweet the game in 81' when the Bills had that miracle finish against them.

Yes 35 yards to win the game and keep us in the playoffs!
