Unnghh! I saw that game, and I was almost in
tears. It had absolutely nothing to do with that final touchdown (which looked like it wasn't good, but in review, it was a perfect parallel pass) by
Tennessee. It had EVERYTHING to do with Doug Flutie not starting the game considering that the
BILLS had no business being in the playoffs that year. In my opinion, that was Flutie's magical season, taken away by Wade Philips who felt that Rob Johnson (and his
FAT contract) was the future of the team. Johnson actually had a fine game, but it was a crime that Flutie wasn't playing.
If you check out the
BILLS losing streaks, point to Johnson getting the game ball. When you review the winning streaks, take note that it was Flutie who was getting the job done.
If this win was the greatest comeback I've seen in a playoff match-up (and it was), I would say that the
Monday Night Football game where Joe Montana was with the
Chiefs against the
Broncos was the next greatest comeback (maybe better.. but it wasn't a playoff game).
Side Note: Is it just me, or could you just replace
Mike Shanahan with
Mike Krzyzewski? They look the same, and kind of react the same way. That last little bit has nothing to do with anything in this thread (sorry
).
