History

Historical Context

The Buffalo Bills, a founding AFL team that won championships in 1964 and 1965 and endured three straight Super Bowl defeats by the early 1990s, sought redemption in the 1992-93 season. On Jan 3 1993 they erased a 32-point halftime deficit to beat the Houston Oilers, the NFL’s largest comeback. The feat reinforced Buffalo’s gritty sports identity alongside the Sabres and Bandits.
