--- Quote from: M Dogg on February 07, 2011, 11:29:17 PM ---I will never forget that game against the Bills, Bo Jackson was a beast, but was taken out the week before against the Bengals. To this day, I feel that had the Raiders had Bo Jackson, they would have won the whole damn thing that year. True story, the Bo Jackson Raiders were better than the Buffalo Bills. I will never let it die, and I will be honest, as a lifelong Raider fan, I still hold on to that like I still hold on to the Tuck Rule and that fat fuck Tony Siragusa's foul on Rich Gannon. Don't debate me, just know I still hold on to that Raiders/Bills game and say "only if Bo Jackson was there."

Yeah, I forgot that it was against the Bengals the week before that Bo Jackson was injured. I think the Bills played the best football in that AFC Championship game that I have ever seen in my life, so you could give the Raiders Bo Jackson, Joe Montana, and Jerry Rice and they still would of lost that game.
But hey, I'm as upset as you are about Bo Jackson getting injured that game against the Bengals, really, I feel your pain. Don't forget that Bo Jackson also played for the Kansas City Royals! Kind of ironic since the KC Chiefs and Raiders were such rivals. Bo was a huge phenomenon here in KC and I remember my first MLB game I ever went to was to see Bo Jackson play for the Royals. After Michael Jordan he was probably the most electrifying athlete in the world at that time. Remember the back-to-back homers him and Jose Canseco hit in the All-Star game back in the day?

You're talking about the 51-3 loss in the cold Buffalo January? Bo knows a lot of things, but not even Bo knows how to score 7 TDs in one game. You are really reaching here. I remember that game. I mean everything was just aligned for the Bills that day. One the first drive and I remember it well, the Bills score a a TD to a wide open Reed but it's called back for a hold. Then we're at 2nd and goal from like the 20 and Kelly fumbles the snap right in the heart of the pressure, it bounces right back to him, he picks it up, rolls out, and finds and finds a wide open Lofton who runs it in for a TD.

Even Jesus Christ coming back couldn't have saved the Raiders on that day... and I don't think Jesus Christ could hit a curve ball either, lol

Nah, Jesus could do it, but he would never do that to the good people of Buffalo who just wanted a win. He couldn't help Norwood though. And dto be honest the more I watch that last drive by the Bills the more I blame Kelly for the loss. There was some bad clock management and bad routes ran on that drive. Not a single break to the sideline to stop the clock and way too much time spent between plays eating up the clock. Not to mention that Norwood had a horrible long game with kicks and if you watch the Raiders game and a lot of other ones Norwood had a tendency to drift the ball to the right when when he kicked, so setting him up on the right hash mark was just plain stupid. With 8 seconds they had the time to attempt something to the left sideline, even if it was for a small loss, and worst case an overthrow out of bounds. Because from the left mark, Norwood makes the kick.

Yeah, I actually noticed that too when I watched the old clip of the Raiders game... funny that he missed a kick wide right in the first half of that game as well, in an otherwise flawless performance by the Bills. It was clear that Norwood was the only weak link on that team, then the Bills wised up a couple years later and got Christie, but it was a couple years too late.
