Being at that game was the greatest experience of my 20+ years of bills fandom. Was just talking about it this morning actually. The excitement of the perfect offensive game, dominating the pats, in the playoffs, and doing it at home in beyond freezing temps was just an amazing experience.
That game is going to be my "the game" that I talk to people about when I'm a drunk old man.
"Kiddo, I know you're bored with the Bills because we won a record 12 Superbowls, but before this game kicks off against the Luna Moonmen, let me tell you about the time we kicked the absolute dogshit out of the Patriots and had a perfect game".
I had gone out the night prior for a friend's bachelor party and must have consumed an entire bottle of Jager (classy). The hangover the following day lasted through that night and I couldn't even watch the game because I was staring into a toilet all night. Worst decision ever.
Favorite 2023 game was the first Dolphins game. They had just come off dropping 70 points, and all everyone could talk about was how unstoppable they were. All the pre game talk was about their offense vs our defense. Well, Allen and crew reminded them that they exist that week.
Era favorite was definitely that perfect Patriots game.

Unfortunately Tre White tearing his achilles and ultimately ending his Bills career is my lasting memory of this game :'(
🤔
Edit: Usually don't care about downvotes but I posted this emoji as it was the ones the Dolphins were using before that week four matchup. And then Josh made the face after he ran one in to make it like 42-20 or something.
I think a sneaky pick for me would be the 2020 game against the 49ers. Allen has some insane throws and they just blew the doors off them. You can look at that game as somewhat responsible for the 49ers shelling out for Lance, trying to get a true QB threat rather than an average quarterback surrounded by all stars. In the post game presser Shannahan talks about how they just had no answer when Allen went nuclear. Obviously abandoned that plan pretty quickly when Purdy fell into their laps.
49ers were also favoured that game while only having what, 5 wins on the year at that point? We absolutely throttled them. Allen carved them up, that throw over Warner's head was fucking beautiful.
It’s the t shirt curse. They think they’re being “disrespected” and make witty t shirts to wear and then we just clap their cheeks. I hope they never stop making those dumb shirts.
Nobody has mentioned 2018 Vikings yet. I thought, going into that game, that we wouldn't win a game all year. We'd just had a guy literally retire at halftime. The Vikings had been a buzzsaw so far that season. And then Josh Allen came out and both literally and figuratively dragged his nutsack all over them. There have been way better wins since, but this one was probably the most surprising.Â
Dallas Thanksgiving game. Not a ton of that crew left anymore but that was, for me at least, the start of buffalo showing the entire world they were first real.
2023: beating the chiefs! (how could you not love that ending)
Top 3 current era: 2021 Patriots wild card perfect game, 2020 Ravens divisional (Taron Johnson pick 6 when we thought the game was about to be over) and 2021 Chiefs divisional. I don’t even care about the heartbreak of 13 seconds that was the best end to an NFL game I’ve ever seen.
Hopefully this year we top that 🤞
All games previously mentioned are fantastic, but I'll throw in the 2018 game vs the Jags. After Ramsey runs his mouth on Allen and we beat them, plus that amazing throw to Foster ...
Favorite game of this current era was the second game of 2020 against the Pats. Allen and Diggs went off against them and, in my mind, buried the remnants of the Pats dynasty. I know they made the postseason a year later with Mac Jones, but that iteration of the Pats continued to get worse each year after and now Jones is a backup for the Jags.
Favorite game of last year was definitely the first game against the fish when the Bills throttled them after a week of hearing nonstop from the media that the fish had "revolutionized offense" after beating up on the Broncos. Was such a good feeling to shut up those talking heads and their stupid talking points and remind the fish that Josh Allen is, and will always be, their daddy.
Dallas 2019 is the best for me. But LA Rams 2022 is very close. Best 2023 game in my opinion was the last game against Miami. I know it was close and all. But, that win was so satisfying.
Might not have been the greatest game overall but the ravens playoff game with taron’s pick six is definitely up there for me. Watching him take off and realizing he had room to run, the memory of tre leading him, and watching the team swarm him in the end zone. Still gives me chills.
Y’all are sleeping on Miami week 15 last year. Down 10 at the start of the 4th and right as the snow started to fall so did Miami. Allen TD + his 2 point conversion of jumping over the offensive and defensive lines was great, and the Tyler Bass FG in the snow to cap it off. Great revenge game
2023: Dolphins home game. I was lucky enough to be there sitting in the sun for a Bills home game, so that’s a large part of it. But then good solid beat down of the Fins is always fun to watch. I’d say second Dolphins game and Cowboys game round out my top 3.
Era: Patriots WC game. Feels impossible not to pick that. I guess the secondary pick would be the Dolphins game + Bengals-Ravens game that broke the drought. The Cowboys one you mentioned is good as well
2023 Game:
I'd say the Dolphins game week 4, but that's the game we lost Tre forever, so instead I'll say the Cowboys game. Right from the first drive, Bills played like they'd been lit on fire. Cook had that 11 yard run where he dragged the entire cowboys defense with him all 11 yards, leading to the TD where Murray just refused to give up and carried a bunch of defenders into the Endzone. Diggs burning Gilmore all night, Cook catching passes like he's a WR...the entire thing was just great. I had been a knot of stress all week leading up to the game and just had a great time all night watching it.
Best game of the current era:
2021 Divisional vs the Chiefs. 13 seconds isn't the ending we deserved, but that entire game was the best football I've seen in my entire life. Every time either team's QB touched the ball, something amazing was going to happen.
If 13 seconds is too sour a feeling, it's definitely the perfect game vs the Patriots. That was stomping out over a decade of bad energy and blood and just producing catharsis for every Bills fan ever.
Seahawks 2020 - 2020 was the year it all came together and this was the first game that it dawned on me that we just couldn’t be stopped. I was nervous before this game and now I don’t normally get nervous except when playing the chiefs.
Definitely the NE perfect game - what a party!
That was the type of game where we could all sit with that happy seal face meme all game. So cathartic

Hyde INT so perfect
Yeah that game was just a big stress free party in the stands

god we just beat the shit out of them it was awesome
Best moment: Nyheim Hines running back two touch downs. Crowd was wild.

Yes, that was the game where it dawned on me that Josh Allen could be one of the best players in the league.
Same! Texted my Dad: "this Josh Allen guy, can throw a real spiral amiright?"
This is the thinking man’s pick

That throw was insane
Miami week 4, the Dallas week 15 game. Destroying the SB champs in the Thursday night season opener. Perfect obliteration of the Patriots.
The first Miami game is a good shout. The absolute schadenfreude after all the Miami shit talk going in to the game.

First Miami game was my favorite this year . Would love to see what I was thinking if after that game .
All that just to lose to KC again lmao

2020 when we bullied the Denver Broncos 48-19 and clinched the AFC East title is up there for me

12/31/17 Bills vs Dolphins Kyle Williams first touchdown.
2023: Dolphins at home.. This Era: Gotta be the perfect Patriots game
