These Are The Most Heart-Breaking Losses In Bills History
It has been 24 hours since Bills Mafia watched one of the most heart-breaking losses in the team's history on Monday Night.
The feeling of joy quickly turned to "Oh no not again" when the Bills were flagged for 12 men on the field for the last-second field goal. Denver's kicker, who missed the kick, got another chance and put it right through the middle of the uprights the second time for a 24-22 win over the Bills.
As a long-time Bills fan, I know that feeling of "Oh No....Not Again" when it comes to rooting for the Bills.
While the Buffalo Bills have never won a Super Bowl, they did win back-to-back AFL championships in the 1960s. So older Bills fans do know the taste of winning a championship.

If you are my age, 46 years old, you know the 2-14 teams in the 1980s and of course, the Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, and Andre Reed led K-Gun offense Super Bowl teams.
If you are younger like my son Avry who is 18, you only know the 17-year drought and of course the losses to Kansas City in back-to-back years and to the Bengals in the playoffs last season.
So to rank the toughest most heart-breaking losses in Buffalo Bills history will come from your personal perspective. So this list below is from my time as a Bills Mafia member.
I was born in 1977 and first fell in love with the Bills during the 1980s when Joe Fergerson was under center. I was a fan when Bruce Smith was the #1 overall draft pick and when Jim Kelly spurned the Bills for the big-money deal with Houston in the USFL.
I was in high school when the Bills went on their Super Bowl run. I remember skipping school to welcome the Bills home after the loss in Super Bowl XXV. I remember chanting Scott Norwood's name when he came up to address the crowd.
I remember the 17-year drought, I remember hoping the Bills would draft Josh Rosen over Josh Allen (glad I was wrong with that one) and I remember the Andy Dalton TD that sent Buffalo to the playoffs that started this run we are currently on.
What I don't remember is Jack Kemp tossing TDs, OJ making runs, and those AFL Championships. So this list might miss some tough losses in the 60s and 70s, but blame my parents since I was born in 1977.
So here in my personal opinion are the toughest most heart-breaking losses in Buffalo Bills history.
Where would you put Monday's loss on the list?
