How the Buffalo Bills became Football's Tragic Hero

What does it mean to be a fan? The Buffalo Bills have a long and complex history. These two statements may seem completely unrelated, but the uncovering the history of this historic NFL franchise may help us learn valuable lessons about sports fandom, and ourselves. From Josh Allen, to O.J. Simpson, to the 4 consecutive Super Bowl losses in the '90's, these are the Buffalo Bills

Remember, they agreed to trade their 10th pick in the 2017 Draft to get a haul of resources... to Kansas City; KC got Mahomes.
-
Chiefs fan here. Bills Mafia is without a doubt my favorite opposing team's fanbase. Awesome people that love football. Great job on the video.
-
“13 Seconds” will never be duplicated. Truly a loss for the ages.
-
Why Buffalo stories seems like a really sad movie
-
OJ sure knifed his way through the defense
-
I got an ad for Ram trucks after you said "Orenthal James"
-
As a Bills fan and a long time watcher of you, I welcome you to the fanbase :)
-
i recently started getting in football and was looking for a team to cheer on. this video has conviced me to join the bills mafia
-
I was born and raised in Dallas so I will always mourn the Texas SB that might have been. I have mad respect for the Bills and I truly hope their day will come
-
As a lifetime Buffalonian who never really got into football but was recommended this video by a friend.... This honestly just sounds like I dodged a bullet not being a Bills fan. Y'all truly live a tortured existence.
-
Many fans were sick & tired of the Bills making the SB again in the ‘93 season vs the Cowboys & then lost 4 consecutive SBs. I sure was excited towards the end of the ‘94 season when they were eliminated for playoff contention. Looking back now, it is a remarkable feat they even made the SB 4 consecutive seasons. The Chiefs this decade could probably match it.
-
Crazy timing. Netflix just released the 30 for 30 or whatever show about the 4 peat Superbowl losses.
-
My mom, who could care less about sports, felt bad for the 90s Bills after the fourth SB lost in a row.
-
you take one look at Josh Allen and you get why the kid's a winner.
-
Honestly as an eagles fan, I kinda feel the buffalo bills fans. All my life we got close to the SB or had our runs and never got lucky until 2017. The Bills are who I root for in the AFC cause I honestly feel like their fan base and ours are pretty similar. I hope they get a SB with Allen. Quality franchise with awesome fans!
-
As a Chiefs fan I love this video. I respect Buffalo a ton, and hope that one day their fans can hoist their own Lombardi.
-
Simpson is proof that Justice may be Blind but it sure knows what Money smells like...
-
You made a well edited, well documented video on the history of the Buffalo Bills :) I've been a follower of the Bills since 2017 and have just become a full-time fan since this season as well (attended Miami game as first Bills game) It seems painful now that the 1 big thing standing between Bills and the Super Bowl is Patrick Mahomes. Hopefully, this will be something like the Bulls of the NBA, once they get over the hump of their conference rival, the doors wide open for the Chip! Hope to see more videos like this should you ever do another deep dive ❤

As a bills fan.. all I have to say is… “ hurt…” yes that’s a gotg reference… and I felt my stomach drop and my heart stop watching that ball just drift right from the kick. I immediately turned the tv off, turned my phone to do not disturb and just went to bed. Next day I still wore my bills hat and my jersey. Win or lose I will be a buffalo fan.

you should do a video on how the islanders 1980s dynasty is so forgotten. they won 4 stanley cups in a row and the most playoff series in a row of any team in north american sports history.
