Buffalo Bills News, standings, schedule and more... And more... The history of the Buffalo Bills started back in 1960 when they were a charter member of the American Football League (AFL). After winning two AFL titles, the league merged with the National Football League in 1970. Since 1973 the team has played its home games in Ralph Wilson Stadium. However, before 1998 the stadium was known as Rich Stadium.
The glory years of the franchise began when they drafted quarterback Jim Kelly and hired coach Marv Levy halfway through the season. After adding wide receiver Andre Reed, defensive end Bruce Smith and running back Thurman Thomas, the pieces were finally in place for a tremendous run of success.
From 1990 to 1993 the Buffalo Bills were able to reach the Super Bowl. There has never been another NFL team that has been able to repeat that success. Despite that tremendous level of success, the Bills are probably best known for being the only team to lose four straight Super Bowl games.
Their first Super Bowl in 1990 made the term "wide right" famous when their field goal kicker missed a potential game winning field goal in the last few seconds of the game. During their Super Bowl run of 1992 they had the biggest playoff comeback in league history. After being behind 35-3 early in the third quarter, and without their starting quarterback, they were led by Frank Reich to the dramatic come from behind win. This allowed them to advance in the playoffs.
During their final Super Bowl in 1993, it looked like they would finally win the game when they had the lead at halftime. However, it wasn't meant to be as they lost the game by a score of 30-13.
Although they are most well known for losing the Super Bowl four times in a row,it shouldn't be forgotten that no other team has been able to reach the game four consecutive years.
