Read this today.. Ouch.

Bills have been outscored 70-16 last three trips to Pittsburgh, with only one offensive TD. During those games, Bills average only 87 rush yards and 135.7 passing yards.

Last Bill to rush for 100 yards at Pitt was GReg Bell, who had 123 in 1985. Most passing yards was Jim Kelly (212) in 1994, and hte only Bill WR with triple digit yardage was Haven Moses (122) in 1970.

Bills QB's have 2 TD and 10 INT during the five game losing streak there.

That's some ugly numbers.. Hopefully the dont continue Sunday

Pittsburgh had 6 sacks, and forced 6 turnovers in Cleveland last week.

It's going to get U.G.L.Y. on sunday for sure! Especially given Losman's propensity for turnovers.

As of now, they're up 10-8 in regular season meetings, so it's not "historically bad". The Bills and Steelers have played 10 times @ RICH. I've been to 9 of them, and the Bills have won 7 (lost the last 2).

I was there in Pittsburgh for the '96 a** whoopin' the Bills took from them. Don Beebe was blasted into the next week in that one. I was also there in '93 when Pittsburgh shut us out in another beating. Suffice to say we've had much more success @ home against them.

The larger the odds, the larger the victory.

If we can somehow find a way to pull an upset, I could see us making a playoff run.

For what it's worth, those games in Pitt were @ Three Rivers, not Heinz.

Not that that matters, but it's also all new players 9 years later.

As the old adage says... That was then, this is now! Let's wait and see the results. I am not convinced they're any tougher a matchup than Denver. I see the Bills being inspired due to the incident last week with KE, we'll see!!

We're marginally better than Cleveland and Pitt decimated them in their building.

This is their home opener and they will be fired up and ready to play unlike we were in our home opener.

I was there as well for that one. It was a Monday night game. The one thing I remember from that game is Levon Kirkland intercepting Kelly way down field.

For the record, I think Pittsburgh fell on the floor laughing when the schedule was released earlier this year. They thought thy had 6 pre-season games, and in essense, they do.

Buffalo hasn't won in the 'Burgh since January 1993, I read today. Yikes.

Last Bill to rush for 100 yards at Pitt was Greg Bell, who had 123 in 1985.

I think I just had a flashback to college and that chick who gave me...ewww...nevermind.


The only Bill WR with triple digit yardage was Haven Moses (122) in 1970.

Okay NOW you're bringing back some memories. There's clips of that game in the 1984 high-light film, Years of Glory, Years of Pain.

When I think of playing in Pittsburgh, I think of two good games:

OJ running for 227 in 1975.

Reich leading us to a 24-3 Divisional Victory in 1993.

Neither guy is playing for us tomorrow.

Thanks for the trip down amnesia lane Pat.

You get the Historian's Gold Star for the day!

Incidentally, that December 1985 game is memorable because of the way the Bills lost it:

Buffalo was winning 21-0 on TDs by Greg Bell (77 yd run) Jerry Butler (33 pass from Bruce Mathison) and a Don Wilson fumble recovery. (61 yards)

Then, true to form, the Bills went to sleep, and only scored a FG the rest of the way, losing 30-24.

The following week we got shutout in the finale by the fish 28-0.
