In 1992, his Buffalo Bills were trailing the Houston Oilers by a score of 35-3 in the 3rd quarter of an AFC Wildcard playoff game ..... amazingly, Reich engineered yet another historic comeback, leading his Bills to a 38-35 win in overtime in what turned out to be the team's 3rd of 4 consecutive runs to a Super Bowl appearance.

They actually took a 38-35 lead in regulation and the Oilers had to come back with a game-tying drive to force OT. Bills won 41-38.
