Dolphins-Bills '95 Wild Card with Denny Carter

Denny Carter (NBC Sports/Rotoworld, Bad Faith Times) and host Thomas Emerick trace the journey from young Dolphins fan tormented by Buffalo to team-agnostic adult empathizing with Bills Mafia. To do this, we travel through time to find Denny with decently high hopes in December 1995 for the AFC Wild Card in the Saturday early slot. What transpires is Miami and Dan Marino's third playoff exit at the hands of the Buffalo Bills just in the '90s. The decade is barely halfway through, and this one is the most emphatic. Bills rushed for about 350 yards. Has it ever been established so hard?Remember That Game is a podcast about sporting events that take you on a journey and chart the path of the zeitgeist.
