The Buffalo Bills bowed out of the playoffs in heartbreaking fashion on Sunday night in a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the divisional round after kicker Tyler Bass missed a game-tying 44-yard field goal late in the fourth quarter.

Bass’s kick sailed wide right of the uprights, bringing an end to the Bills’ season in a 27–24 defeat.

A critical missed field goal in the playoffs is a sight all too familiar to fans in Buffalo, and Bass’s misfire sent the NFL world down memory lane as they remembered the infamous missed field goal from former Bills kicker Scott Norwood during Super Bowl XXV against the New York Giants.

Football fans on X were quick to make comparisons between Bass’s whiffed attempt and Norwood’s notorious miss from the 1990 season, both of which were from 44 yards out.
