2 unusual facts about Bruce DeHaven


Bruce DeHaven

DeHaven was made the scapegoat and fired by the organization, but his reputation remained strong because A) the Bills were perceived to have over-reacted in relation to his 13 years of superb coaching and B) it was discovered that DeHaven had specifically had his coverage unit prepare for exactly the play that Tennessee ran, and also for the threat that Kevin Dyson presented, only to watch the players blow their assignments as Dyson scored a historic season-killing TD.

The Bills lost to the Tennessee Titans in a game called the Music City Miracle, where Tennessee executed one of the most famous plays in NFL history on a kickoff return/cross-field lateral called "Home Run Throwback" to score a game-winning touchdown with seconds left in the 4th quarter.
