Actually, Reich's football legacy will likely be more remembered for being the quarterback who engineered 2 of the greatest comebacks ever in
BOTH professional
AND college football than for his 2 stints as a head coach.
In 1984, his University of Maryland team was losing to Miami-Fla by a score of 31-0 at halftime ...... Reich engineered an unprecedented comeback for his Terrapins to win that game by a score of 42-40.
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.
