1929 Buffalo Bisons (NFL) season

The team marginally improved on their previous output of 0–5, winning one game.

After suspending operations halfway through the 1927 season, the Buffalo Bisons, name intact, returned for what proved to be a farewell season, with Al Jolley (a former player for the Oorang Indians) taking over as head coach.

Jolley's dubious trademark was his teams' lack of offensive production; the Bisons never scored more than 7 points in the entire season (they had been shut out thrice) until their final game, a 19–7 win over the Chicago Bears (ironically, the very team that had robbed them of a league title at the peak of the team's success in 1921).

[2] This was, however, still an improvement from their 1927 season, when the team failed to score any points in all but one of their games.

Jolley went on to coach the Cincinnati Reds in 1933; true to form, Jolley's Reds set a record for fewest points scored per game in a season (3.8) in the modern era (which did not begin until 1932).

Bisons end Tillie Voss has no chance to make a stop of Bears quarterback Joey Sternaman when facing a cut-block by Bill Senn and the interference of fullback Red Grange, October 13.
