In the first round of the 1997 NFL Playoffs, Reich took over as quarterback for the Detroit Lions when Scott Mitchell was knocked out of the game. The score was close the entire game, with the clock winding down it was up to Reich to make a huge play. Instead, Reich dropped back and spiked the ball to stop the clock. Little did he know, it was fourth down and the ball went back to Tampa Bay. This was the one of the last times the Lions made the playoffs, and the last time Barry Sanders was seen on the field.

The 1993 NFL playoff game between the Buffalo Bills and the Houston Oilers (also known as "The Comeback") featured the Bills recovering from a 32-point deficit to win in overtime, and it remains the largest comeback in NFL history. The game is also remembered for being won by the Bills backup quarterback Frank Reich. It was played in Rich Stadium, and was televised by NBC, with Charlie Jones and Todd Christensen calling the action. The stadium did not sell out for this game and was therefore blacked out in Western New York and Southern Ontario. As a result, local fans did not get to see the game live.
