LOL Seriously though, Stanford/Cal is just as epic/known. I forgot about Stanford-Cal. That might be the top one. Or Miami's vs. Duke last year. Or that terrible DIII team Trinity college that had 1000 laterals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmen Cygni Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 For me it was an incredible, toe-tapping, outstretched, go-ahead, winning Super Bowl catch w/ :35 seconds left among a trio of defenders in the corner of the endzone to cap off a 2 minute 78 yard drive in the waning moments.

I also agree with the OP who mentioned the Saints doing the onside kick to start the second half. That call required some serious stones, and as much as I despise Sean Payton, I really respect that call. Another play that just took my breath away was Devin Hester's opening kickoff return for the TD in the rain against the Colts. Everyone knew it was coming but didn't really believe it would actually happen, then Hester goes and takes it to the house. Unbelieveable! That guy was the best I've ever seen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HN_d09Ivd8 Finally, even though I wanted to see Randy Moss get a ring, that David Tyree catch against the Patriots also has to go down as one of the best ever.

Saints doing the onside kick and getting it was one of the ballsiest calls ever. That was how freakin' good Peyton Manning & the Colts were back then. They thought they need to pull something out of the hat to win. Hester was ridiculous. At the top of his game, he was unstoppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I don't know about it being the best play ever, but this is probably my favorie football video of all time. You've gotta love it when a big guy gets the chance to house a long one! The music was perfect too. Big Baby takes it to the house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckoz24 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 It's difficult to say as everyone's criteria is a bit different. The onside kick was ballsy, the catch was lucky, the run was a great individual performance. You could interchange all of these. Being a Saints fan and watching the documentary with how they planned for it, I gotta give it to the Saints. Imagine being in the locker room in the Superbowl and hearing the codename "Ambush".

y*so*blu Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Of the ones I've seen, Beast Quake and the Helmet Catch. The former was an inspired run where the entire Seattle offense joined Lynch in blowing the Saints right off the field. The Helmet Catch was insane. Manning should've been sacked within seconds. Instead he somehow stayed upright and threw the ball on a prayer, and Tyree made a miracle catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sean Payton would tone down the cuteness, Saints would convert an extra third down a game feels like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polamalus diving one handed int was pretty nasty as well vs San Diego Troy had a similar Int vs Phili , what a play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
