Remember this game like it was yesterday. Maddox was good in 02 and decent in 03 then we drafted Ben. This game bothered me for the rest of the year because you should never give up a 17 point lead in the 4th. It's fitting that Vick ended his career as a Steeler because 2 of his most remarkable games was vs the Steelers, 02 and 06 and both were crazy finishes.
@@yetz2291 diehard Giants fan here. Most people like to talk to me about "Tyree's TD catch" and I'm like "uhhh you mean to go up 10-7?" A lot of folks think he caught Plaxico's TD
Me and my buddy were at this game and it's something I'll never forget. 20 years ago I was 20. I was a steelers fan and my buddy was a falcons fan. We both got hammered and had the time of our lives. The crowd was crazy. The game was crazy. Just an all around good ass time.
Love these throwbacks. Ah 2002, when NFL PrimeTime existed, when teams played 16 games, and when it was normal to see Tommy Maddox and Michael Vick put on a show.
For that one season in 2002 they actually did! They even abandoned the run and Tommy Gun was slingin' it that year! But he fell back down to earth really fast...
Thank you for uploading! I share these with my friends and we reminisce about simpler times... like when you had to manually calculate your fantasy football team's scoring!
We will probably never see anything thing so heart wrenchingly close again in our lifetime. This pissed me off. If the Steelers didn't capitalize on the 2 previous scoring attempts, Atlanta should have. Vick led the Falcons offense and I'm still surprised they didn't win a title with Vick.
The greatest tie of all time lol. Not really something to be proud about for either team but it was entertaining as hell to watch as a fan. With the weapons both teams had, there is really no reason it should have ended in a tie. And for the game to end on a hail Mary pass that ends up being completed at the one yard line as time expires is the cherry on top of a "legendary" game 😂
I love this channel you post the best games ever let's me relive awesome memories..only thing I will say is I wish you didnt tell us it was a tie because i wouldve loved to watch this game not knowing the outcome this is easily one of the greatest regular season games ever played that nobody will remember..thank you for this channel seriously but if I didnt know it was gonna be a tie I'd be on the edge of my seat watching waiting to see the outcome ..but still thanks for all your posts they are awesome 👍🏻👍🏻
I'd have to say that 3 reciever group for the Steelers , wow . Probably never get much credit , but they were perfect to compliment each other's skillset .
I remember this game, 02 Vick was still very much young almost in his prime. I Keith Brooking was a beast but the Falcons defense over and over made the same mistakes year end and year out... no defensive line pressure on the QB and blown coverages. It seemed only fitting that it followed us to the SB. Damnit we can never learn even after decades.
Notice Vick dropping back in a traditional offense. Can only imagine if they had the innovation of the shotgun with the zone read option or RPOs around 2002-04. Oh what could have been
Strange story. I am a Steeler fan in Ohio. Watched the game the whole time. The local broadcast cut away before the last play Hail Mary to show a news broadcast tornado warning very far from our Akron location. They did show last play approx. 15 mins later. Long before I had a cell phone to find results. Wild game
I know in 2002 Al Michaels and John Madden paired up and were legendary and Cris Collinsworth was great to listen to, but Sam Rosen and Bill Maas in my opinion were the most entertaining. I love listening to old games they called.
@@crosslinezero3572 thank you! I swear when ever someone says the obligatory "Back when" it's usually to complain and exaggerate about something that's not true.
Yup steelers had a dangerous WR core and once Ben came in, it became even dangerous. And yes, thats Vick fault. Riddled with injuries because he REFUSED to slide and linebackers loved it
A couple of records were broken in this game, but those records have since been broken. - Tommy Maddox threw for 473 yards, which originally broke Bobby Layne's franchise record. However, Maddox's record was broken by Ben Roethlisberger in 2009, when Ben Threw for 503 yards against the Packers and then for 500 plus yards two more times to break his own record. - Plaxico Burress set a franchise record with 253 receiving yards, until his record was broken in a November 2015 game against the Raiders by Antonio Brown, when AB had 284 yards receiving in that one. This was a wild crazy high scoring affair and it's not what the Steelers of this era were used to, as the year prior, they were a dominant running team but were transformed into a potent passing offense when Maddox took over for Kordell Stewart during the 2002 season.
Man if this was a boxing match, Steelers win on a unanimous decision! Vick was such a fun player to watch. Was the Bus hurt for this game? And was Maddox the Steelers starting qb in 03 until they drafter Ben in 04?
People forget about Maddox because Ben came after him, but man could he sling it. Also, does anyone else miss the NFL on FOX scoreboard graphics cerca 2001-2002 or is it just me?
12:13 Dude now I know why people are comparing Lamar Jackson to Vick lol except every time Lamar makes a play like that it's called back by penalty smh the refs are crazy nowadays
In the X amount of years the NFL has been around, I still think they need to get rid of ties. I mean, just do college rules or something. 0-0-1 is so stupid.
That’s a good throw at the end, he let it go high enough where the receivers could get down, but could let them get into position as well just plaxico didn’t have the ball in the end zone
the good ole days when its 3rd and 22 and youre in I formation
Jpgoeagles I miss those days
And it's a deep throw that's complete, RIP NFL
💀
Hilarious but so true
Fucking love it
This was one of the best regular season games in NFL history. Even though it will never be recognized as such.
I recognize it as such. 2002 and 2003 had some really great games that get kinda lost in time because they weren't playoff games
if someone had won it'd really be up there
Amen, Brother Boat.
Thay makes no sense. This video literally dis just that and your dumb af
The highest scoring tie game is panthers bengals 37-37 2014
This could've been an episode of "Days of Our Steelers".

Gotta show Warrick Dunn some love here. For a guy that wasn’t a big running back, he was tenacious. Great speed and didn’t go down easily.

What about 2010 Eagles @ Giants?
Price Pittsburgh giving up 25 point lead is worse, especially to a team you’re better then!
I would argue that the 06 game was even crazier as both starting QBs were knocked out of the game.
"This is a day Plaxico Burress will never forget..."
And then 2008 happened, and all was redeemed.
But then no one remembers because of David Tyree

Especially when they are really great.

Plaxico Burress definitely shot up on the WR rankings that day.
Must of had a leg up on the competition.
haha

Maddox and Vick going at it hahaha I love it!!!
16:19 "But how could the Falcons let this happen?"
Fast forward 14 years, and truer words were never spoken.
Gotta love good old Touchdown Tommy. The Steelers thought they finally had a good caliber QB.
For that one season in 2002 they actually did! They even abandoned the run and Tommy Gun was slingin' it that year! But he fell back down to earth really fast...
The Steelers Version of “One yard short” 😂
Viewer:This game is so good its too bad there’s going to be a loser.
God:I got you!
And I thought Big Ben could sling it, tommy Maddox was throwing some dimes and I had no idea
I turned 8 during the 2002 season, and it’s by far my favorite season I’ve experienced.
One of my favorite Falcons teams, the year they stunned Green Bay in the playoffs...
I remember watching this game like yesterday... I must be getting old 😕 Mike Vick was incredible during his time with the Falcons 🙌😍👏 #GoFalcons
I was at that game craziest game I've ever seen
To bad he was dog fighting he was so good even tho I'm a Steeler fan
I remember watching that game as well upset at our offense in o.t.! I must be getting old too... Seems like yesterday.
@@pinkyboi6384 he wasn't even dog fighting he just financed it. But at least dog fighting no longer exist. His conviction put a stop to all of that.
@@TexasNewsOwL i really doubt that
Was fortunate enough to go to this game. Steelers fan but Vick was my favorite player. Unbelievable game.
Lmao The Falcons TWO 3rd and 20+ plays on the same drive! I wonder how many times that’s been done.
Packers did it against the cards but on fourth down in that legendary game
Michael Vick had a field day with the steelers!!!
he had multiple field days vs the steelers when he was the Falcons QB. They beat the steelers in the other game that was back and forth
One of my favorite games as a Falcons fan
I remember watching this game as a 19 year old still the greatest Game I ever watched
Atlanta had no business leaving this game with a tie
Vick was a BEAST
I loved watching this Steelers team. The offence and defense was loaded with talent. The Steelers should have won the Superbowl this year.

That Steeler team looked so good on paper. Placico Burress, Hines Ward, Antoine Randell-ell...OH SHIT
Yea man the best
Don’t forget Bettis
Too bad they had slow ass Tommy Maddox

Vicks arm was a diamond cutter
Vick arm strength was outrageous, most gifted QB ever
Wow I was 11 yrs old when they had this game. I binge watched NFL games growing up. This was 2 yrs before the Roethlisberger era. I can remember 2002.
What an unbelievable game and ending!!! 🤯
Wow these ole games are good to watch Vick got stopped big time what a team we had Steelers did very well thanks
You know you love your team when you are getting frustrated about a game that happened 18 YEARS ago. My Falcons just love to make me uncomfortable lol
I wish they had the hang time back on live when punters kick that's pretty cool, since my niners got Wishnowsky
I'd have to say that 3 reciever group for the Steelers , wow . Probably never get much credit , but they were perfect to compliment each other's skillset .
That hit Crumpler put on Porter was great.
I remember this game, 02 Vick was still very much young almost in his prime. I Keith Brooking was a beast but the Falcons defense over and over made the same mistakes year end and year out... no defensive line pressure on the QB and blown coverages.

Highlights like this is why I call people casuals who say “Vick can’t throw” that’s blasphemy.

That was a hell of a game by both teams.
I remember this game I was 12.
I can remember wanting to be a Quarterback. I played football in 7th and 8th grade. It wasn't meant to happen. Never played in High School.
Antoine R, Hines and Plaxico...good receivers. Also Vick only played in 16 games once in his career.
Yup steelers had a dangerous WR core and once Ben came in, it became even dangerous. And yes, thats Vick fault. Riddled with injuries because he REFUSED to slide and linebackers loved it

That block by Crumpler on Porter 😮💨
Maddox be throwin some dimes back then
this game is proof as long as you had vick as your quarterback (back then)you dont have to play defense
Whew... All things considered, Burress had a heck of a game that night
Wow what a game!!
Probably best game in NFL history that had no winner
10:27 that block thought

Probably THE GREATEST NFL FOOTBALL GAME OF ALL TIME!
Wow, Plaxico, Randell el' Santonio Holmes, and hines Ward???
I miss these days

Man if this was a boxing match, Steelers win on a unanimous decision! Vick was such a fun player to watch. Was the Bus hurt for this game? And was Maddox the Steelers starting qb in 03 until they drafter Ben in 04?
sub4ra Steelers win in a unanimous decision? They blew a 17 point lead in the 4th Quarter. 🙄
What a game!
Man as a Ravens fan, I remember Hines ward, plaxico and randel el all together
And then emmanual Sanders later.
They were fucking scary
And bettis... Fucking aye man.
And back then they had amazing defenses too.
Ravens Steelers used to be THE rivalry to watch. Still kind of is.
Steelers had a star cast of receivers
Insane finish
Now that’s what I’m talking about!
Atlien here and I remember watching this game live it made me so mad that it was a tie.
For those who came to see the 5th most cowardly punt in the 21st according to the surrender index it's at 14:33

Charlie Franz miss the hell of the scoreboard but Maddox wasn’t anything special
The 03 Fox scoreboard was legendary. Also the first scoreboard used in 04 was also awesome. But I am not high on these ones.
The Steelers had such a good reciever group back then
The Steelers, Bucs, and the Ravens always gave Vick trouble. Great game
Eagles
12:13 Dude now I know why people are comparing Lamar Jackson to Vick

Wow, I forgot how talented the Steelers were before Roethlisberger joined them the following season I believe
Ben joined two seasons later after the Steelers were 6-10 in 2003.
Before Goodell took over and started destroying the NFL.
The owners must like him or they would fire him and hire someone else. But yah he's a asshole.
In the X amount of years the NFL has been around, I still think they need to get rid of ties. I mean, just do college rules or something. 0-0-1 is so stupid.
Up by seventeen with eight to go in the fourth, and in typical Steeler fashion it goes to OT. Some things never change.
"How could the Falcons let this happen?" They kept him out of the end zone!
Yeah but they got lucky! It was bad defense by the secondary that play.
It should never have been that close.
That’s a good throw at the end, he let it go high enough where the receivers could get down, but could let them get into position as well just plaxico didn’t have the ball in the end zone
So glad they changed OT to 10 minutes
Even though it increases the likelihood of a tie?
Disagree 100%. Who likes ties?
Yes! More classic steelers!
