River city relay had me rolling, the sheer miracle of that play for the kicker to come out and just absolutely biff an extra point, the announcers made it so much funnier
That was FUXKING HILARIOUS!
It was the most Saints play ever.
NOOOO! 😮
How could he DO THAT?!?!
As a saints fan this whole video hurt
The “NOOOOOOO!” on the River city relay you could honestly hear the pain in the announcers voice
I remember it :*(
Yeah, and that was back when place kickers might miss one PAT a year.
That missed kick eliminated the saints from playoff contention
The Jon Bois "Pretty Good" video on this is amazing.
That play sums up being a Saints fan. The XP didn't get blocked. He just flat out missed it. And that was when they were still kicking from the 2 yard line. If we win that game in OT. we're in the playoffs that year.
The NFL has done an incredible job of keeping alive games from years ago. Restoration and preserving old media is extremely difficult to do, but games from 50+ years ago can still be seen today in great condition. My dad and I enjoy watching games that he went to live, and that is done by the conservation efforts of NFL.
It is mostly because of the "NFL Films" organization.
Thank Steve Sabel
I mean they have to, the players arent gonna remember

The most amazing part about the Miracle at the Meadowlands' is having Merrill Reese narrating for all three of them! 1978 to still broadcasting today. What a legend!
The Miracle Trifecta at the Meadowlands?
There are 4 actually. Brian Westbrook did it in the early 2000s on a punt return also. Just not 0 time left.
The original MATM is the reason why today teams will get into the victory formation before snapping the ball which makes that play virtually impossible to duplicate.
@@STI2000 Not only that, but that play is why victory formation was even invented.

I know that took you a while. Thank you
How tf isn’t Richard Sherman's iconic tip against Michael Crabtree in the NFC Championship in here? One of the greatest clutch plays ever made by a CB
It's amazing that Merrill Reese was the radio commentator for the Miracle at the Meadowlands in 1978 and still holds that position in 2022. He is the voice of the Eagles.
Seeing all those plays in a row was amazing. Love the Eagles.
Watching those clips are like a knife in my heart as a Giants fan. Damn. Back to back. I'm not even from New York, but I love my Giants. I didn't realize how much hometown pride I had until I started watching these videos, and I started seeing Lett lowlights, and realized I must have been born a Cowboys fan, but it's buried deep, deep down, cuz those hurt, too.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ we don’t do that here.
Hearing Merrill on all 4 Eagles highlights spanning almost 35 years is incredible.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Is he and Eagles fan too?
23:11 - For those who don't know, The play is called Beast Quake because all the jumping and cheering caused a 1.0 earthquake registered at the University of Washington Seismic Lab 6 miles away, with the epicenter being Centurylink Field.
i thought it was called that because he broke so many tackles and im a seahawks fan
The Seahawks with lynch and the legion of boom were monsters
If they let Marshawn run that ball
The Seahawks would've been a brutal dynasty
The guttural NO on that Saints missed FG after the insane last second touchdown is bliss.
How could he do that?!
🤣🤣🤣 you're a villain, sir.
It was the extra point actually. What's worse is that John Carney was one of the best kickers in football at the time and is in fact 5th on the career scoring list.
Man it's rough being a saints fan, we're on the wrong side of so many heartbreaking moments
GUTTURAL is the perfect word to describe it
The best ones are always when you remember the play by play alongside it. I'll always know Aaron Rodgers turned 32 yesterday, or Desean Jackson got a block, and Freeman DID do what.
R.I.P. Franco Harris. Long live Immaculate Reception
Or my personal favorite, that Mike Jones made the tackle
That Gronkowski didn’t have the angle, or that Keenum stepped into it.
RIP FRANCO HARRIS
That Marino finally did something I had been waiting to see for years, the fake-spike pass
Or that there was an interception at the goal line by Malcom Butler
The immaculate reception is a perfect mix of quick thinking and luck. Rip Franco and fly high knowing you made the greatest play of all time
and possibly ref ball... but what would the NFL be without plays that ride the gray area fringe of their rulebook.
(For those who don't know at the time of this play if the ball ricochets off the steeler player and not the raider Franco can't legally catch the ball and advance it. for it to be a legal catch it needs to clearly hit the Raiders defender. Of course its also sick reflexes and awareness by Franco because if he dived to make that catch he'd also have been down by the rules of the time and also couldn't advance so his awareness here is incredible.)
@@rockstermaniac if you can't tell who it hit off 50 years later with several replay angles then they definitely couldn't tell live. Simple physics are in favor of the ball going off the raiders defender because there's no way a ball bounces that hard off of a player running the other way as opposed to directly at the ball.
Yeah
@@LugiaPWNZ exactly
@@LugiaPWNZ Correct. In Physics, the way the ball traveled and what velocity logically concludes that the ball had to have bounced off of Tatum.
My goodness that “wrong way run” gets me EVERY FREAKING TIME!!! 😂😂😂
LOL it sounds like a Monty Python bit
“He thinks he has scored a touchdown. He’s scored a safety.” Perfect line
Lol. What's even funnier is that it's 3x All- Pro, 2x Pro Bowler, and regular nominee for Hall of Fame DE Jim Marshall. One of my favorite blunders from one of the best players.
im glad that they showed the extra point attempt after the river city relay. I'd argue that gut wrenching NO is just as iconic as that run
Oh dude fr you can't show the River City Relay without the NOOOO at the end of the extra point attempt
When I first saw that replay, that painful NO took me by surprise more so than the actual miss FG.
Couldn’t even hide the emotion “How could HE do THAT?!”
th-cam.com/video/2Yru_1al8EY/w-d-xo.html
That "NO!" is the most pained call I've ever heard from an announcer. It came from his soul.
Every time I see that damn play. Every time they have to show the extra point lol. The announcer screaming "NO!!"
You're missing The No-No Go-Go. Devin Hester's FG return against the Giants.
Never heard that called anything. Just always on highlight reels. Most people don't have a name for it so probably why it's not here. Although I'm sure people can do better than The No-No Go-Go lol
Edit: I do agree though that's a classic and needs a good name. After thinking about it I'm kind of mad it doesn't have one lol
What about Ab imacculant extension
apparently its not cannon.
what are you doing here?
Damn I actually might stop watching horror movies if you're involved
“He wants to know if it’s real. They said ‘Yes, get your big butt out of here’. He does”
That line will forever crack me up. 19:25 for anyone wondering
This play led to one of the many 'Raider Rules' in the NFL rulebook. Namely, only the fumbling player can recover and advance a fumble within the last two minutes of the game. Otherwise, it is returned to the spot of the fumble.....all thanks to the Holy Roller.
@@WinByTKo Funny part is you don't even need that rule for that play, that was a forward pass lol
Unfortunately the NFL has changed the rules over the years so that play sadly can never happen again.
@@WinByTKo wait what?? i had no idea this was a rule
@josephlawson5954 the NFL added the "Dave Casper rule" the following off-season
4:51 the “Fail Mary”😂😂😂😂
Jon Bois has prepared me for the River City relay, but that gut wrenching "NO" always breaks my heart.
How could he do that...
A man of culture I see
He definitely had money on the game
@@HiHi-nv1lc YOU, AINT, LYING
😂.
A whole lot of money 😆
That was him dying inside and I bet they both had money on that.
I was shocked and saddened to learn that Franco Harris, hero of the 'Immaculate Reception', had passed away a mere couple of days before the 50th anniversary of the play. Rest in peace, Franco Harris.
-- P. S. and I'm a Raiders fan! --
Same bro 😂👊
Me too. He was a great man. It's worse that his death came days before a celebration for him
Yeah when you think Steelers he’s one of the first things I think of rip
I actually learned this from you, may he rest in peace, it's funny that I thought his name was Frank O'Harris
RIP Seattle Seahawks franchise legend Franco Harris
9:50 is the most heartfelt NO I have ever heard. Lmao.
😂
no voice actor can match that😭
Haha
Lmaooo fr
Miracle in the meadowlands with desean Jackson will forever be one of the greatest football moments I’ve seen. everything leading up to it, plus the fact that the initial bobble of the punt allowed for the PERFECT route to be taken. If he caught it and started running earlier he surely would have been tackled
DeSean* Jackson ...
This really highlights the evolution of the kicking position. 47 yards was the longest of his career and thats barely a challenging kick nowdays.
For Scott Norwood? That was to be his longest on grass. Except for Miami, everyone in the AFC East was on turf and that was with 5 teams in the division. A lot more turf, and flat carpet turf, back then.
Soccer-style kickers increased accuracy, but moving the hashmarks in and creating rules that have made it almost impossible to block kicks has also given kickers less to think about=cooled, if not eliminated, pressure, and has driven percentages up, although, they've dropped in the last couple of pro football seasons. Increasing the height of the uprights has also helped expand the target for kickers, and made it much easier for officials to determine if a kick is good or no good. Beginning in the mid to late '60's the NFL also began putting two officials under the goalposts on FGs and PATS..
Better grass and no baseball dirt has also improved kicking surfaces, as have no-wind and no- elements domed/retractable roof stadiums..
Yep..
There is no comparison of the kickers of the past to now. You are exactly correct. Check out the 1979 Super Bowl PIT VS LA RAMS Matt Bahr kicks a 41 yard field goal in that game and it BARELY makes it over the crossbar.
The NFL can't stop putting smiles and sadness on our faces and it's really tough to remember how your team got beaten someday on here or won but it's also a beauty to watch as well.
Right? Started off all smiles but I gotta take a break halfway through, some of these are memories of real heartbreak. Silly sport has worked its way so deeply into our culture and lives heh. Come on Snyder, sell the damn team.
@@johnsimth6587 yeah, as a packers fan the emotional roller coaster that was the motown miracle followed by the fail mary 2 play later was rough
@@joaquinshook3306 the fail mary still hurts to this day
@@johnsimth6587 ^^ that last statement. I dont think Washington was in this compilation at all. Maybe that's saying something...
@@adammoldover8769 Oh, I notice that. That and how quick during the season like half of the cutaways for sports talk shows is awesome plays against Washington. I know, I know.
I was at the Beastquake game. We were the 7-9 NFC West champions and got to host vs the defending SB Champion New Orleans Saints. Obviously people thought it was a ridiculous rule. But regardless I was able to buy 2 tickets and took my wife to her first Seahawks game. And when Marshawn Lynch broke that run off in the 2nd half the place went absolutely crazy!!! Watching that play still gives me goosebumps 10+ years later 😊
That is awesome
Yes ! GO HAWKS
I remember watching this game...my bro was a Saints fan and was upset about that game not played in New Orleans....so he, like the 'Aints...declared victory to show the NFL that is was a bad rule....instead, the 'Aints helped make history as the 'Hawks were the first playoff team with a losing record to win a playoff game! I teased the HELL out of my bro....of course, he jabs back with the "at least we won a SuperBowl!"
@@jaydubb2092 I'm confused both teams each have one Lombardi trophy.
@@hatmoney3340 While that is true, this game happened before the Seahawks won theirs
The announcer screaming about Karneys missed extra point had to have had money in that game lol
Watching the "River City Relay" I kept thinking to myself, I remember this play and it was awesome but why do I feel like something terrible is about to happen?
Oh right... Yeah... The heartbreak in the announcers voice as he screams "NO!" sums it all up
My uncle predicted that Carney was going to miss the extra point. He was conditioned for heartbreak because of his being a lifelong Saints fan. I want to get John Carney to send him a letter that says "You caused me to miss that extra point".
@@scorpiusbalthazar4327 Send Carney a message if he’s on any social medias and see if he’ll send your uncle a cameo
I seen a lot of these plays as a kid with my dad. Didn't seem real watching these highlights and remembering good times in awe of sensational plays I miss you dad Thank you for showing me love and respect for the game Thank you for these highlights made me cry!
This is one of the best videos on TH-cam, no doubt. Even as a Raider fan I knew the Immaculate Reception was going to be the last clip and I still watch it all. I love the game no matter what.
@@Concatenate we watched tv live No TH-cam Just talk about what happened and watch it on ESPN a different era for sure Thank you
Interesting about the Seahawks "Fail Mary" is that those were back-up referees since the main refs were on strike at that time. Lots of folks think maybe this oddball call helped drive up pressure for the league to make a deal because the normal refs were back pretty soon after.
You know…I just still don’t see how Seahawks even won that. I mean the DB had possession of it from the jump to the way down. Every questionable call the seahawks were involved with, it always went there way. It’s getting a little suspicious.
@@Cyberdalii, the correct call was made.
The fact that the Packer had the ball and wasn't juggling it with sole possession as he was going down, is irrelevant.
The catch is not completed until the player has completely gone to the ground with possession.
As it was, just before the time the defensive player who initially had a clean hold on the ball hit the ground and came to a stop, the SEAHAWKS receiver reached in and got his hands on the ball BEFORE the PACKER co-receiver hit the ground, --not landing on players who were on the ground under him or landing with two feet while his body was still moving to the ground, actually touching the ground in- bounds and coming to a stop either on his own or by being forced to by contact with a defender-- the Packer touching the ball was not fully stopped on the ground. Since the offense had full control of the ball last and both players, one on each side had control of the ball when the PACKER d-back hit the ground, dual possession goes to the team that last had full possession, that was SEATTLE just before the ball was grabbed in midair by GBAY..
If the PACKER had controlled the ball all the way to the ground before the Seahawk reached in, it would have been a pick.
Watch the replay, again.
It was a correct call, and after that official took abuse and was not retained once the regular officials came back, as some of the replacements were when hired as backups, he went into deep depression, had suicidal thoughts, etc.
The wrong description of that play has ruined his life.
That is a shame..he got the call right.
Why are lines drawn thru my relevant points, TH-cam?
@@robertsprouse9282 If the rolls were reversed and Green Bay had been awarded that catch, nobody would bat an eye. It was a small market team getting the call over a big market team that caused the controversy.
@@harrycooper5231, SEATTLE is a much bigger market than G.BAY..or even GB/MILW.
BUT..the rulebook was clear(its been changed somewhat since= no longer does a receiver have to establish that he is a receiver, then a runner, he can both= catch in one motion while moving the ball on a lunge, and its a catch as long as he has control while opposition contact is made as he is lunging forward while going to the ground= DEZ BRYANT RULE..
back then..that was not the case=1. Receiver first, 2. then.. Runner second) and the ref still got it right.
If the rolls were reversed, I'd rather have the cornbread.
ROLES..
@@robertsprouse9282 WTF are you talking about? Green Bay has one of the top five biggest fan bases in the NFL. It was a discretionary call, and in the NFL discretionary calls typically go to the big market teams. You do realize the NFL is in the business of making money, right?
After the saints get a miracle TD, the kicker misses the kick and that announcer who screams NOOOOOOO .....That was his bank account going to zero!
😂
I love how Harris did the immaculate reception and Harrison got the immaculate interception
AB Got the immaculate extension
It would’ve been a lot cooler if we had found out Harrison is actually Harris’ son.
@moodyeditz642 no shit sherlock
For the same team. However, Franco Harris and the Steelers fell to the 1972 undefeated Dolphins and Harrison won the SuperBowl with that play he had. RIP Franco Harris

As a Vikings fan this is video is a perfect analogy of our history. The start gets you pumped up and before you know it your laughing about just how hard you crashed and burned.

@@justingolden21 agreed. That was the cry of supreme devastation. You got a glimpse into that guys soul because it jumped out of his body for a moment.

The greatest game winner in nfl history.
which one
Seeing that saints interception as a kid who just a few years ago didn't know if their would ever be a Saints again after Katrina was so special.
I've always considered Desean Jackson's punt return touchdown the 4th Miracle at the Meadowlands. Brian Westbrook did the same back in 2003. I guess it's because it wasn't the last play of the game and the Eagles had to defend their lead for a minute, but to me at 7 years old, jumping up and down with buffalo sauce smeared on my face while my parents were screaming like they just hit the lottery, it sure felt like a miracle moment.
I was at a movie (agreed to go before the game was scheduled) with Merrill Reese in an earbud when BWest broke that return. I still remember fist pumping silently while Ben Stiller did something at a museum on screen.
That game was a turning point in our season, and that play was a godsend in a game where our offense was totally hapless, I 100% agree that that's a part of the miracle at the Meadowlands series.
@@ThatGreenGuy85 Even the few occasions when my Giants were really good, they had trouble beating the Eagles. Hope they beat the Colts coming up because if it comes down to having to beat Philly at the end of the season, Giants are not going to make the playoffs.
Agreed. Usually the Clyde Simmons one is regrettably forgotten, so I was excited to see it here. But surprised that Westbrook’s was then omitted. This is a truly great montage though.
"Gronkowski didn't have the angle " will be etched into NFL history for eternity 🤣
Along with all his super bowl rings
He had all day!
Yep. I never understood why they had Gronk out there on that play.
with that DUMB AHH shi on his arm
The only thing uglier than that play were those Dolphin uniforms.

Crazy how DHop caught that in triple coverage against Jordan Poyer, Micah Hyde and Tre White, all of which were in their primes
That play made the "sea of hands" look lame

the raw power of this moment is unmeasurable
You can just hear the crowd erupt when he catches it, but even more so when they realize he is going to take it for 6
I hate Joe Buck but that call was utterly perfect.
Nagy's face on the double doink will forever be priceless
I believe that was his 3rd or 4th miss of the game. And he had a doink earlier. I just remember him missing short to medium kicks the whole game. That was why Nagy had such a dejected look at the end
@@ryanwarner7950Parkey was actually a perfect 3/3 in FG tries before the double doink. And the Bears went for 2 on their lone TD so he didn't have an XP attempt.
He did however have like 8 field goal tries hit the upright throughout the rest of the season. Just not that game.
@@EvboiMC you're right. I got confused with the game in Detroit when he doinked it 4 times. 2fg, 2xp.
They later saw that his double doink in the eagles game was actually partially blocked and has been recorded as a blocked fg.
Vikings Blair Walsh's kick against Seattle was still the worst I've ever seen. The sad part is when he lined up for a 27 yarder, us Vikings fan knew it was 50/50 if he'd make it. What a way to lose a playoff game at home. And dumb Zimmer still kept Walsh around the entire next season where he continued to dissapoint.
Kickers.....can't live with em.....can't live without em.
The mascot's reaction is my burned in memory
Thank you Giants for giving us (Philly) so many great memories. If we could play you 4 times a year.
I wasn't expecting to see "The Las Vegas Lateral" to be here so soon. That gaffe is going to haunt the Patriots for years to come! 😅
When I saw that (I missed it at the time) I was like "meh, an event from just last year?" then I saw the play. Haha, wow.
Not more than the Helmet Catch. Not more than The Philly Special. Those two really hurt. And then the unnamed play in the 2011 SB: the Manningham catch. (when the Patriots wanted Manning to throw to Manningham instead of Cruz or Nicks and they just got what they were asking for)

0:21 Casey Keenum had the best year of his career and never should have left the Vikings. Bradford had clearly declined in production and the team had effectively gelled around him. Every team he played with after had issues either on their O-line or under productive WRs.
The thing I love about the Murray Mary is that Fitzegerald was the first one to reach D.Hopkins to congratulate him, what an absolute unit.
i remember watching the minneapolis miracle live with my dad and we went absolutely ballistic, especially with him being a vikings fan. one moment of my life i'll never forget
meanwhile my dad a saints fan watching that game on tv…
As a Saints fan, most of the last 10 years have been nothing but pain. I firmly believe that in almost every other parallel universe, Diggs is tackled and the game ends there. In almost every other parallel universe, pass interference gets called, the Saints take a knee on four downs and win the game and go back to the Super Bowl which doesn’t end up being a snooze fest. Just sucks man.
@PrisonMike117go birds
Man, I know why Joe Buck gets some heat for how he calls games sometimes, but you CAN'T ARGUE how PERFECT he was on the Minneapolis Miracle
Exactly. I hate the way he calls the games, but that was (alongside the Vikings Radio Broadcast) beautifully called because they let their emotions and disbelief out
@@BlackDawn626 The best thing about that miracle is the fact that they needed a miracle just so that they could go get slaughtered the next week. Pathetic.

At 9:49 that announcer was clearly a Saints fan. That was sheer pain in his voice. Lol
Looking back at "The Fail Mary" Jennings 100% caught that ball, he easily had possention on said ball
You're absolutely right. I'll add -- and I say this as a Steelers fan, so I'm not about to give the Raiders anything -- the Raiders got screwed by that tuck rule call. Brady had totally brought the ball back after a pump fake.

4:50 I watched that live with my grandfather, who was still a Packers fan despite having moved from Wisconsin to Colorado around 1950. He was pissed about that call until the day he died, and I still am.
12:51 My Dad was in London on business for that Super Bowl. When he called home a few days later I described the game and that play... and he said that the only SB photo in the London papers was of that final stretch.
22:50 First Super Bowl I remember watching. I was in daycare at the time and, even though we were in Minnesota they served us blue and green jello shaped like football helmets. No idea why.
24:50 That was an evening game and I had to go to bed before the end of it. Mom had to break it to me the next morning.
Yeah, the packers guy definitely catches the ball, the seahawks guy only has the packers guy's arm. I don't know what the refs were thinking.
@@yaldabaoth2 If both players catch the ball, they give it too the offense by rule, i guess the ref thought they both caught it and gave it to Seattle even though it was clearly caught by the Packers
Need to look at all the angles. There was a great picture in the Seattle papers the next day, taken from behind the end zone, showing the Seahawk’s receivers left hand firmly clutching the ball, between the ball and the defender’s chest. He had possession with that hand and never let go. Simultaneous catch goes to the offense.
Was it from a camera that was available to the refs?
Don’t forget the refs decided not to call Tate pushing Sam Shields (Packers CB) causing Offensive PI. That game sent the NFL into uproar, and they admitted it was an interception, giving GB the very elated win
The River City Relay somehow managed to be one of the most triumphant and one of the saddest moments in Saints history. How could he do that, indeed?
Yeah, that tracks for the Saints. Can't win for losing.
Thank you, NFL Throwback! This is one of the greatest videos ever put together. I can't even imagine the time it took to collect every single one of these individual videos and put them all together into one beautiful video. The memories of them all is almost overwhelming.
If there was a Pulitzer Prize for short film clips…whoever captured the front shot of Franco Harris(R.I.P)making that reception would have got it for that year…such an iconic clip…
Im going to be a hater and say that shot sucked. No definitive evidence. Only famous because of the play. Only known because of how tantalizingly close it is to being the shot we needed but isn’t.
It was shot by Ernie Ernst, a highly regarded cameraman from NFL Films.

I’m glad the “pick at the stick” was on here. That’s when I was the most die hard watching every second of every Niner game. That was the last game ever at Candlestick. Seemed like the Niners were about to choke because the Falcons were just making their way downfield at will. And for Navarro Bowman to take it all the way back was a perfect ending for an amazing stadium
I still think it should be criminal that they tore it down. I refuse to believe that they couldn't have renovated it to be a gem like Lambeau, Wrigley, or Fenway.
What's forgotten about the Beast Quake run is that the Seahawks were in the playoffs with a 7-9 record
Well, I can't speak for everyone, but I remembered that fact. For me their record being what it was takes this play to a higher level.
And the Saints were the defending SB champs. Did my heart good to watch them lose.
At the time, they were the only team in NFL history to make the playoffs with a losing record
@@berserkleySo did the 2020 Washington Football Team
Thank nfl throwback for digging up all these videos and putting them together for us to enjoy
9:46 the announcer was DEVASTATED!! 🤣🤣🤣
One of the plays missed that I will always remember is "The Immaculate Deflection" or "The Tip" when Richard Sherman tipped a pass to Malcolm Smith for a game sealing touchdown that sent the Hawks to the Super Bowl
YES
"The Catch 2" will always be the most memorable for me! Steve Young to Owens!! I remember that play, and will forever!
And "The Catch 3" was also a highlight for me!!
49ERS RULE!!
During the third Miracle at the Meadowlands, you can see the Giants coach furiously throwing his play sheets to the ground as Jackson runs on by.
awesome play by Franco Harris
RIP The legend
I feel like Kyler gets so much credit for The Hail Murray. He did a great job getting out of pressure and making that heave but Hopkins made that play what it was. Four defenders and he caught that over all of them. DHop deserves more credit for that one. Call it the the “Hop Mary” lol
I always felt that the QB gets too much credit for successful Hail Marys. The QB is tossing it up there hoping for a miracle. The receiver really is the one who’s making the play happen being able to come down with an “anyone’s ball” kind of catch.
@@chitalian22true but the QB does deserve credit. Murray threw a perfect ball on the run. Same with Rodgers on his two Hail Mary’s. Two unbelievably perfect throws.
I’ll never forget the Philly special. I had to work that night, but being just outside Philly, not a damn lick of work was done in those final minutes of the game.
That was a great time in Philly. No one arguing, no one fighting, just a lot of high fives, and a lot of happy tears.
Philly-Philly will never cease to give me goosebumps. Such an amazing play and the balls to pull out something like that in the Super Bowl of all places was incredible. I was so freaking happy when we won that SB because I always felt bad for Foles after that cheap shot he took. For him to come back to Philadelphia and help us win a SB was poetic justice. They might be on different teams and might not be as successful as they used to be, but I'll always cherish and be thankful for that fantastic season where Wentz and Foles got us our first ever Super Bowl.
Going back and watching there Super Bowl run gives me so much nostalgia mainly the double doink
Just checking to see that Marc Sessler has got his sandwich.
@PrisonMike117no, double doink was the wild card game that got us into the NFC game in 2018
It was a pleasure watching that live, one of my favorites on here. The best part was Brady bricking a pass earlier in the game and then Foles just dunked on him.
Matt Stafford and Golden Tate made that same play on a two point conversion at the end of that regular season for the Lions just a few weeks prior.
the double doink was actually tipped by somebody as it was kicked. definitely could have been a reason it doinkied but the double doink is absolutely wild. he went on to doink like 3 more kicks lol
"He DID WHAT?" "You couldn't film that scene in a movie and make it look that good"
I've always loved that call
The announcer calling out Gronk before the play. Brutal.
Was there live betting back then? Coulda been a millionaire
Foles calling his own number is crazy. Love that.
08:29 I clearly remember that FG attempt.
That was the beginning of the term "Icing" created by Bill Parcells.
Right before that kick, he called time out to stress the hell out of the kicker, and it worked.
Then began the term "icing".
the butt fumble makes me laugh every single time no matter what. i don't think it will ever stop being funny
The bear 🐻 collapsing 😂 7:53
The Immaculate Extension? I know Antonio Brown isn't really what the NFL wants to talk about right now, but the play still deserves to be on a video called "EVERY Play with a Nickname!"
I’ll remember the Minneapolis miracle for the rest of my life. Goosebumps every time I watch it. Sad what happened the game after though, we won’t talk about that
Crazy how the Vikings are featured in like half of the plays in this viceo
I still don't understand why we changed quarterbacks after the season was over. I'm sure we wouldn't have done any better with Keenum, but we should have given him a chance.
man i remember that play lol i went to sleep early didn't watch the game wake up next day didn't know who won watching highlights see the play happen and the field position of the defender before the ball lands and say ah cool Saints win it then ....... what i call the worst tackling attempt in NFL History that shit happens and I'm like WHAT THE WHAT
even i could have made a better tackle then that holy fuck
The Philly flop 38-7 😂😂
@@squirrelydan3 because we traded a 1st round pick for Bradford, and you can't afford that on the bench. Plus Keenum got paid handsomely to fight for a starting job in Denver. Even if we wanted him to stay, he wouldn't start or get paid like he did.
2 thumbs up for the production teams on all the highlights I've ever seen. The commentary, the camerawork, and those working behind the scenes helping out their crew to give us viewers the feel and the emotions of NFL. 2 thumbs up, just Brilliant!
I'm from New Zealand so I don't know your countries history in rivalry's in College and the NFL, but I love it and respect the passionate banter. Keep it up NFL, killer!
Not even a niners fan but catches 2 and 3 had a lot of meaning to it. Before TO was TO he had like 2 3 drops that game before the winning catch. And Vernon Davis’s last coach didnt believe in him before that season. So it was awesome to see them overcome adversity within themselves
You are wrong to say that Mike Singletary didn’t believe in Vernon Davis. Davis himself credits Singletary’s rant as the moment that changed everything for him
@@Joe-zq4ex facts
True but it doesn't compare to the original after numerous tough losses to the Cowboys in the past they finally beat them when it mattered the 49ers would go on to win their first superbowl after that magical play
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 oh i see
I remember listening to Bill Burr's podcast while he was watching the Minneapolis Miracle live. His excitement does not disappoint
@18:57 Nothing out shines the Holy Roller and the call on the play has to be the #1 announcer call in NFL history. And throw in the Chicken for good measure. He was absolute hilarious.
Best one: "THERE ARE NO FLAGS ON THE FIELD! IT'S A MIRACLE!!"
We all know Seattle didn’t catch that “fail Mary” 💀😭🤣
I'm not even a Packers fan, and you can see that he loses the ball at one point before going to the ground. If he failed to maintain possession, it isn't a catch. Therefore, no TD. The Packers were robbed. I could see that all the way down here in DFW where the rivalry between us is huge, so you know I like the Seahawks even less. That call still upsets me whenever I see the clip. It shouldn't have been called a TD either way, because at no point did he ever have full possession or control of the ball while going to the ground, and if they're not sure, then it should have been ruled incomplete. I think the Packers had just as much control/possession of the ball as the Seahawks did - moreso, if you watch the part just before they both go to the ground. Especially in slow motion.
Cry about it bro we even went to the sb that year
You still would've failed in the sb if they didn't count it
Read justice scalia's opinion. Pro ball is entertainment, no obligation to provide a fair game. Follow the money
@@jenx5870 They both had possesion when the Seahawk's foot hit the ground, by rule it goes to the offense as a tie breaker. The rule may seem dumb but that's how it goes.
Man....I still get goosebumps when I watch the Music City Miracle. I remember it like it was yesterday when Mike Keith yelled "There are NO FLAGS ON THE FIELD". I had a feeling something big was going to happen.....and it definitely did. But I had to laugh when they showed the one yard short right after 😅
And in between those games, the Titans came to Indy and ran up and down the field against my Colts!! Funny that instant replay was put back in that year so they could actually review the lateral and see it was correct
Yea i used to think it was a forward pass til i looked where the ball was instead of the player, where the ball is is what counts and it went back about 2 inches...it was indeed a lateral
How can it possibly be 25 years since the Music City Miracle?
A lot of these have “Miracle” in the name, butt Mark Sanchez is honored having the most unique name of them all 😂
Yeah, should've called it the Gluteus Miraculous.
@@Concatenate lol. Oh that’s good.
"butt Mark Sanchez". Pure comedy.
No play registers the shock value, of the Immaculate Reception.
Ive never seen a crowd, and a team go that crazy.
No one would know how to act, because it was an absolute miracle.
The miracle of miracles.
That's why its the greatest play ever, and its not even close.
I think I remember hearing on a documentary that it took 15 minutes to clear the crowd from the field so the PAT attempt could be done.
As a lifelong Eagles fan, I never knew there were 3 "Miracle at the Meadowlands" I thought Jackson's punt return was number 2. So did Mike Quick when he was calling the play right here @ 15:04. Except it was edited for this video, He actually said "This is the Miracle at the Meadowlands number two".
What I like about the second one is that it's the kicker and holder that are the only two lead blockers for that TD. Heads up play by them to immediately take off after the block.
As a Giants fan, I remembered two. Which is enough. (Dear lord, your guys just own mine, don't they?)
They forgot Brian Westbrook’s punt return, too
As a Eagles fan, the philly special will always feel so good watching 15:09
13:28 - of all the great players I could have chosen when deciding on an Eagles jersey, I chose Herm Edwards and this moment. (Doesn't hurt that he's a pretty awesome dude outside of football as well.)
Well, “you play to win the game.”
2:30 -- classic Patriots bandwagon fan celebrating the Miami Miracle. His fanhood changed mid play, I guess!
Yea i had to watch that again. lol
4:50 I've also heard that called The Immaculate Deception. I also like to say the Packers were Swindled In Seattle.
"The Catch II" should also be called "Screwed in San Francisco" as Jerry Rice clearly fumbled the play before. It's the play the NFL wants you to forget and it lead to the implementation of instant replay the next season.
“The Fail Mary” was a pick on every camera angle😂
Oh yea that shit was just ridiculous how the seahawks got away with that
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 there was no one getting away with anything the refs were just trash 😂
Yes the very last officiated scab game on MNF
So obviously wrong. Also insane the camera umpires couldnt reverse it
I'm HaPpY tHe SeAhAwKs GoT aWaY wiTh It
Haters say he did not catch it. Real ones remember the legacy of Franco Harris.
RIP Franco Harris
There are so many angles that show he made a good catch. It's clear as day that it's nowhere near the ground, so I don't know how there can even be a controversy on that point anymore. Even the Tatum vs Fuqua thing has multiple angles, that with our modern ability to play it in slo mo, we see it hit Tatum before Fuqua gets there. It's a good catch, the TD stands. The refs all deny that they feared for their safety. Bradshaw and the rest of them are just messing with people, because they know that the controversy of the legacy gets people talking, and that brings more butts in the seat for the 50th anniversary. They don't want the controversy to stop, because it isn't in their interest. Poor Franco was being honest by saying it was a blur, because something like that is going to be a blur - you have tunnel vision at that point. I respect him for not just making something up, because it would have been so easy for him to say he suddenly remembered that the ball never touched the ground - just like all videos show. I do think it's sad that Fuqua and Bradshaw have kind of thrown Harris under the bus a bit just to keep the buzz about the Immaculate Reception going. Bradshaw knows darn well there was daylight under that ball, and his hands were nowhere near the ground when he caught the ball. He may not have known on game day, but he's seen the highlight reels, and he knows it now. May Mr. Harris RIP.
