2. Where does it rank in all sports?

Trying not to be a prisoner of the moment but I can't think of a more stunning ending in an NFL playoff game ever

It's probably right up there with the music city miracle, but I'd still have to place it behind the Immaculate reception.

Reminds me of the Green Bay hail Mary against the Lions a couple of years ago.

It reminded me of the mile high miracle because if the DBs would have just not let their man get behind them and tackle them in bounds the game would be over. I think that makes it even more of a miracle than a Hail Mary because the odds of a receiver running 50 yards with it after the catch have got to be even slimmer than a Hail Mary in the end zone. We have seen Hail Marys before, and they are rare, but we rarely see walk off or game timing TDs at the end of regulation where the ball carrier is running 50+ yards. I have no idea what that DB was thinking. Just make a simple tackle in bounds and the game is over.

It's still behind the Immaculate Reception, although if the Vikings become a dynasty like Pitt, it could tie it.

The stupid Seahawks throwing the pick was pretty stunning. Music City Miracle.


Seahawks was the most stunning play call of all the time in any sport. And it will never be topped. The result is not so surprising given the call

this seattle one was pretty bad i think..it being in the sb, down to last seconds but seattle had a timeout i think and also prob enough time for a couple plays. Add to the fact I had seattle that game..it was struck me emotionally. yesterday i had minny -3.5 after buying down 1.5 points and i was going crazy but i remember after that seattle game, that play kept going over in my head.

Too many crazy finishes & miracles to list, but this was like Bill Buckner having the ball go thru his legs which cost Boston the world series.
