Marcus Allen's 74 yard TD run in Super Bowl XVIII: http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-super-bow ... rcus-Allen I had the winning SB squares numbers before this run on the last play of the 3rd quarter. And I'm a Raider fan. Talk about conflicted! |

Allen's run was great. But the combination of eluding the sack, making an amazing throw and just as amazing catch makes the Giants play the clear cut winner of the greatest play in Superbowl history. |

C'mon man! Some of these plays aren't even scoring TD's... I will go with James Harrison going 100 yards on the pick six INT a few years ago. It was right before halftime of SuperBowl XLIII Steelers v. Cardinals. Bonus was at the end when Harrison lands on top of Laurence Fitzgerald at the goal line instead of being down at the 1 for the TD. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEIyUBf0X8E GAME OVER! |

How about Elway's play against the Packers when he needed a first down and did the helicopter. |

I really loved the hope it gave me when Hester ran that opening kickoff back. Maybe not the greatest but for me it was wow. |

Can I change my answer? Porter clinching SB XLV for the Saints is the correct response. |

Why did the Colts make the playoffs after losing their coach for much of the year, whereas your Saints used the absence of their coach as an excuse on why they couldn't win? |

The AFC blew & the playoff berth was relatively meaningless. It was a shit conference for the bottom 13 teams, and especially for that division (incl. the Great Texans ) In short, who cared?!? (And btw, the Saints lost their chief play caller & motivator, the defense was turned upside down and their QB missed all of the preseason & didn't get into rhythm under week 5)B. To channel my inner Bernstein, neither team got close to a title, so this was a meh year at best, at worst (apparently for you) just another reminder that the Colts got punished by my Saints not too long ago (and that Cleatus gave up the booty again when it mattered)

But that's where Bernstein sounds ridiculous. If you think this season was the exact same for a Colts fan and a Saints fan(or anyone besides Baltimore), what the fuck fun is it to even follow sports? If I'm a Colts fan I loved this season. If I'm a Saints fan next season can't come fast enough. It sounds patently silly to think they should have the same effect on a fandom because they didn't win the title. |
