This needs to be in "Dolphins Discussion"...there are several other plays that I would consider the "Greatest Play Ever". Because, that is a matter of opinion (right?).
When I think of the "Greatest Play Ever", i'd like to throw some Giants in the mix:
1. Mark Bavaro dragging Ronnie Lott for 20 yards (We won that game)
2. Mark Ingram on 3rd and 13 in the Super Bowl, breaking 87 tackles and stretching out to get that 13th yard (we won that game, too)
3. How about "THE" play in Super Bowl 42 with David Tyree's catch?
Non-Giants:
1. The "Catch" - Joe Montana to dwight clark in the NFC Title Game in 1981
2. The "Catch" 2 - Steve Young to Terrel Owens to beat the packers in the divisional playoff game in like 98 or 99.
3. The "Immaculate Reception" - Pittsburgh vs. Oakland in the 1974 (or so) playoffs
4. "Running into the night" - Marcus Allen's 80 yard TD run in the Super Bowl vs. Washington in 1983
5. "The Drive" - Joe Montana drives 92 yards, and finds John taylor for a 10-yard TD pass to win Super Bowl 23 vs. Cincinnati
6. "The Tackle" - Rams stop the Titans on the last second on the one-yard line to win Super Bowl 34
7. Music City Miracle - A backwards toss in the last second on a kickoff return by the Titans, vs. the Bills, in the playoffs in 1999 i believe it was
Notice, most of the "greatest plays' either involve the super bowl, or a huge game, where the team won. None of this "hook-and ladder but we still lost" shit.
If Homer Simpson was as big a homer as you the writers would have to rename him jtex.
