NFL Top Ten Plays of the Past 25 Years

[AsTimeDilates]

They'll have to edit this to add Eli's pass to Manningham from this year.

[lionel19651]

the bills are such loser...could not punt the ball in the end zone no no no add to spot them 35-free-yards..and deshean jackson proving that he s an imbecil even when makin a huge play!

[coldplayandoasis]

#2 should be #1 , oh and, #1 had a illegal forward pass and was a boring common play, the #2 was the most important drive for the Giants to win the Superbowl against the perfect patriots, you tell me which one is more important...

[mishhhstaMark]

@coldplayandoasis u sir are retarded. bills kick it off tothe titans with 16 seconds left and theyscore the game winning touchdown. # 2 shouldnt even have been in the top 10. but i think # 4 should be # 1

[coldplayandoasis]

#2 eli to tyree "we still don't know how these happened" lol I think exactly the same

[IGoProne]

No immaculate reception?

[sweetsap91]

@IGoProne that was like 40 years ago

[YesYou123333]

Wade Phillips at the end is like, "WTF?"

[trampolinetricksguys]

Awesome video!

[Inyourfacebucko]

@1:00 FUS RO DAH

[MegaGaming4you]

@Inyourfacebucko

LOL thats a weak FUS RO DAH

[tonoklein]

I didn't know Newt Gingrich coached the Bills.

[lfranklin27]

music city miracle was illegal... forward lateral

[dodgingdaniel]

Music city miracle is the most bullshit play of all time, David Tyree is number 1

[bigmommasback]

2:45

and then " WHEEP "

[SeanandHarrison123]

giants should had got number one wit david tyree catch......the last one wasn't that AMAZING the giants play was AMAZING he caught it on his head with one hand with a man pulling on him then he hits the floor hard but still has it on his head thats AMAZING and is it even possible?!?!?!

[MrCall52]

how was marshawn lynch #8!!!??



[IHATEPRUANE2FOREVER1]

Although the Bills game up there pissed me off to no end, at least they were competitive...

[titans091052]

@IHATEPRUANE2FOREVER1 Don't put your faith in the Bills. I'm an atheist but the Bills ability to throw away games in the most miraculous ways ever makes me think that maybe their is a god who hates the Bills...a lot.

[Flurbskating]

thumbs up is you think Favre's pass to Harvin for the game winner should have been in this

[Patsbrady0345]

@Flurbskating yes agree

[soldierof239]

Ummm, where's "The Catch"?

[espndude4865]

@soldierof239 its the past 25 years do the math and you'll see 1986 was 25 years ago the catch was in 1982

[steelers88765]

STEELERS!!!!!

[mrnumber90]

The last play fwd lateral? Anyone???

[dothedamnthang2]

@mrnumber90 yes yes, foward lateral

[Endl3ssorrow]

4:30 foward lateral?

[oieask8]

2:28 EPIC FAIL!

[mullyandtomoko]

Too soon for Simpson's flip to make it.

[jguy90]

Giants play should be number 1!

[Mshoon89]

HOLD MY NUTS!

[UmbrellaAssassin01]

Looks like a block in the back by number 83 at around 2:51.

[dash132]

That pick 6 by Harrison was super clutch. I wanted the Steelers to lose that game so bad lol

[yungbrizzle10]

1:05 HOLD MAH DIIIIIIICCCCCCCKKKKKK!!!!!

[catfrycat]

Thats right. Fuck the giants

[mcnallyrd3]

@catfrycat fuck the pats

[catfrycat]

@mcnallyrd3 last time i checked the pats went 13-3 ang the giants went 9-7 and only won bc of gronks injury, bill o brian is dumb, and the safety in the first quarter

[neromite]

i died laughing at number nine

[8USMNT17]

This is a terrible list.

[vaporcentre]

What about the saints onside kick at the beggining of the half in Super Bowl XLIV or reggie bush's flying touchdown?...i mean i know the plays weren't phenominal in themselves, but they lead to a victory for city that had been devastated by a hurricane, and the recovery from which became a huge aspect of the team...

[mcnallyrd3]

@vaporcentre you realize thats the only reason they on the super bowl right? the league wanted NO to win. the vikings beat the crap out of NO in the conference game. i dont doubt what happened to NO was traggic, cause it was, but thats no reason to just give a team the championship.

[vaporcentre]

@mcnallyrd3 Are you kidding me? Do you know how the NFL works? Let me recap the conference finals for you. Last few minutes of the game, Brett Favre throws an INT and the saints go on to win the game. They go to the Super Bowl and beat the Colts. The league doesn't "give" a championship to a team. Learn what sports are before you start assuming irrelevant crap and bringing up conspiracy theories about the league. They won fair and square. Deal with it.

[metathus1488]

@mcnallyrd3 For sure. The NFL knew they could cash in on the whole healing of new orleans after katrina bullshit. Boo fucking hoo. Dont build a city below sea level you dumbasses.

[burtonkid1991]

@metathus1488 Choke on a dick d00d! Did George Bush pull off 9/11 too conspiracy brotha? Take your ignorance back to your white trash shanty town n cook some meth

[metathus1488]

@burtonkid1991 Go back to africa and rot nigger

[burtonkid1991]

@metathus1488 Im White you dumb fuck. Hitler was a pussy! Idk why you wanna honor someone who Killed himself like a punk bitch. CHOKE ON A BIG BLACK COCK you racist fuck. Do the world a favor n slit your throught you wanabee skin head!

[burtonkid1991]

@mcnallyrd3 God damn Obama made NO win right? Wheres your parents at?! If i could go back in time id push your skinhead mom down the stairs when she was pregnant with your arrogant ass.. the world would be a better place

[mcnallyrd3]

@burtonkid1991 what in the blue hell does obama have to do with what happened 4 years ago lol, and you call me a dumbass hahahahahahahahahahaha and believe me if i could go back in time i would stop my parents from ever conceiving me.

[burtonkid1991]

@mcnallyrd3 hahahaha it was a joke cause your dumb ass thinks NO won the superbowl on a scam! you really are dumb fucking bastard.. just kill yourself dont need to wait for time traveling technology

[AdamZaccaria]

The only miracle in Music City was the fact that all 127 referees missed the obvious forward lateral. Are you serious???

[vinnytgj0129]

#1 i think that should've been called back for forward latteral

[PolishGing006]

Look, im a big seahawks fan, and since im from arizona, i have double hate towards the squealers. james harrison is fat and didnt make it. and for holmes, just, no. and who else has broken at least 9 tackles AND ran for a 45 yd td? not too many people. FEED THE BEAST!

[FrostytheFloman23]

james harrison shouldn;t of made it, just because it was the superbowl

[aata1998]

Wheres jags vs texans last second td when dumbass quin spikes it and thomas catches it

[pat83riot]

Chris Berman & Thomas Jackson bread down the Top Ten Plays of the past 25 Years

[captainbcharles]

im sorry but i dont think number 1 should be number 1, holmes and tyrees catches were both a lot better and entertaining in my opinion

[sillyperson26]

press 6

[Sidsational123]

Number 3 was supposed to be number 1. No one could even catch him. HE was a LINEBACKER and he made it. Steelers FTW.

[dkkoover]

0:42

what?

[iOnlyGrowDro]

wheres devin hesters superbowl touchdown!?!?!?!?

[Ajf81096]

Where is Brady's Superbowl 36 Final Game winning drive.

[hello47sandwich]

keep pressing 6...

[MrGreenPoop1000]

This is way better than that soccer football they do over in Europe.

[bhboehlert]

David Tyree!! Pride of Montclair NJ!!!

[bigace511]

steve youngs a runningback!?

[cremer95]

0:37 FOR THE PATRIOTS TO TIE AND THEN BEAT THE ERRERES

[seaseansean]

Chris Bermen should make vocal dubstep.

[livin4him100]

every recent superbowl has an INCREDIBLE catch/play. tyree, holmes, porter, now manningham

[joeyhaleissexy1]

well .. them missing tackles looks like our eighth grade team this year .. D:

[krisman1000]

WHOOP AN THEN WHOOP AN HE THROW IT TO WHOOP LMAO

[Scar9901]

David Tyree for the win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aWeirdCreeperGuy]

Those were fun to watch, I think.

[63CelticsFan]

How About that block at 1:27?? dang

[armybratt456]

#4 should have been #1

[MrSamDaMan78]

number 8 should be number 1

[TheGamingFusions]

#3 Steelers!

[titleloanman]

That Titans Super Bowl run the year that #1 happened had more than a few plays that could have cracked this list, namely that last second tackle in the Super Bowl.

[baltraven81]

Best play ever- ed reed 107 yard pick six

[shcoome]

@baltraven81 no, just no.

[ionn513]

i was born on the same day as Cunningham 

[Jyrow]

#4 was the best... :D

[TheCzure]

How is the famous Cal win over Stanford with all of the laterals to win with 1 second on the clock????!!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[superpanther44]

@TheCzure These are NFL plays

[KRUKnKUIPpwnSCULLY]

Top 10 plays of the last 25 Years with no Immaculate Reception, Montana to Clark, or even the David Garrard Hail Mary? could of been better..

[eg6cvchatch]

NO ONES BETTER THAN CHRIS BERMEN!!! BEST EVER!

[bgdddyweave77]

@eg6cvchatch Unless you count literally every other sports announcer...

[dominatorfla]

no.... Ray Lewis running up the middle on a 4th down against chargers to win the game is def supposed to be on this list...

[MrRainbowunicornz]

90,000th view. holla



[prozac70]

With all of the amazing plays over the last 25 years, did they really just include a blocked punt, punt return, and field goal in the top 10? Granted, they were in key situations, but were really just routine plays. Much better selections could've been made.

[TheScott9988]

look at the toes.......lol

[hwilliams365]

In case you love sound effects:

2:50

2:55

2:58

[birdybird001]

If you really like sound effects, hit 6.



[5LaxGoalie]

0:40 - "To tie then beat theeeeeyyyyyyaaaasssss

[JustForMN]

Way too many modern era plays in this list.

[nobledb1023]

4:45 That's what she said.

[nobledb1023]

Number 4 was followed by possibly the worst play in the past 25 years - John Carney missing the XP that would've given the Saints a chance at the playoffs.

[football24101]

That last play was obviously a forward pass.

[dbroncos090]

@football24101 it's been analyzed like a thousand times, watch it from a different angle, it was 100% a backwards (lateral) aka legal pass in open field. Unquestionable, it just wasn't shown from a good anglwe here...

[themilliondollararm]

@football24101 for the last time it was a lateral its been provin!!!

[samk418]

@football24101 looks like someone needs their eyes checked

[Negromoses]

@football24101 Someone doesn't know the rules of football.

[xxxnickrhxxx]

@Negromoses You?

[illskill3]

@football24101 no it wasnt

[ThunderPower]

@football24101 How can you call it a forward pass? I see, 100%, a lateral pass.

[keviz2kul4u]

@ThunderPower please stop trolling

[ThunderPower]

@keviz2kul4u It was proven to be a lateral and there's even a non-computerized video angle that shows it. I'm not trolling.

[keviz2kul4u]

@ThunderPower seriously man, you dont need to keep it up, we get it, trolls are funny

[ThunderPower]

@keviz2kul4u Herp derp.

[keviz2kul4u]

@ThunderPower you are really sticking to it. i mean, trying to say that it wasnt a forward pass when they were on opposite sides of the line, yeah, thats some good trolling.

[ThunderPower]

@keviz2kul4u I know, right?

[keviz2kul4u]

@ThunderPower ...well played...

[MatthewWHP]

@keviz2kul4u

Look at his right foot when he makes the catch

[MatthewWHP]

@keviz2kul4u & @ football24101

Pause it when the pass is thrown, his right foot is on the 25Yd Line,

Pause it when the catch is made, his right foot is just behind the 25Yd Line, definitely a lateral throw, it is the angle of the camera that makes it look like a forward pass.

[tanuvasa]

@MatthewWHP I seen this on a documentary. good point

[RedContingency]

@football24101 He caught it at the same line that the guy threw it.

[bhboehlert]

@football24101 Look at the slow-mo replay

[BIGxWILLxXx638]

@football24101 Everybody listen I thought it was a forward pass too but about a week later I found a video called "A music city miracle (including proof of a nonforward pass)". Look that video up its about 1:40 long. I HATE to do this but please thumb this comment up! Thanks!

[MrMontiago]

@football24101 with no updated rules in 1999 nothing you can do without a challenge

[Hitokiri88888]

@football24101 lol no it wasnt how is it a forward pass when the ball went back lol?

[39120c]

@football24101 no it wasn't and if you still believe that then you are an idiot.

[THEoBANANAoBIRD]

@football24101 it was challenged and it looked like it was going foward but it was a lateral

[flyingmules911]

@football24101 only from that angle

[makemenerdy91]

@football24101 no, if you look at where he threw the ball. then look at where he caught the ball(not where he was standing before and during the lateral) then it would be on a slight backwards angle, barely.but enough

[VeneRican1]

@football24101 /watch?v=wPhONc6xC48

[silverjet222]

David tyree had stickems on his gloves and now thts y u can't have em

[TheMikerandazzo]

Illegal forward pass on the "#1" video. Therefore Eli "Elite" Manning and David Tyree's connection is the greatest super bowl play of all time. #Super Bowl Champs again!

[PiedASP]

@TheMikerandazzo It's the best play anyway. This list is stupid.

Catch 42 is the best play in the entire history of the NFL, period.

[Sidsational123]

@TheMikerandazzo Nahh, it was HOLMES.

[pikachu2914]

desean jackson was completely lucky

[soccerlover1598]

@pikachu2914 lucky that it was bad punt and the giants special teams sucked at covering? or was it lucky that the giants completely forgot how to play football in the last 7 minutes of that game. congrats to the giants this year for being the overhyped patriots, but there was nothing lucky about that game. the giants just completely broke down and the eagles took advantage.

[adam2081]

No immaculate reception?

[ecwfaithful]

@adam2081 I'm pissed that they added the Snow Job as part of the list.

[mrrusss]

Can't believe ESPN, (especially that moron Berman), gave credit to the Steelers. SB 43 was a great game. Better than 42, but I'm still glad the Pats went 18-1. And I'm sorry, but if you look at the 25 yard line, the ball is behind it when it's thrown and slightly in front of it when it's caught. That's clear and it's not even the best angle to see it.

[ViperWizz]

YEAH Desean!!

[HyperNationS]

ya ohnestly the one where its scrambled then chucked it or the saints one should have been in top two

[MadeNAmerica1997]

#1 was a huge forward lateral. 10 yard pass

[andrewperez74]

best 4:48 of my life

[zman1234567890100]

#1 should've been #10 that was no good  :(

[metalrulez4evr]

Number 1 was proven later to be a forward pass, not a lateral. Bills got fucked that game. Again.

[dbjkatz]

@metalrulez4evr

It was a lateral; otherwise it would have been overturned after further review. This happened 12 years ago. Apparently the Bills haven't gotten over it yet.

[sonic99999101]

people run faster when in crisis situations



[SoulHeadProduction]

| No Brett Farve to Greg Williams in the 09 - 10 season of week 3?! WOW!

[SoulHeadProduction]

@SoulHeadProduction | Greg Lewis 

[ou15reyes]

umm. last 25 years? just make it the last 10 years and find 3 more plays, thanks.

[Raisinbrain1337]

There are no, flags, on the field! Tennessee, has pulled a miracle!!!

[Raisinbrain1337]

0:48

BEAST MODE!

[hakaddish]

is it valid to pass forward while receiving kickoffs?????

[DEXTER101117]

@hakaddish no

forward latteral

[warholatyler]

hahahahahah "to tie and beat hheeeeaaaaaaaaiiisss"

[TheSouthpark899]

#8: HOLD MY DICK!!

[RCA1186]

even though it was a clear forward pass

[MTCTYjthennis]

MARSHAWN LYNCH

[LTheDetective3]

the cardinals - steelers superbowl is very underrated in my opinion.

[pbachris16]

RIP McNair

[tainanherb]

Having said that, Jared Odrick's Pee Wee Herman sack dance should be #1.

[tainanherb]

Mediocre #1? Are you kidding? I guess you didn't see that live, 'cuz that was the shocker of all shockers.

[Drpatrick777]

If you look closely at #1 he puts effort in to catch the ball behind where it was thrown.

[jake77k]

niners ftw

[spaceusagi]

No Barry Sanders?

[LittleBigAsian]

Number 4 ! AMAZING!

[CoryStumpf]

#1 ... srs?

[Jaxn2Legit]

although i am a RAVENS fan, i gotta say the steelers superbowl td catch by Holmes is one of the greatest catches i've ever seen

[iBeK00L]

adam vinitary went to my school  go adam

[matmanburnz]

this list is messed up

[JCbanks71]

when play #1 happened, was there replay in the NFL? clearly it was a forward pass...bills haven't been the same since that game

[NEDhardly84]

@JCbanks71 Yes it was reviewed and deemed a lateral. They have done several specials about this particular play. It is way to close of a play to overturn IMO.

@JCbanks71 There was replay but it wasn't a forward pass. It's not about where the players are on the field. It's from wh
