My heart tells me it was Edelman's catch at midfield during the 28-3 comeback.
My mind tells me it was the Music City Miracle.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
One of many...

The immaculate reception is a good one
"I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
Elway's run in the 1998 Superbowl where he was hit and helicoptered to a first down to put the game away.
I've got a 1a & 1b. My first would be Vinatieri's kick to beat the Rams for the SB win, watched with my old man. Then Malcolm Butler picking off Russell Wilson for another SB win which had my son and I jumping around screaming like little girls.
Good times. 😉👍

The Butler play really sticks out to me. it was a rollercoaster of emotions. I remember the long pass that was juggled on the sideline and caught just outside the end zone. feeling like it was 2007 or 2011 all over again, being so sure they were just going to run it in and win the game. total dejection. then butler jumps the route and picks off that pass. it may have been the single best vertical leap ever in my life!
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
That was Jermaine Kearse who made that Edelman/Falcons-like catch. Then on the very next play, Dont'a Hightower tripped up Beast Mode around the 3-4yd line then Akeem Ayers then dragged him down from behind just inside the one. That play was just as huge as Butler's pick,IMO.

One of mine would be Damien Williams last TD for KC in the SB win over the Niners. I was hoping they would pick up a first down and run out the clock but he broke free and scored. He should have been the MVP.
A play that is bittersweet for me is one where Tyreek Hill caught a TD pass for KC in a regular season game and the refs call was that it hit the ground. I’m screaming at the TV for the Chiefs to review it because I didn’t see it hit the ground and brain dead Andy Reid quickly calls the next play. Never showing a bit of interest in a possible review. I was so pissed. Hill actually lost sight of the ball as he caught it so I don’t blame him but the chief coach who is in charge of reviews is an idiot.
Best TD catch ever that didn’t count. I described it once and DD posted a video.
The Catch!!
though sometimes for me... it may not be my favorite play...It's My Favorite Execution Of The Play...
Bob Griese's spin move...
Joe Greene stunting over the Vikings line...
Perfect Execution...
I had to do an Edit here for a few more...
My second favorite play of all-time.
Dont you dare @stevek...
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
we had Thanksgiving dinner by my aunt & uncles that day...
No love for the hook & lateral by Miami?

hey Tabe...I's got ya covered on that one...
Watching the defender hopelessly attempt to stop the fridge.
Walter Payton's run against the Chiefs in 1977. It epitomized what Payton was all about. He could fake defenders out, and he could lower his head and run them over like a Mack truck.

@grote15 I see what you did there. now i need to take a weeklong darkness retreat to cleanse my eyeballs...
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
Vaguely remember that one live...
Over the Immaculate Reception?
Immaculate reception.
Terry Bradshaw was AMAZING!!

Childhood memory...Thanksgiving 1980. Dave Williams' 95 yard kickoff return in OT, Bears beat Lions 23-17.
I remember leaping from the dinner table toward the TV when he broke free.
Having issues posting the video, but here is a pic.
Me too. He was a joy to watch.
hey Chicago1976....
Oh 4 Sure...That was a Great Return...
I know there's a few vid's of Dave's return on YT, though I was trying to find a GIF on that return and No Luck so far...
hey craig44
I's got ya covered on that one...
@GroceryRackPack yes sir, thats the one!!! there havent been too many that could sling it as good as Danny
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
It’s no doubt a more impactful and important play, but I wasn’t old enough to care about football and to remember it
. Lynn Swann was my favorite player, so this was an easy pick for me as my favorite play.
