All sorts of uniqueness to the TD at the end. It was Rod Smith's first career catch and kickstarted a fantastic career for the undrafted free agent. It was also the only time in Darrell Green's Hall-of-Fame career that he was beaten for a game-winning TD in the final two minutes of a game, and the only time Elway ever threw a TD pass on the final play of a game.

[@astrostar49]

BTW, I think Rod Smith is the only undrafted receiver with 10K+ yards. He's one of my all-time favorite players. I hope he's able to get into the HOF one day.

[@tyreepowell8367]

He Deserves To Be In The Pro Football 🏈🏉 Hall Of Fame

[@taylordoebler1209]

In “Gus” we “Trust” he was a solid quarterback for many years for many teams. OG journeyman quarterback.

[@hfield07]

week 5 of that year is the first time i sat down and watched football with my dad. watched every weekend after that with him for years. special season.

[@montrellchandler4139]

The one thing that stands out is how good both offensive lines look. Compared to what we’re seeing around the league today 😣😅

[@denverwood5290]

I still maintain that the Broncos from around 97-01 had the greatest Oline of all time. Of course that extended into the mid 2000s as well. Any RB that was plugged in produced. Davis, Anderson, Gary, Bell, Portis, etc. It didn't matter. The scheme and coaching was incredible. Mike Shannahan was an offensive genius. Kyle Shannahan has had success with the blocking scheme/philosophy to this day.

[@cbod14]

1995 was an amazing year in The NFL. So many good games, OT games & crazy finishes. Week 3 alone had this one & Raiders-Chiefs.

[@mjwatts1983]

Playoffs IND run to the AFC Champ by upsetting defending AFC Champ SD Final games of Don Shula on MIA’s sideline & Jim Kelly as BUF’s signal caller Linn Elliot & the Curse of Marty GB’s deepest playoff run since the Lombardi Days. Upset defending champ SF & came with 4 of knocking off DAL in NFC Champ. Brett Favre threw a pick that later resulted in a score… Now where have I seen that…? DAL-PIT Super Bowl that was pretty good game. And the behind the scenes stuff… Go read “Boys Will Be Boys”

[@fantasticvoyage262]

And I remember watching it. Hasty had a game winning pick 6 INT return.

[@skyguy1230]

Now I see what all the hype around Elway is about. I was born in 1999 so I never got a chance to watch him but everybody swears he’s one of the goats

[@melvinshine9841]

Between the Terrell Davis touchdown that shouldn't have been and the Washington touchdown catch that should have been, any Washington fans that saw this game must've been heated over some of the calls. That final touchdown throw was a thing of beauty, though.

[@gups4963]

I'll agree with the first, but the reception being able to stay in bounds in the first place isn't that clear and we see it from an angle or far away warps the perspective. That said, you are probably right

[@charlesconner9044]

John Elway is criminally underrated

[@TheAoalec14]

Damn between that Terrell Davis fumble and redskins not being given the force out rule to give them a TD pass was an 11 point swing. Tough loss for them to swallow

[@cbod14]

Washington had several close losses like that where one or two calls gets them into the playoffs

[@JahNuhThunDeeTheOneAndOnly]

The single greatest thing that ever happened to John Elway’s pro career was the Broncos hiring of 49ers offensive coordinator Mike Shanahan.

[@bolokefe5300]

really 🤣 was he not going to the hall of fame before the hiring

[@JahNuhThunDeeTheOneAndOnly]

@@bolokefe5300He was but I’m talking championships

[@kodielicious]

Undrafted Rod Smith's game winning TD was his first career catch and he went on to set franchise receiving records that still stand today as the teams best receiver for 14 seasons.

[@matthewbrillhart194]

I forgot how powerful Terrell Davis actually was. Every run he makes sure somebody pays a price.

[@wilnerolivier7971]

Elway said that's for Super Bowl 22 with that game winning touchdown!!

[@Mr.MikeBarksdale]

Fun fact: that was Rod Smith's first TD catch, to win the game, off Daryl Green. Not bad. God am I that old? I still remember watching this one and it was odd because it was the first Broncos game on Fox Sports. It was like, "Why do we need to go to channel 13 to watch this game"?

[@jackbell2482]

Elway was the goat back in the day in my eyes

[@gturcott1]

That team with a prime elway in the west coast offense with shanahan was awesome

[@raidersacdc4892]

As a lifelong Raiders fan shout out to John Elway. He was a fantastic QB. Even though I despise the Broncos it was nice to see him win back 2 back SB’s

Greatest clutch qb of his era

His era included Montana so Elway is maybe second best.

​@mshat18 elway's comebacks looked impossible. Yet, he pulled it off. Also, joe montana had all the talent in the world, while elway didn't get elite talent until his 30s

[@astrostar49]

Wholly catfish that was a better game throughout than I remember it being. I also forgot how good of an arm Gus Frerotte had. Some of those throws he was chuckin were crisp. As usual thanks for the nostalgia fuel :)

[@minutewithmark7564]

Elway and Denver should thank the refs for the blown fumble call at goal line by Denver and force out on skins td not called also..

[@lulugust8140]

if we just put a damn chip in both ends of every football along with the touchdown goal line and all the first down markers we would have no issues knowing whether that damn ball crosses first down or touchdown

John Elway of 1998 might just be the might have been the best quarterback ever.

Hardly anyone in the Washington secondary were there to protect the endzone and bat the ball down

[@hidaven2006]

SECOND IS THE BEST

[@TuanVan-ne1fg]

15:20 absolute rocket shot 27 yards rope.

[@lzv6990]

I think the throw at 16:06 is even more impressive, even though it’s incomplete. From the far hash to the sidelines the other 49 yard line to the 24 yard line.

[@TuanVan-ne1fg]

The velocity is the same on both passes. look at the play clock on top, the ball released from 58 seconds receiver caught it at 57 seconds. 27 yards in under 1 second

[@tyreepowell8367]

I Miss John Elway NFL Throwback

[@adammartinez9641]

crazy when terrell davis fumbled at the goaline and the refs said it was a td and the announcers said they were wrong and they just moved on with the game

No instant replay then.

Hey it can happen to the Great one like Darrell Green; Great catch by Roddy Rod Smith!

The refs gave Denver 12 points, should’ve been a Skins victory. Additionally, the Smith catch was significantly more impressive than the throw. Elway luck more than magic
