This will be known as the greatest moment in Vikings history until they win a super bowl.

[@meltykap9914]

It sure will

[@Joserph-pj6yz]

Yes

[@aaronimn2482]

Chris Nowak best moment in nfl history

[@knightlord124]

Thought the giants won over patriots in 2007 in the superbowl was a miracle

[@knightlord124]

@Tim Snortin' the very next game they got massacred. Eagles blew them out.

[@BK-qx6pl]

Diggs' grandkids are going to be telling their grandkids about this play. Absolutely legendary.

[@Thewildterritories]

Crazy thing is NFL may be done for the next year or two.

[@fazephoenix0925]

Not anymore

[@espperre]

Most receivers would have stepped out of bounds given this situation. Diggs instinctively went for the jugular. That’s what winners do; they don’t settle. He forced a trade because the Vikes are stuck in a play-safe mentality. Vikes let go of an elite receiver with a relentless winner’s mentality in favor of a middling and overpaid and middling qb.

[@Sheila612Miller]

@@espperre and I don't understand the very next year we got rid of the QB that gave us that Mpls Miracle. Sometimes I don't get how they think. You do good and they can you? Just stupid but it was a night to remember for all football fans not just us Vikings fans.

[@jordandobbins3313]

He horrible

[@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

He literally pissed away the teams season and SB and tackled his own teammate when all he had to do was tackle or slow down Diggs.In the replay it looks like he looks away too before he tries to make contact with Diggs and that is why he missed completely.

[@anax3804]

[@alyssac9129]

mizofan yeah but a lot of people don't even know that was him and will go to blame the last mistake that was made in the game because that was the last thing they saw

[@Monocausal]

Yea, people will always blame and ridicule him - but what people? Some idiots with low self esteem who feel superiority in downgrading someone for a mistake while they can only dream of being a pro athlete. If he approaches this right, it can make him mentally and professionally stronger which is what I hope for him. I hope this will be the extra % of motivation that make him a great player in the league.

I'm British but am starting to appreciate the NFL more and more to the point where I had to pick a team but have no geographical link to an area in the U.S so because I like Purple, Prince and Mystery Science Theater 3000 I figured I'd go for Minnesota (plus the accent is amazing) and this was the first game I watched......couldn't have picked a better one to start. Hope Marcus Williams recovers from this though as he's a promising player and seems like a good guy

[@cashadobe7313]

Ur in for a surprise for watching the nfl

[@DemandUFODisclosure]

Its the game of the gods, the only one where the fans get to play along and strategize with every snap. Every fan has an opinion on how these combat chess pieces should move, and your football IQ grows quickly as you start taking in games. Soon your opinions manifast as chances taken and predictions made that may bring equal portions of elation and rage. The nuances of this game are endless; a casual fan can morph into a maniac in just a couple short seasons while absorbing them all. Oh yeah, and Minnesota sensibilities are probably the most European of the 50 states (see voting history and civic engagement). Evidence that we're different is evident right from the name: MINNESOTA. Every professional sports team in our state is named after the STATE of Minnesota. Compare that to every other major sports franchise in the US...they're virtually all city teams. WE stand together as a unique and exceptional STATE in this country. Often referred to as "Minnesota Nice"...because it's deserved. Welcome aboard...SKOL!!!

[@marcoscruz1215]

Bad coverage play they should have put an extra defender on the loaded side. They pretty much put it zone even meaning if one guy misses no one else to help support.

Diggs did a great job using one hand to keep from falling down, while holding onto the ball with the other hand and not fumbling it out of bounds.

[@ap81airsoft73]

I've been a Minnesota Vikings fan for nearly 30 years and that was without a doubt the most shockingly amazing play in our team's history. I've never before experienced the rollercoaster ride of emotion of going from completely subdued to elated beyond words 8 seconds later. It is something I will never forget. Thank you 17' Vikings and in particular Case Keenum and Stefon Diggs for the unforgettable memories! SKOL!!!!

[@bikobud]

See the person in the neon green vest that says "FOX" on the sideline right after he caught that pass holding a big plastic thing that looks like a giant salad bowl? (At 56 seconds into the clip) That was me. I was running a parabolic mic for Fox Sports, as I have done for around 20 years for every home Vikings game. That pass came straight at me. If he hadn't caught it it would have hit my parab. This is simply the most exciting moment in over 20 years of being on the sidelines. Unbelievable. The next year for a week before the Super Bowl in Minneapolis I worked on Pro Football Talk for NBC (was also on the sidelines for the game working for NBC), and Stefon was a guest on the show. I guided him to sit on the set and said , "You know, I was 10 feet away from you when you caught that pass!". He laughed and said, "Was it exciting?" and I said, 'YES!!!! The most exciting thing in 20 years!". He was super cool about the whole thing. What a great moment to have been part of!

Everyone acts like Williams made a poor choice, but to be honest, that’s what he needed to do. It was the execution that he messed up. If he goes for an arm tackle, Diggs’s momentum carries both of them out of bounds and Forbath (maybe) hits a game winner on the next play.
