[@gregorlesho2138]

thx for that

[@penitentman4862]

Nice list thanks

[@JDP2104]

You saying lol for the teams who arent here make this list so much better

[@ericcarney3121]

76 could be the Cardinals dark red helmets with no face guard would be 52-53 home helmets, Bears had dark blue helmets with no face guard in 50-53, 38 might be Chicago Bears, 36 might be Lions silver hard shell helmet with no face guard puts it around 51-52 the same years the rams had the horns on their helmets, could also be 49ers they played in 1950-1953 in silver hard shell helmets with no face guard as well, now if the helmet is white then that would be the Cardinals and 1952 away helmets, 29 is the colts. best I can do.

[@blargsharge2417]

The only 1 incredible panthers play is in the playoffs

[@LucSzI]

As a giants fan, it's sad see both meadowlands miracles in the top 2 ;-;

[@GiantsFan1734]

There’s no way that the 2010 one is the greatest play in NFL history. That just sounds wrong. There has to be something better than that. Was it really that significant? The eagle lost in the first round that year. And #2 was more of an all time bad play than an all time great play.

[@LucSzI]

@@GiantsFan1734 yeah, they are truly miracles, but I don't think they are top 10 "greatest plays in regular season history".

[@stephenstaedtler6902]

@@GiantsFan1734 - It basically knocked the Giants out of the playoffs and gave the Eagles the division title. And to blow a 31-10 lead at home in just over 7 minutes, in that fashion, was shocking. I do agree, probably not #1, but up there.

[@Chewyfood]

(Eagles fan here) I'd have to agree. DJack at #1...ehhhh. It was a great play, but not #1. The top play should be something that has a mix of spectacle and awe, possibly leading to some new rule change, adding to the greatness of a particular player, while also providing some sort of significance to a team's regular season. Maybe record setting as well. Jack Dempsey's 63 yard field goal is a top candidate. That 63 yarder was the record for so many years...you always looked at this in the records and thought, "who the hell is ever going to break, let alone tie, this record?"

[@Spamus]

Should have been reversed. The 1978 play should have been #1

[@559BearDown]

Larry Allen preventing a pick six against New Orleans deserves a spot amongst the greatest plays in history. A truly impressive feat.

[@siler7]

Was that regular season? If so, not having that here is borderline criminal.

[@Christopurrrrr]

Damn, they did the Saints dirty showing the kick after at 26:05 😂😂 they even raised the NOOOO volume .

[@aRBy125]

Sadly (as a Saints fan), you can't show the River City Relay without the missed kick.

[@Crusader1815]

#94 was amazing, so I had to research it... That is a running back named Charlie Brown who played for the Saints in 1967 and 68. He only played 2 seasons and had a sum total of 16 yards rushing on 8 carries, 23 yards on 3 receptions, and 301 return yards for his whole career.

@Oliver McCall bruh did u not see the whole play they did to get to the end zone?

You should make a compilation of the top play of every year of the NFL ( or start at when you can find footage since it would be really hard to find footage from the 20s and 30s)

For people wondering why number 3 is important, it was the first game back in the Superdome after Hurricane Katrina. For a lot of people, it meant nothing, but for New Orleans, it meant so much to finally have a feeling of joy after the storm.

#52 is the most boring call for an amazing play I've ever seen

[@prathamingale7436]

Brent no 61

[@oddbigking9069]

Yeah the announcer always sounds bored. He did the catch 2 where T.O made the clutch catch in the playoffs against the Packers and he sounded bored there. John Madden who was talking about the play sounded more excited than the guy who announced the play as it was live.

[@realitities2]

Brent Pat Sumerall. Listen to him call the game winning drive from the pats super bowl against the rams. Biggest upset in SB history at the time, young backup QB leading a go ahead drive (nobody knew he’d become who he is now obviously), 48 yard kick for the first walk off score in SB history And pat sumerall sounds like he’s playing minesweeper on his laptop while the games going

[@josephvanhorn5347]

You guys don’t even know what you were listening to.

[@MozartDylan]

no larry allen? when he chased down player from standing position?

[@bradmiller9121]

The thing that still amazes me after all these years is in the Holy Roller it is so obvious that Stabler THREW the ball forward. Despite what Al Davis would say about the NFL going after him, the Raiders of that era were the consistent recipients of that kind of officiating.

[@Fraccy]

As an eagles fan I was WAITING for them to put those Miracles of the Meadowlands. I didn't expect them to be number 2 and 1!!! Although I'm pleased with that :D

Amazing, Thank you.

[@stanleyedwards7070]

Can we agree that Devin Hester is the greatest punt returner ever?

[@majinsole8554]

*returner ~_~

[@bbq_steak5632]

Plays with Steelers in them should be. D-Hop sled tip TD pass. Both Juju 97-yard tds. AB Helmet catch against the Titans. 75-Yard TD where Chris Conte got baptized. Le’Veon Bell Tip toe Receiving TD against the bengals 2017. Martavis Bryant flipping TD against the bengals. AB toe Tap catch to put us in Field Goal Range to win against the packers. AB Spencer Lanning punt return(kick to the face mask.) Zeke up the middle (2016). Joe Haden Pick against the pats. Immaculate Extension

[@andrewlehr123]

#2 and #1 are both eagles miracles

Yeah I'm sure the person making this list is totally unbiased :D

[@Zmad724]

1:12 (Play 95) This is why (outside of a very clear lane for a Pick 6) you should always fall to the ground after you make the INT when the game is over. I'll never forget that play by Meachem.

[@559BearDown]

It's almost criminal to not include the previous week's walk off pick 6 by Mike Brown @ #100. Those two plays belong together!

[@astrostar49]

Is the best 1989 John Taylor 4th quarter 90 plus yard run against the Rams on the list?

[@endlessmountain]

Some top SB plays: Two Eli Mannning passes, The Ben Roethisberger throw vs ARZ, John Elway run near goalline (nothing too big), Ten-Stl 1 yard line, Ne/Sea Interception, Sea-Den first play of the game, Philly Special, Wide Right, End of Half Harrison Return as well as many other dominating ones not found and some of those (NYG botched ending) makes the upper end of this list. Very Very interesting choice of highlights I feel.

I fail to understand how they do these lists. Is it based off the few recent tapes they have recorded and the standard old stock footage? Is it based off emotion? Their favorite teams? The top 3 can make anyone question this list.

[@ozzcooper]

#3 was more the situation. The first home game in NO after the hurricane and Steve Gleason, who blocked the kick, has ALS. More of a bittersweet moment.

[@SapienAnamoly]

So now I'm curious what Play 101 is, lol!

[@mikewood8561]

Back in the 80s their was no internet or KZbin. My friends and I put 100 bucks each in a pool and all picked fantasy teams. Then we'd watch the games and it would make watching that much more fun. Then Monday morning we'd go buy the newspaper and read the stats from every game to tally all our points. It was fun but at the time I didn't think it would become a real thing. We just did it for extra fun. We also couldn't watch replays and videos about the games. We watched Sportscenter Sunday night to actually see the highlights from the other games. The only game they usually televised back then was the Pat's game. I'm from New England. It's just crazy to me how hard it was back then to play fantasy football and to see highlights. Now you got KZbin, fb, and also the NFL network. Just wild how things changed so much.

[@DNSKansas]

Play #94...Charles Robert (Charlie) Brown played only six NFL games, all for the Saints (3 in 1967, 3 in 1968). The play was from the 1968 finale vs. the Steelers at Tulane Stadium. Coincidentally, Brown played on the same field in the 1966 Sugar Bowl when his Missouri Tigers defeated Florida, led by future Heisman Trophy winner Steve Spurrier. Pittsburgh's punter, Bobby Walden, was still with the Steelers when they won Super Bowl IX at Tulane (the last NFL game in the facility). Walden had a punt blocked which resulted in Minnesota's only points.
