As we gear up for the NFL Playoffs this weekend I started to think about the most memorable moments in NFL playoff history and these came to mind right away.

For me THE most memorable moment was also my worst memory of the NFL Playoffs.  "The Tuck Rule Play."

He most certainly help up and it was a fumble and always will be.  The Raiders ain't been right since man.  I love my Raiders and I just wanted to see how that game would have ended in the snow if they got it right.

"Wide Right!"

The New York Giants beat the Buffalo Bills 20-19 in Super Bowl 21.  Norwood was devastated.  The Bills would go onto three more consecutive Super Bowl's following that year and lose all three.  Bummer for them.  If you are a sports fan you need to see "The Four Falls of Buffalo" from the ESPN 30 for 30 series.  Great TV.

"Immaculate Reception" 

This was before my time but still hurts to see.  This is another time the Raiders got hosed.  THAT BALL HIT THE GROUND!  The Raiders got screwed over by a bad camera angle.

"The Catch"

I could not believe my eyes when I saw this play.  Eli Manning and David Tyree did the impossible.  Not only that but an amazing play by Mario Manningham on the same drive.  What a cool moment.  The Giants slayed the mighty New England Patriots.

"Just Short"

McNair to Dyson on the final play of Super Bowl 34.  Mike Jones makes the tackle and the Rams win on the final play of the game.

"Romo's botched snap"

Too funny.  I was watching it in a bar with some friends who are Giants fans.  We were standing next to a group of Cowboys fans.  When it happened the Cowboy fans cried and cried and we laughed and we laughed.

"Biggest Comeback in NFL history"

The Houston Oilers led the Buffalo Bills by 32 points in the 1993 AFC Wild Card Game.  It appeared to be over.  Frank Reich mounted the biggest comeback in NFL history and the Buffalo Bills moved on.  Crazy game.  I watched it with my dad and he and I both hated the Bills.  We did not get what we wanted that day but I will never forget it.

 

These are just some of my most memorable moments from the NFL playoffs from over the years.  What are yours?  We will be talking about this Monday morning on the Ethan and Lou show on I-95 (95.1FM) WRKI.  Be listening between 8 and 9am Monday and call the show at 203-775-9595 or leave your comment here.
