Greatest play in NFL history!
- Thread starter The Spin Meister
- Start date
Amazing and historic play! After watching this video, I was amazed at how fast and deep Bradshaw dropped.....and his arm strength firing that ball and under duress. And Franco's quick reaction to pull in that deflection in. Wow!
I never released how there were several Raiders near Franco but he flew past them all as no one realized he caught it.
As a neutral, nothing is close. Probably wouldn’t be if it didn’t usher in one of the NFL’s iconic dynasties.
:45 seconds in - Hall of Famer after Hall of Famer with Franco at the back.

For you young bucks, the 70s Cowboys were even more corporate and obnoxious than they are today. Cliff Harris was one of the biggest douches and Lambert throwing him down like the trash was epic. You’ll notice the first thing Harris does is cry to the ref like a Brazilian soccer player. Even his teammates like Jethro Pugh didn’t back him.

This is great! Lambert just abuses the little weasel.Following up, this was my favorite play in the Steelers dynasty (just overshadowing Swannie’s epic catch over a sprawling Mark Washington, and Stall’s 2nd TD to put the 79-80 SB against the Rams away):

That was a huge play. The Cryboys had all the momentum until Harris showed what a douche he was. Lambert planted him, the whole team got really fired up…..and it was game over.Following up, this was my favorite play in the Steelers dynasty (just overshadowing Swannie’s epic catch over a sprawling Mark Washington, and Stall’s 2nd TD to put the 79-80 SB against the Rams away):

Very similar to the Pitt Marino game when they were up 14, started mouthing off…..and 💥 we exploded and wiped them out.

This is a different play, different game. This is during Super Bowl X …..I think….the Steelers just missed a field goal by #39 Gerela the Gorilla and Cliff Harris of Dallas was patting him on the helmet laughing at him.
Mr Lambert took umbrage at that and explained to Mr C Harris that behavior was unacceptable .
the Chet Parlavecchio story from the 48 to 14 game is one of my favorite sports reads of all time
i'm not sure I ever read that or if I did have forgot it. Is it available somewhere to see?
there are a lot of good articles with some Parlavecchio quotes but I can't seem to find the one I am thinking of
or....and more likely I suppose....I have mixed all of those articles together in my mind alongside various quotes from Mr Parlavecchio because my brain is again lol
