Immaculate Reception

The most bizarre play EVER in all sports. Down 7-6, with 22 seconds remaining in the 1972 AFC Wild Card matchup, Terry Bradshaw threw a pass intended for John Fuqua. Oakland Raiders saftey Jack Tatum reach Fuqua when the ball did, and the ball deflected from him. Just as the ball seemed to slip to the ground, Steelers runningback Franco Harris scooped up the ball when it was less than an inch from the ground, and ran it in to the endzone to end the game. Craziest play in NFL history.

And Franco Harris has just won the game with the Immaculate Reception.
