	You might consider adding Leon Lett, the Phantom Spike, wardrobe malfunction, or the Greatest Game Ever Played.

	I do believe the Tuck Rule game occurred in 2002, as Tom Brady was the quarterback.

	And, even as a Patriots fan, I would have to put the David Tyree catch in Super Bowl 42 up there, simply because it was one of the greatest/most pivotal plays in NFL history.

	I was tempted to put the Tyree catch in there, but to be consistent in 20 years, nobody will probably remember what receiver, and the quarterback would have been too easy for now. Also, I probably should have added Leon Lett, or even a Don Beebee answer referencing Lett.

	Tuck rule happened during 2001 season

	Also, 4th and 26 occurred during a divisional playoff round, not the NFC Championship Game. It pained me to type that one in.

	@weeps, makes sense regarding the Tyree catch. @kraffcook, while the game was played during the 2001 season, the actual play occurred during the playoffs, which took place in January 2002.

	As a Vikings fan, I cannot thank you enough for putting Jim Marshall up there. Seriously. As for others, I'd propose Joe Namath's guarantee, the Helmet Catch, and Joe Theismann's gruesome injury.

	son of a btich i made almost this exact game and it only got like 100 hits...why does this always happen to me

	It should be the Miracle IN the Meadowlands. At least accept both answers. Growing up in New Jersey as an Eagles fan, that's how I always heard it.

	snowblower?

	weeps:	Jan 18th, 2010 at 22:22 GMT	0 points
	I accepted "Miracle at the Meadowlands" and "Miracle of the Meadowlands", "Miracle in the Meadowlands" doesn't seem to be that accepted of an answer, turning few legitimate google results but I'll add it anyways. And due to the "Snow Plow Game" being universally accepted as the term for the game, I am not going to add snowblower.

	freakshow42:	Jan 18th, 2010 at 23:04 GMT	1 point
	you should allow "Riverfront Stadium" for the location... as well as Cincinnati.

	nomuny12:	Jan 18th, 2010 at 23:07 GMT	-1 points
	Is it too soon to add Nate Kaeding on here? An All-Pro kicker with a 91% success rate in the regular season going 0-3 in the playoffs sounds like NFL lore to me.
