Harrison’s pick 6 deserves way more credit. I saw that shit live. It was madness that he made it to midfield. Every player on the cardinals offense had a chance to tackle the man and he just kept running and high stepping and leaping over guys, it was surreal then and it remains surreal. Harrison probably hadn’t run a hundred yard dash since grade school. Larry Fitzgerald catches up to him 3 times, Townsend tries to take the ball from him right after them play starts because what business does James Harrison have running a pick back? And the way he protects and lands in the end zone! 14 point swing to end the first half of The Super Bowl. It’s the best sports play I’ve ever witnessed.
Agreed 100%. That play completely changed that game.
1. Immaculate Reception
2. The Catch
3. The Music City Miracle
4. Roethlisberger to Holmes
5. Butler's Interception
6. Harrison's Interception Return
7. Sea of Hands
8. Tyree's Helmet catch
9. The Tackle
10. Marcus to Glory
11. Beastquake
In a game that came down to a last second TD, had he not scored they would've lost. Every yard of that return mattered

@@stacieorico5624 Trance stinks on ice.
I mean, a lot of people saw that play live...it was the Super Bowl, lol. Or do you mean you were at the game?
While I am a Patriots fan, I do believe James Harrison’s interception and then 99 yard touchdown return should be in the top 5 plays!
Same. Patriots fan as well but that is one of the greatest plays of all time in one of the greatest Super Bowls of all time. Stupidly low on this list.
I think it's funny that Harrison managed to pull it off because the Steelers had been burned by pick plays all that year
Agreed. How many tackles he avoided and as a linebacker/lineman to make it 99 yards. Is unbelievable
@JACOB GRANT omg stop crying
Lots of hold lol theres holding on every play in every game stop crying
I believe it should to because he not suppose to return that all the way plus a joke
0:55 holy crap that ref is insane. 😂
Definitely should be HOF
S P E D
4.2 forty
I mean he did rig the game too
*CAMERAMAN*
20:59 that look on Erin’s face is the same look I get when I visit the family for Thanksgiving and my mom and sister in law start arguing.

Go direct to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect 200 dollars.
Manning to Manningham is legendary.
As good a pass in NFL history. Great catch too!
Best throw EVER
Dot city
Best throw and catch in sb history
I’m a pats fan and I was in absolute awe when I saw that pass.
The title should be :Greatness for 30 minutes straight
your profile pic should just be "not worth a max contract"
Jay Towerz Dak deserves his money, with or without Dallas
Cowboys are the best
Logan Gaming44 how many years since they been to a bowl
@optemestic pats fan 😂
The TD by The Fridge in '85 loses a lot of its luster when you realize that Walter Payton got screwed out of what turned out to be his only opportunity to score in a Super Bowl because Ditka decided it was more important to humiliate an opponent that was already getting blown out.
I agree 75% but for two things. Most important, NE keyed on Walter the whole game. On one play he went right, and 5 Pats followed him while McMahon went left and walked into the end zone. Second, the Bears final score came toward the end of the 3rd period. No one could've known, as easily as they were scoring, that would be shutout in the 4th period. The sad thing is, as good as the team was in the mid-to-late '80s, they only made it to one SB.
as a Seahawks fan:
nr. 8: Niceeee
nr. 4: Ouuuuch
Yup lol The worst part about watching these is you know the pick is coming but the best is you know beast quake is coming.
As a Raiders fan:
Nbr 9: nice
Nbr 1: ouch
I loved the Hasslebeck one when he said they were gonna score lmao but then again I’m a Chiefs fan so we have plenty of embarrassing ones on here too
96: big ouchies
Ok.
24:10 I really love watching this shot. That guy diving after Marcus Allen looks so cinematic. Lol
Had the bears won Super Bowl 41 18:46 would’ve been much higher. The play and reading was nigh-flawless, out of nowhere and the cinematography was gorgeous. The camera flashes in the stadium to open the Super Bowl and this kick, along with the lush green tropical field and blue/orange SB logo and teams just make a visual beauty. The colts/bears contrast is just great. Not to mention the amazing looking the cameras in that 2006-2007 period transitioning from the late-90s era technology to the 2008 absurd resolution and new screen graphics. It’s the perfect sweet spot of quality while having natural nostalgic value. This entire game, trash or not from the bears offense, was eye candy, even when it got more gritty and cinematic with the downpour
Went through the list to find it..Should be top 5 at least
A lot of these would be higher had their team won
Like Rodgers Hail Mary was one of the most insane things ever and the Jones and Kearse catches were better than the Giants catches
The tenacity of Eli Manning and his receiver's Helmet Catch. Only Team I feared playing my 49ers.
@@MrV41N word he should have feared a lot more teams than just the giants🤣
Sometimes it takes an awesome video like this for you to truly appreciate all the epic moments this sport has given us since we were able to start recording it on film.
I agree and them cameras showed some wonderful games over the years. Now it's been stripped of what Football should be
Thank you Steve Sabol for turning highlights into art. 🌹
23:25 should be higher.
It's not special, Only a pick-six.
@@beyondperfection2953 Of course is special, is a 99 yd pick-six in a Superbowl, with only 13 seconds to end the first half.
HerrErichDietrich it prevented a cardinals touchdown and gave his teams score before halftime, shifting all the momentum to their side, and in a closed game like that, it was very important.
Definitely should be ahead of Beast Quake
I’m a cardinals fan :(
Mahomes TD run against the Titans got me yelling so loud with excitement, I knew we were gonna go to the Super Bowl after that. As a Chiefs fan since birth it almost made me cry because my grandparents weren’t there to see it
I’m sorry... but David Tyree’s catch has gotta be number one. The circumstances of that play were made it that much more amazing

Didn’t see Ronde Barbers interception..I mean cmon it sent the bucs to the super bowl and was the last game at veterans stadium.
If this was just the playoffs and not including Superbowls it would've been
@@fredleeland2464 if you payed any attention, you'd of noticed that there were several clips from a superbowl. Post Season-- AFC team vs NFC team=Superbowl.
@@asgardloki305 if you read properly i was saying it shouldn't include the superbowl
@@fredleeland2464 I know it does say top 100 playoff plays
🤡
Play #42 Eli Manning. Play #17 Eli Manning. Play #3 Eli Manning. What a LEGEND 👏 💙
Devin Hester's kick off return is one of my favorite plays ever for no reason
He's one of the only returners besides Sanders where you thought any time he touched the ball it was a guaranteed touchdown. I'm not even a bears fan, but that return in the Super Bowl lit a fire like no one has ever seen before.
@@mattevans1643 Devin Hester is the best ever. Period. Even Deion would tell you that
Super bowl and bcs champ both that year
@@mattevans1643 While I'm a Colts fan, I was impressed too (my daughter still screams "stop him!" whenever we watch the replay lol) and think that if Chi had had a real QB they might've won. However, I don't what you saw that makes you think it lit a fire. Oddly, the Bears D couldn't stop the Colts running game.
I saw over 90% of those plays and I figured the "immaculate reception" would be the #1 play of all time which I still remember vividly to this day.
It really looks like the most explosive eruption of joy in NFL history when Franco crosses that goal line. Like the ultimate sports movie scene with all the fans running onto the field. Only thing I have against it is that it was such a blind-luck kind of play. Franco was just in the right place at the right time by pure chance.
@@billny33 That's true of a lot of good plays.
@@billny33 the immaculate deception should have been a dead play and penalty against Pittsburgh according to the rules at that time. Instead it's going to continue to headline lists like this because the fans would have rioted
@@jonhu4127 why do you think it shouldn't have counted? Cause of illegal touching? I think the ball had to have gone off Tatum otherwise there's no way it creates such a fierce backwards ricochet like that. Do you think the ball hit the ground? I saw no proof of that and I'm convinced Franco got his hands under it. Cause of the clip on McMacon that Villapiano always complains about? That one I have no rebuttal for. Not familiar enough with what constitutes clipping in 1972.
@@billny33 Tatum didn't touch the ball. He hit the intended receiver which jarred the ball loose and into Harris' hands. In that era of football, two offensive players touching a pass in sequence without a defensive player laying hands on it between was a penalty. We've seen nearly identical plays several times the last couple years, only the rules changed to make that a legal play.
Edit: there is a different angle on the play that most videos don't include here showing that Tatum didn't actually touch the ball
Love my Steelers , all men who wear the colors is always a Steeler for life . Congrats to Mike Vrable on the playoffs and Hines Ward doing great things with the Jets Alan Faneca will be a HOF player next year but coach Cowher , Troy , and Donnie Shell all got in this year . Can't wait for the next season 🖤💛🖤💛💪
7-0!!!!!!!!
@@Thatoneguyy70 Im a Steeler fan and can say this with confidence. They were the WORST 11-0 team in NFL history.
@@jimmyplenderleith9471 sadly
Me: immediately goes to top 20 to see Philly Special.
Also me: FORTY EIGHT?!?!!?
Jarod Standifer just another trick play
It looks too easy that why
@@lowkeyblunt7278 executed on a fourth down in a Super Bowl against the greatest dynasty we've ever seen to win the franchise's first super bowl?
Jarod Standifer just another trick play😂
That play would work 99 percent of the time if executed well
This is why we love Football. Celebrate 100th year of NFL

Let me know if I missed any!
That must have taken a while jeez
Nope, you got them all. Good job!
To me playoffs do not include the Super Bowl so they need to redo this but even other video's show the greatest playoff losses but then show losses in the super bowl.
dude get a life nobody cares youre still a loser go back to wackin off in your parents basement
It's a shame that the first super bowl I ever watched was XLIII, with two of the greatest plays in super bowl history happening it set my expectations way too high for the following years to come. But damn it was a great one.
Scott Norwood miss, which gave the Giants their second super bowl, needs to be in the top 100.
The Minneapolis Miracle has to be in the top 10 at least
It is 11
Charles Hartleigh damn
Disappointment is part-and-parcel of being a Saints fan.
@@AnomAnomMTG: At least you guys have a SB win. In my life time, the Vikings have made it to the NFC championship 5 times, and failed every time. We haven't been to the SB since the 70s and have lost all 4 of our SB games.
Stop with the recency bias.
SB 43 announcer: that pick six is the play of the game
Santonio Holmes: hold my weed
The pick six was the best individual play in Super Bowl History!
@@davidodoms2812 That play is amazing. Every time I see it, I think he’s not going to score. That’s how good it is.
10 penalties against the Steelers on that runback
Lmaooooooooo you win the internet 😂
Franco Harris definitely deserves that number 1 spot. That was brilliant.
these calls give me chills
Barry deserves way more than one play, he’s a legend
17:11 that voice crack from aikman shows of how he feels about the packers now
17:57 underrated!!
Love or hate him, he sure can throws bombs!
It didn't really matter though.... The cards took the game
Stop with the recency bias.
I’m a Cards fan, and that would be top 10 if we didn’t win that game
Should be higher at least top 20 (it would be top 15 if Green Bay won that game)
Bro, I just wanna thank you for your consistent awesomeness!!!
Colin Barlow this is an official nfl channel lol, still awesome tho
I know I’m biased being a Steelers fan, but I can’t ever get over how under-appreciated Roethlisberger’s pass to Santonio Holmes in Super Bowl 43 is. The fact that Big Ben put it in the perfect spot and Santonio Holmes stretched his body as far as he could to make that catch was surreal. In addition, it was to win not only the game, but the Super Bowl. That said, I really enjoyed the video. All were great plays.
Greatest play in NFL playoffs history helmet catch underrated of all time
Definitaly
Manraj Singh I agree
Jeffery Robertson it’s 3rd tf you mean underrated lmao
It’s not underrated most people consider it the greatest catch ever
Yeah, should be 1
One of my favorite live memories is Darrel Green hurdling a Bear defender on a punt return. I can't remeber if it was divisional or Championship, but they were heavy weights battling it out. Same year Doug Williams lit up the Broncos in the Super Bowl i think
Love this list. So many great plays!!
All of those plays in NFL are always amazing.
Where is Mariota’s pass to himself or McNair’s Super Bowl Scramble? Titans had a ton of plays that weren’t on here. And Music City Miracle is way too low man
Tristan Lockamy music city miracle was a forward pass
@@skyehamilton9209 and your a dummy
@@skyehamilton9209 Bill's fan?
they had to make room for the tackle at the 1 yard line
@Universe_pog look at the play from the 90° angle, it's a lateral
Dude some of these are insane
Number 1 is simply lucky. Montana to Taylor in the last drive of the match.. after having just suffered a punt TD.... in a Superbowl dominated by defenses...is history!
Great list, can't imagine the arguments that happened by those who made it. tough to guess the top ten let alone the top play. Well made. All plays deserve recognition. Legends, History, all in it.
12:36 "Casper makes an over the shoulder catch"!! 😂😂😂😂
As a Cowboys fan I’m ashamed to see so many plays against them however I’m proud that they’ve been in the playoffs and Super Bowl so many times!
Ohr Shmuel they just blow people out when they win, nothing too memorable about that lol. Maybe one day we’ll get back there.
Austin Hickey well at least it means when they’re good, they’re 10 times better than their opponents
Great compilation!!!! Damn, gotta wait 6 months for football
Although I'm a Bears fan from the UK, just seeing John Riggins reminds me of why I love this game!
Hasselback: We want the ball we’re gonna score
*Throws pick six😂😂😂
I mean he scored
"Marlin Jackson's got it, we're going to the Superbowl " 😁😁😁
Thankfully, the Colts had a 4 point lead, and the Pats had to go for a TD.
Play 86 & 85, Thanks NFL Throwback, now Imma have nightmares for the next two weeks
Just amazing,, I love it
2:03 Such an underrated play💯
So no one is gonna talk about the fact that the Philly Special should be so much higher
Frankie Bevenour should be top ten for sure
where was it i cant find it
@@jackclay4585 ...All the way down at #48.
Frankie Bevenour should be way higher
Definitely, without that touchdown we would have lost
This is the best list yet all the best playoff plays hell yeah
How many more days am I going to completely waste watching these videos? I LOVE ‘em!
Lynch v Saints is the best play I have ever seen.
You know a SuperBowl is great when it has 3 different plays in here and two of them are in the top 15... of all time
Wabash Super Bowl 43 is top 3 of all time. Right behind Super Bowl 51 and 49
It should've been No. 1 but.... Patriots' fans happened.
I hate the Saints as a falcons fan but that onside kick doesn't get enough love.
Great work. I'm sure other people have already asked... But could you identify each game in question by year, round and final score? Many times it's really hard to know which game is it.
Honestly that David Tyrie Catch was so great probably in my opinion the best of all time because of how hard they had to work for it . Wht Eli did to be able to throw and find him was legendary. Thats the only way to beat the greatest team to ever play
Was a sack
@@Ynkno nah i know u don’t believe that
@@Ynkno Ha ha ha ha
If the Malcom butler interception happened in 1983 it would be number 1
Dude that manning throw to manningham is insane probably the best throw I’ve ever seen
These plays is great I love them all
#35 and 2 plays later...comes the most infamous play call ever in Super Bowl history. Run the damn ball!!!
Next on NFL Throwback: *Top 100 plays in Preseason history*
@NO PATS JIM Mahomes 80 yard bomb to Tyreek Hill, just before his MVP season
@NO PATS JIM it still was an amazing play that announced the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ
Great job
Best 30 minutes in a while. Except 6 should be 1.
Big Ben Shoe string tackle, tell me who could do that
Word, top ten all time Steeler play
Went from happy to oh s#!@ to yessssss to HE MISSED IT!!!
Best tackle by a QB in NFL history, and It’s not even close.
Countless kickers
I hate that guy. But damn you are right. Not many QBs in history would do that
Aaron Rodgers
Older players after scoring an incredible touchdown:
“Where’s the ref so I can politely give him the ball”
“Let me just spike this ball and jog a few feet”
Great video
Love the radio announcers. Reminds me of my childhood
23:57 after Harrison pick six : That is the biggest play of this football game
Santonio Holmes: ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?
And throw in Fitz’ 64 yard catch and run as well, though not in the league of those other two.
@@stinkingjoke1 yeah it was a great play as well super underrated
My all time play from having watch football for 52 years is the Riggins run (with help from The Hogs) in the '87 Super Bowl. We had about 7-8 people in a small den in my house, and as soon as Riggo broke clear from McNeal every single person screamed and leaped up, sending assorted drinks and munchies into the air and everwhere. One buddy to this day despairs with the memory - he was sitting on the floor in front of the couch, and he missed everything (at least live) after the McNeal broken tackle because two people vaulted off of the couch and fell on top of him. I had no complaints about the extensive clean up I had to do the next morning...
Love your vids
Have to say those were good choices. My all time favorite: Riggo running left for 43 and the score. First of three was in hand.
Eli Manning with 2 throws to end the Pat's..luv it .
Just started this but James Harrison’s 100 yard pick 6 in super bowl 43 better be in the top 10
Great stuff....I watched all 100 plays just now. - Chris
Best vid you ever made
Music City Miracle man... can’t beat it.
Forward pass*
I wish all this music was available to stream/download.
Great video!
Great video! Brings back memories.
My only change would be to take Montana to Dwight Clark off the list, as it's not, repeat not, that special COMPARED to all the other great plays.
Philly Special needs to be higher than the Minneapolis Miracle for the simple fact that the first led to a SB win while the second led to the Vikings getting absolutely mauled the next week by the Eagles.
Fred Taylor with the crazy moves 1:32
Ronde Barber’s NFC championship interception is never in these countdowns. Very underrated play....
You got the top 2 right. Great video
0:00-30:01 would’ve been a fumble in madden
0:00-30:01 would've been predetermined in madden
5:23 NFL are the only people to have the best quality old footage
The walk-off TD from Everett to Flipper in the '89 playoffs is still my favorite playoff moment of all time.
As a Giants one of my most painful.
I love the plays that fool the announcers. No. 3 play: "He's gonna be sacked. No, he got out of it!"
I love how number 85 was a throwback when it only happened a couple weeks ago 😂🤣
My Steelers are well represented (no surprise) but did I miss Swann's sideline catch in SB X?
Wow! Awesome 💘
Beautiful, PITTSBURGH Baby. From Phoenix AZ.
YES! A day late but imma let it slide.
I celebrated the super bowl too hard needed an extra day haha
I would've included ARod's 50-yard hail Mary against the Giants and Mariota's self touchdown in KC
Then you have to include Eli and his 50 yard td to Nicks b4 halftime?
Ronde Barber pick six in the 2003 NFC Championship game. Great play and should've made top 100.
Some of these highlights are tough to watch. Great vid though.
