TOUCHDOOOOWNN!! NOOOOOOO!!!
Josue Arias lol
Josue Arias like your logo
Edgar B eagles super bowl champs

MICOLE WHYTE it did happen
3:13 best announcer call in nfl history
Paul Allen, atleast we have one of the best announcers in the NFL to say we lost....
totally agree, man!
Toouch!... TOUCHDOWN! NOOOOOO!
Revan I dunno I think one of the best announcer calls was on the other side from Joe buck of all people
"DIGGS!
SIDELINE!!
TOUCHDOWN!!!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!"
And that was the Vikings radio commentator lol
Packers gave that cardinals receiver tickets to their wild card game and he came. Frozen but he was there
He saw one of their NFC West rivals getting dunked on, then ;)
Really?
They also gave him the key to the city
@@richardjones9513 Yeah I was at both the final week when the Packers beat the Broncos (which was a game experience unlike any other because of the entire crowd watching the luxury box since they were watching the Cards Vikes game, and reacting a split second after they started going nuts). Then the "we want the ball, we're gonna score" game. I met Nathan Poole walking around the stadium. He was loving the attention and love from us Packer fans.
@@richardjones9513 No they gave Mccown the key
I really love how often a division rivals, even though eliminated already, would play their butts off to ruin the other teams playoffs hopes to give them them biggest FU!
it's idiotic really
@@lucasng4712 how? It’s a rivalry. You don’t want them to beat you do you? Fuck them.
@@lucasng4712 Only idiotic if you think moving up one or two draft positions is worth not having the morale boost a win like that affords
@@bloodorange6713 Definitely worth it
I see nothing wrong with it lol
I still remember that year where the Panthers and Packers were trying to outscore each other indirectly because of a 'point differential' tiebreaker, only for Dallas to win later that day and make the whole this meaningless, lol.
LOL thats insane
Enjoy
m.czcams.com/video/AZ83nnODDjs/video.html
What year was that?
@@justinpettit3432 1999 the Packers beat the Cardinals 49-24 and the Panthers won 45-13, but the Packers had the better point differential for the season. Cowboys won the tiebreaker, though.
Yay dallas
The giants need: everyone to magically get 14 losses and everyone ties.
ELR4 6 this makes absolutely no sense
Tom Brady Shady #WOAT#MaddenCursed#OldFART hense the point of saying magically
ELR4 6 I know but losing 14 games wouldn’t make sense at this point if the season is in the final week
Tom Brady Shady #CheatSquad#SpyOnYou#WOAT it’s called a joke
@@tombradyshadycheatsquadspy5590 With a name like that, stupidity is inevitable.
Why u gotta do chief fans like that at the end lmao
bro I s3wear your everywhere are you stalking me
@@liftedbari5853 If you see him and he doesn't see you, it's the other way around. You are stalking him.
Yes true
LOL! Nice "Berry" on top at the end lol!
Because screw the Chiefs.
And look now, the Bills are in the playoffs.
youre welcome ;)
YEP AND JOSH ALLEN IS ARE LORD AND SAVIOR
dabomb 23 I hope he plays like that tomorrow.
And look at now bills trash
Gabe Decorse yes, but at least we still have the greatest fans in the NFL watching no matter what the record is.
"Emmitt Smith is the type of guy, where if you ask how are you? He's going to tell you he's okay"
What’s funny about that?
LegitPwnz Cause that's what everyone says when you ask them that.
😂😂
Kale👍
Yeah, I heard him say that. Thanks for the needless recap.
In regards to Titans/Patriots and “would Brady sit out?”
New England actually was fighting for seeding. Because Indy had lost their previous 2 games, the Pats were still in line for a 3 seed had they won and Indy lost
4:28 trust me bears fans hated Rogers since he got drafted
Bears fan agreed
That 4th and 12 TD by the Bengals today.. incredible
Dont give me Vietnam flashbacks..
I am in 2020 and once again the Bengals have a chance to knock out Baltimore
@@jonathanfrimerman8855 even if the ravens lose they can still get in
@@jonathanfrimerman8855 lol You guys just beat Baltimore in overtime for a wild card spot.
Calling Pat Summerall "boring" is an insult to the word boring.
As a Titans fan, I seem to recall that 2006 season finale ended up working out that every single thing that needed to happen to put the Titans in the playoffs happened, except for beating the Patriots.
Yes. The Titans actually hung tough most of that game until the Patriots scored two more touchdowns and put the game away
Looking at this..... Today the Raiders can make playoffs at 8-8 if
Raiders win the Broncos
Steelers lose to the Ravens
Titans lose to the Texans
Colts win the Jags
Possible? Maybe what's crazier is in Week 16 to stay alive they needed
Jets to win the Steelers
Saints to win the Titans
Ravens to win the Browns
Raiders to win the Chargers
And all that happened
So Week 17 please make me happy 🥺
Ryan Randone exactly when that is literally the only problem and your own team needing to win I have my doubts about Raideds beating the Broncos at Mile High 🤷♂️ but shit sometimes we need luck right
They'll ALSO need at least one of the Bears, Chargers, Lions, or Patriots to win their games. If all four lose, then they and the Steelers would be tied on strength of victory, and the Steelers would have the strength of schedule tiebreaker.
CasualGameFreak Dolphin winning the Pats? Idk about tht. I know there's always an upset it's just I don't see it 🤷♂️
@@peepsyogi The dolphins beat the patriots out of nowhere sometimes, but ur right I doubt that will happen
3:25-3:29 when you study hard for a test and still fail
In 2016, the Buccaneers needed 6 things to go their way in week 17 to make the playoffs. I believe 5 of them happened
As a bucs fan I was mad
One of those outcomes was the redskin and giants game had to end in a tie because either of them winning would have knocked them out. That by itself was a long shot.
As a bucs fan I remember that. However first game Eagles vs Cowboys didn't happen so we lost. (Kinda worth it tho since it was Romo final game)
I like how this always gets recommended to me before week 17.
2003 this reminds me of the AFC South this year
Texans you never know they always stay competetive with Titans, they could pull of a big week 17 upset and crown the Colts who will probably beat the Jags
The best one was nathan poole from josh mcown and got the packers in and poole got key to city lmao
8:36 Alex Smith gets nailed by his own teammate
Now he gets drilled by his former teammates.... 🔥
Alex Smith, if only he was drafted from any 0ther team.
8:40 funny
And this year the Raiders still have a chance, if 10 things go in their favor, and 5 already have
Broncos said no 😂
Let's all not forget that the Ravens, Bengals, and Steelers have two extra bye weeks
They play the Browns twice lol
BeastMode Gaming they have three bye weeks? UNFAIR
This did not age well lol
Austin Western Right lol
Crayzier GamingI’m from the future the they tied to the browns
The ravens lost to the browns lol
The crazy thing with that 06' season.. my Titans had all the variables that needed to go their way, actually did. But unfortunately, they lost to the Patriots. Which killed their playoff hopes. Which opened the door for the Chiefs to sneak in.
VW DT Would have been the first team to start 0-5 and make the playoffs
I want the Falcons to make the playoffs this year at 9-7 after starting 0-5. That's cool. Falcons will pull big upsets this mounth I feel it
What about 2020? There is gonns be a 10 win team in the AFC that will miss the playoffs, heading into week 17 5 spots are STILL open which is crazy
4-8 Chargers has to win their last 4 games with a lot of help including winning week 17 against the Broncos to make it to the playoffs
Right? That was actually mathematically the MOST UNLIKELY playoff scenario to work out in NFL history
In 2020 the Cowboys had a 1% chance get in and now the may do the unthankboll
When those Chargers were 5-8 they played at KC which was 2-11. The Chiefs kicker missed a 55-60 yard FG by inches on the last play of the game allowing the Chargers to win by one point. Had that kick been good the Chargers would have been eliminated in Week 15.
1993 Raiders should've been on this list. Major late game after that Dallas/Giants classic was Raiders/Broncos with the Raiders needing to win to make the playoffs. They came back from 30-13 down to tie it at 30 on the last play of regulation. Then survive Jason Elam missing a 40 yard FG in OT to win 33-30 and host the wild card...against the same Broncos a week later. And they blew them out in the second half, winning 42-24 after it was tied at 21 at halftime.
good idea for NFL video for once. finally for once HighlightHeaven isnt doing all the work for videos
LA going down today Seattle 34-27 prediction from Texas 👌
@@chrislongleytx123 broncos over texans baby drew lock for super bowl mvp
Think its time to bring back the two bye weeks
Ginsen. sen I think that'd be an amazing idea especially with all these injuries to actual good players
And having an extra bye can probably help with Thursday night games so teams have more rest than just three days
And get rid of thursday night football on top of that
MrGNugget but if you’re giving them an extra bye week before Thursday night games there’s no need to get rid of them
Yeah make the preseason 3 games and give them a bye the week before they go on TNF, and another one whenever.
Ya just gotta love the annual week 17 playoff scenarios! Thanks, Elliot!
add the 2021-22 steelers to this list
No matter the sport, gotta love a good bit of final day drama...
2021 would make a great addition to this video
I’m a Cowboys fan, and the Eagles getting in this past year was crazy.
Super Bowl 53: Browns vs Bears
Sam B you wish
*Browns vs Giants
Sam B HELLLLLLL NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO
SlimeGuy NOOOOOOOOOOO BROWNS SUCK EVEN AGAINST A PE WE TEAM
Both eliminated
The raiders my god
They have a chance the Texans are favored to beat the titans the ravens are benching Lamar even then the ravens are still favored jags suck and raiders might pull of the upset
Hey anything can happen look at my Eagles last year they beat the Redskins and the Bears beat the Vikings and we got in
Wouldn't of mattered anyways Raiders lost haha
@@jesuscortez321 i kind of expected kirk cousins to lose to the bears. the bears had the division title and they were a good team. i dont know why peoplare shocked that the bears beat kirk cousins
@@dylanwu332 I dont think they were shocked I think they just kinda expected him to show up on the big time games on big time pressure and he still cant deliver until his 1st playoff win against the Saints
@@jesuscortez321 the 3rd seed is cursed
2006 season was crazy,& tragic for Denver. Jake Plummer led us to 13-3 in '05,& beating New England-Bradys 1st ever playoff loss. Pittsburgh killed us in AFC title game. But in '06 we were 7-2, up 24-7 mid 3rd vs a real good San Diego. Al Wilson gets hurt..LT runs crazy,& lose 35-27. 1 more at KC. 7-4, Shannahan replaces Plummer, with rookie Jay Cutler. I was fine with it then, mistake in hindsight.
All came down to that last game vs SF, on New Years Eve, as they said. 49ers had like 5 or 6 wins. I wasnt in my normal 3rd level seats, but sitting with friends, like 8 rows from the field. We had a promising 2nd year cb, & return guy-Darrent Williams of Oklahoma St. Big part of AFC title game team as a rookie,& thought would be an elite player soon. He had a very rough day, especially in their comeback. I was like 29,& still, drank like a fool at the games-8 years sober now. I yelled a lot of stuff, some at him. After the game it was dead quiet, but I screamed something, as he left the field. He had to hear, but didnt react. It wasnt anything vulgar or foul, but akin to "thanks for costing us the playoffs guy."
But whatever I said,& how pissed about the loss I was later that night, it instantly no longer mattered. When we heard he was shot to death, early New Years Day. Out with teamates/friends at some Denver club. Apparently, Brandon Marshall's (good wr-had like 22 catches in a game for us,& now on FS1, I think) cousin started shit with some gang members..who knows..showed em up in front of some chicks...whatever. But over some total bs, this man is dead. Made me feel pretty bad,& definitely put sports more in perspective. Kinda like last March, when the Pandemic cancelled sports for awhile.
I still remember that Cardinals game. I can still hear Greg Gumbel coming back from commercial break and saying that the Cardinals had recovered the onesides kick while showing the scoreboard. I got so excited and jumped up and down when that TD was scored.
3:21 the announcer has me dying!
Caleb Baker same
Anyone else here after the Steelers somehow snuck in?
Why are the bills making it such a long shot?
AC TEAM nate peterman
Seth Bowman oh damn tyrods not playing?
If the chargers win , it doesn’t matter if the bills win because the chargers hold the tie breaker because of the Nate Peterman game
tyler taele Not true. As was pointed out in the video, if BAL loses, then BUF’s in if they win. I tried the Playoff machine from ESPN and even if BUF, TEN, and LA win, if BAL loses, TEN and BUF are in and LA’s out.
Santana Moss true but Baltimore has too much to lose this game so i doubt they’ll lose
Best part of this video is the fact that Ryan Fitzpatrick was QB for bengals during the garner run v TB lol
Love the PS at the end
Where’s the 2013 Chargers? They needed to win, a Dolphins loss and ravens loss. Dolphins lost at home against the Geno Smith led jets and the ravens lost to the Bengals. Chargers beat the Chase Daniel led chiefs in SD on a blocked FG at the end. Later on the FG was said to supposed to have been penalized for loading everyone on one side of the line. Just crazy
Yeah they got snubbed
Thats typical BS when you are a cheifs fan... Ugh
@Nathan Anderson Oh please, you really think the fix was in for the freaking Chargers over the Steelers?
Where is the steelers in 2016 they traild the jets all season but in week 17 they beat browns and the jets lose to bills and steelers went to the playoffs
How is that not on the list
I HATE Narrated videos, but man this was a good ass video. Great music with a great narrator. Well done.
That 03' Cardinals knocking out the Vikings will always resonate with me lol. That upset was so shocking, at the time. And totally forgot the 08' Eagles needing all that help to get in, before waxing the Boys lol. Then made a run all the way to the NFC Championship, before losing a close one to the Cardinals. Not 1, but 2 wild card teams made the conference championship that year.
I thought the Cards won their division that year
1:55
Gotta love those plays ruined by Joe Buck lol.
Where was the enthusiasm lol
It's still baffles me how in 2014 the 7-8-1 panthers made the playoffs and the 9-7 chiefs didn't
Our division sucked that year. Nothing baffling about it
Chiefs Kingdom it baffles me how the chiefs are always one and done in the playoffs
Tom Brady Shady #WOAT#MaddenCursed#OldFART
Like the last time we were in the Wildcard?
Oh wait...
Chiefs Kingdom it’s two different conferences the standings were different
Edgar B. The NFC South matched up against the AFC North. Browns finished worst with 7-9 and the Panthers finished best with 7-8-1.
Sound like the announcer sounded like he wanted the cardinals to lose lol
He did thats paul allen a local broadcaster for the vikings
ArchmageJodah OK, makes more sense now that I know he's a local. I really dislike his style.
LeoMDK bruh, hes awesome
Yeah, it’s Paul Allen, the Vikings radio announcer..
6:34 that punt block was actually amazing.
My favorite week 17 do or die matchup was in 1997 between the Lions and Jets. Both teams were in a win and you're in lose and your through scenario. But what made it unique is they were playing for 2 different playoff spots since the Jets are in the AFC and the Lions are in the NFC. I've never seen that scenario before or since. That was also the game where Barry Sanders went over 2000 yards for the season.
Now you have to make a sequel to talk about how the dolphins beat the patriots allowing the chiefs to cruise to a Super Bowl
No, they cruised to the Super Bowl because they got to host Tennessee who upset Baltimore instead of having to go to Baltimore and play a seemingly better team💁💁💁
@@phillyeaglesforlife5127 we would’ve had to play Tennessee if the patriots didn’t lose
@@DabBat But how would that be the case if the Pats won, if they won Tennessee would've been eliminated, I'm saying that KC played Tennessee in the AFC Championship, an easier opponent than Baltimore
@@phillyeaglesforlife5127 who beat the ravens? In the regular season the chiefs did and in the postseason the titans did. The ravens were not a playoff team, and still would’ve lost to Kansas City
@@DabBat Yeah that makes sense
Someone was really wearing a Raiders jersey when it is Vikings @ Cardinals. He missed the flight probably
Jamarcus russell helped someone make the playoffs lmao
Bro I love this channel as much as I love foot ball A LOTTT
As for the 49ers/Broncos game: if the game ended in a tie, Denver actually would have gotten in, so Nedney’s winning kick had a lot more
Should update this with the Bills improbable chance of ending the drought
That 08 eagles team...
Josh That was our year. If only we got to Kurt more than 0 times in the second half, we win that game and maybe the Super Bowl.
*Foolish* Demon or if we could just stop fitz lol. That was ridiculous
Josh i wish yall would've won that game so we didn't have to feel that sting
Ya
It not only sucked for Eagles fans, but for some Steelers fans too. Because that was the closest we've been to a PA Super Bowl.
4:20 - wow beat drop synced with snap was amazing
Bills just got added to this list.
Who’s here after the patriots choked against the dolphins?
FaZe Enable me
@Survival you are correct
Santonio Holmes was clutch af
3:23. That Vikings Announcer was epic. You could feel the crush.
I was today years old when I realized that the narrater of these videos is that dude from good morning Football
The eagles just had a crazy week 17
So...this means...the Browns still have hope? 😁😁😁
ZhangtheGreat 😆😊😊
Stop
ZhangtheGreat Statistically yes, unless they complete their perfect season then they’ll go straight to the SB 😂
No no they dont
HAHAHAHAHA... wait you’re serious.
I love the extra segment about the Chiefs at the end.
These would make for some great what-if videos!
0:01: The og Helmet catch.
Well, time for more shenanigans in 2020 as 5 AFC teams are still playing for the last 4 playoff spots. Oh, and all of them have a 10-5 record.
They should make a new video add afc 2020 week 17 we've nevet seen a 5 way tie for a playoffs spot, this will be fun
What’s crazy is this video actually predicted the bills making the playoffs, it was posted 2 days before Sunday of week 17
The pain in the nos at 3:29 gets me laughing every time
Something tells me something incredible will happen tomorrow for the Wild Card spots
You can add 2021 Week 18 to the list...
One of the craziest scenarios that I remember very well was how the Packers won the division and got into the playoffs back in 2003 when Nate Poole made a game-winning touchdown catch with no time left on a 4th & 24 play and at that time, the force out rule was around so when that happened I knew it would hold up and that rule lasted until 2008. That is a day both Packers and Vikings fans will never forget. Perhaps the Vikings giving up a 4th & 24 play was an omen for the Packers because two weeks later in the divisional round, they gave up a 4th & 26 play to Freddie Mitchell which ended up costing them a victory against the Eagles and the chance to advance to the NFC Championship game against the Panthers. Still surreal to this day.
Who's here from the Raiders staying alive after week 16
Correction: Denver eliminated them.
thumbs up for the last line about the chiefs 😂 😂 😂
L M 😢😢😢
L M :/
Great to hear Madden and Summerall in this video. One of the best broadcasting pair there ever was.
I already watched this but i always come back
Steelers fans watching this in 2018.
Needing the Browns to win: too much to ask.
Raiders Week 17, 2019 Need
Win vs DEN
TEN loss vs HOU
PIT loss vs BAL
IND win vs JAX
To make the playoffs
If this video taught me anything, it’s that the Raiders still have a chance
Even if the raiders get in they going to get destroyed by the chiefs
good thing they didn't get in, titans made history
@@mbdg6810 how did they make history
@@ogreman-lll-957 they beat the number one seed and defending super bowl champs. It might not be significant in the league but its significant for their franchise.
@@mbdg6810 exactly not in league history but their own
I've had this video in my recommended for over a year but refused as a Vikings fan...I gave in
Nathan poole ik
Week 17 is the start of the time of year where fanbases will join forces in rooting on a team
Lol P.S. the chiefs got their doors blown off next week.. laughed so hard
Now you gotta add 2021 Steelers
They beat the Ravens. Colts lost to the Jaguars. And the Raiders/Chargers game didn't finish in a tie.
Thanks Eliot for that little tid bit at the end brings a tear to my eye ahh love watching the chiefs makes the playoffs then blow it all away the next game
SMDH
That Cowboys/Giants 1993 game had absolutely nothing to do with what the rest of the video was about. Lol.
Raiders, this could be you.
Nope not at all 😂
@@ChiefBlue4298 fitzmagic baby
Who’s here when the giants about to do something crazy
Eagles screwed them
2002 Browns: probably not the longest of longshots, but they went in to the final game 8-7 and having to beat Michael Vick and the Falcons and get help. They beat the Falcons, then had to wait for a favorable outcome in the inter-conference Jets vs. Packers game at 4:15. Thing is, they needed the JETS--the team in their own conference--to win, not the Packers. The tiebreakers were crazy, but they needed that, and they got that.
Not a long shot so much as the "man bites dog" situation where a team needs someone else in the conference to win in order to make it.
That long delayed zinger at the very end was Monty Python-esque.
2012 vikings. adrian peterson goes for over 2000 yards and the vikings get in the playoffs.
how in the world did you not include this game???
kyle smith exactly
What about the 7-9 sea hawks ?
Westox they won their division lmfao so not to crazy.
Westox how is that a crazy clinch they won their division
Westox not really fitting, the NFC West has been known for their trashy performances in that era
I’m thinking how 3-8-1 Panthers were able to get in the playoffs
Westox The Rams smothered them😊
Lol the ending was hilarious
As a ravens fan the bengals game made me cry tbh. Breaks my heart. And breaks my heart for the teams to loose
force out rule was the stupidest thing ever lol
Dakota F NOOOOOOO!
NOOOOOOO!
funny that it screwed the vikings thou LMFAOOO
@@lightyagami3492
The Vikings should have never been in that position to begin with. They lost 7 of 10 after starting 6-0 and five of the seven losses came against teams with losing records.
@@mgtowskeptic5201 i agree. Its still funny though
@@mgtowskeptic5201
Exactly.
Those old cardinals uniforms were nice. The current ones they got now are ugly😒
Stand your ground! Have you not seen the Jaguar and bengals jerseys? Those are hideous
Tom Brady Shady #WOAT#MaddenCursed#OldFART Yeah i agree.
Tom Brady Shady #WOAT#MaddenCursed#OldFART and the buccaneers
Gilbert v agree
Stand your ground! DON'T FOCUS on the Arizona Cardinals uniforms because that is NOT what determines Who WINS OR Who LOSES; The Overall Performance LITERALLY and PHYSICALLY on the field is what really matters.
The Uniforms are there just to stand out in a way of being fashionable...
I remember that Nathan Poole was given the key to the city in Green Bay. What a reward.
That Cardinals catch should be way more famous. How have I never seen that before?
This years Eagles playoff appearance should have made this list. It was nuts how they got in
paul mcdonald you do realize this video is a year old? Also that wasn’t as good as some of the stuff they put in
Let’s Go Bills! #BreakTheDrought
ConveriX Gaming Yep gotta win and we need some help
Imma Jets Fan but honestly even i feel bad for yall
Bills aren't going to make it it's going to be the ravens and chargers
I got hope let’s go
They might get in, but they won’t get far into playoffs though
I wish we still have these kind of commentators. These guys can hype!
that 2008 Eagles season was great! Also that was the year McNabb didn't know ties existed in football.
Who’s here before the 7-9 cowboys are going to make the playoffs
7-9 has happened before
Might make it
8-8, 7-8-1, and 7-9 teams have won divisions before, but if the Cowboys and Washington both lose, the 6-10 Giants make the playoffs.
