What are some of the greatest plays that happened against teams you are a fan of?

I'd say for the sake of making these meaningful it should be a game changing play and not some inconsequential play in a blow out.

For me I think it has to be beast quake. Hated if when it happened but as the years pass sometimes you just have to tip your hat and admit it was a great play.

Cam Newton had a pretty ridiculous run against LSU that is memorable in the same fashion.

TJ Yeldon screen pass that won the game for Bama in the final minute in 2012

Game 6th WS David Freese with ice in his veins twice to take down the Rangers when they were a strike away from winning it all.

Steve Garvey hits outside fastball from Cubs reliever Lee Smith over right field wall and forces game 5 that Cubs lose in San Diego. Pitching coaches told Cubs pitchers NOT to throw outside and low to Steve Garvey so he can extend his arms. Smith thought differently

Yes the Minnesota Miracle was something at the time but it ended up meaning nothing in the grand scheme of things
Minnesota got crushed the next week, as likely the Saints would have also
It's B roll in the pantheon of great NFL plays

How about Carney missing the FG after the Jacksonville lateral play? That always shows up in most ridiculous plays

The sound of ball meeting bat was one of the most awful sounds I have ever heard, followed by the silence of the crowd.

I remember exactly where I was when I watched this, which is surprising because I was pretty drunk at the time.

The amazing pass break up that Robey-Coleman had on Lewis in the 2018 NFC championship game.

Bo Nix crazy 4th down scramble and then TD in the 2021 Auburn game.

I was in the drive thru line at Popeyes listening on the radio. That was a wild minute

Still salty about this shite…more-so the Fisher shot.

I’ll add an interesting one.

As an Indians (Guardians) fan, I’ve seen my team lose two WS Game 7 extra-inning games. I guess for 1997 against the Marlins, it would be Tony Fernandez blowing a double play ball or Edgar Renteria’s liner off of Charles Nagy’s glove.

Oddly enough, the most memorable play of the 2016 World Series was Rajai Davis hitting a game tying home run off of Aroldis Chapman in the 8th…and they still lost.

What I remember most is the replay showing Andy Petitt in the dugout next to Roger Clemens slowly mouthing the words “Oh my God” while watching the flight of the ball
