[QUOTE="TJV, post: 557511, member: 4300"] I thought I was stretching the OP’s question, “What is [B]the[/B] play…” by listing three and now you tell me three wasn’t enough! :D And while I neglected to pick a play from the era I refer to as “The Dark Ages” (yours is a fine choice IMO), I did not miss a single game of it. BTW, thank you for using “ThxJack” instead of “Jack”. It’s not a big deal but I am attempting to honor Vainisi – and my name isn’t Jack. There certainly were some great moments and plays from Super Bowl XLV: - Jordy making up for missing a TD pass on the opening drive by catching the next one for the first score of the game. - Howard Green pressuring the QB in the end zone which led to Collins great INT return for a TD. - Greene’s admonition and Clay’s instincts which led to the forced fumble as you mentioned. (That made up for Brett Swain’s dropping a pass which would have converted a 3rd and 10 deep in Packers territory.) Another memory from that game (shown afterwards) was Jennings imploring coaches and Rodgers on the sidelines saying the Steelers can’t cover a route going to the back corner of the EZ. He was so adamant about it he said something like, ‘send anyone’ on that route so they didn't think he just wanted the ball. With about 12 minutes left in the game he scored a TD on that route and was wide open. Rodgers play was incredible in that game and his stats should have been even better. Jordy dropped three passes, including what probably would have been 50 yard TD and Jones dropped what could have been a 75 yard TD. In McGinn’s review of the game he says Rodgers dart to Jennings on the 21-yard TD was in the air for .85 seconds (BTW, it was safety Ryan Clark who nearly got to it - Polamalu delivered a huge hit on Jennings as he was catching the ball). And the critical 31-yarder to Jennings for the first down - barely touched – was in the air for 1.05 seconds. [/QUOTE]
