That one play that always stands in your mind (in person)

It doesn't have to be a playoff game or a winning season.

Mine was Kevin Greene's last sack. I believe it was against New Orleans and we were running up the score on them. Crazy rules in that season (Panthers, Dallas and Packers were in it until the end for the last wild card spot and the point total was determining the final spot)

We scored so many points that season. Gill Haskell was a genius

I was at Baghdad Airport, we were stuck for a night because of fog. We were returning home after a year during OIF III. Panthers and Giants were on. These people had no clue what Smitty and Peppers and Jake were all about. The shock and horror in their face after that playoff victory in '06 made up for the fact that I had to spend one more shity night in that armpit of the civilization.

Mine was Smitty's amazing catch & run against the Cheifs. It was had to tell what happened, b/c he looked 'tackled' initially, but he came riding out of the sunset & went for a TD. We were all like "What the f_ _ _" just happened! Of course the stands went wild at that point.

I'd have a hard time to narrow it to just one. Some of the most memorable for me include the Dallas game when Michael Irvin got pounded and got up woozy with turf stuck in his grill, or when Deion Sanders got hit so hard they carted him off on a golf cart with his eyes rolled back in his head. On the offensive side, I guess maybe the first touchdown pass Jake threw in that first game he came into in relief of Peete, or Steve Beurelein's QB keeper to score and beat Green Bay.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
