for me, although i know all the implications of Redmonds play to get out of bounds, it HAS to be the pass to Brown. It instantly made me think of the Montana to Rice pass in the drive against the Bengals that set up the TD pass to Taylor. Also, i'll the never forget the exhiliration I felt to see that it was going to get us into Adam range. That was the play that won the Championship. I know the pass to Wiggins made it easier, but I was convinced Vinatieri could make it from 53.
By the way, the kick itself was beautiful. Right down the middle, as high as could be. It would have been good from 58.
But, like others, I was sure there was 2 seconds left. I didnt at first jump up and say "we won"! The whole time i was concentrating on, ok, is the snap good, is the hold good, is the kick good. As it went in im thinking, ok, are there any penalties?? If not,ok, now we have a kickoff to defend. Even when Summerall said it was over, even when everybody spilled the field, as I was SURE the Rams would protest and they would get a kickoff. It wasnt until I saw Martz walking off disgusted did it hit me IT'S OVER!!!!!!!!!
THEN, i let loose!!!!
But I could watch that Brady to Brown pass all day. Perfect, in stride, Now I knew Brady was our Montana.
