Still this one. Chills.



Sounded like a home game in Miami - wow!
 
2001 was a magical season.

Incredible! When I saw the title of the thread that's the one I thought of. I remember reading that a Miami DB said that he watched hours and hours of film on Brown and he never went that far downfield. Well, he did that time.

That was the game when the refs missed badly on a Miami pass play and that set up the Fins for a makeable game winning FG at the end of the game. They missed.

Brady was 6-0 at the time in OT games. That's something I had forgotten.

Not the longest. Not the most meaningful. Not even the best. But its the one to me encapsulates brady. Loved the accuracy on the run. Threaded this ball

TD pass to Mitchell in SF


 
I was at that game in Miami. For me, that is easily the first/best touchdown that comes to mind.

Unbearable heat and humidity. Lots of people in the stands were having dificulty, even if they moved to a shaded area. The Patriots were without several key players on defense. A loss would have dropped the Pats to 4-3 a game behind Miami, and into a tie with Buffalo. The Patriots had already lost to the Bills in the week one "They Hate Their Coach Game", and looked stagnant in a loss to Steve Spurrier and Washington a few weeks earlier.

Ricky Williams and Randy McMichael both had big days for the Dolphins; a bit too much for the undermanned Pats defense. Fortunately the Marlins' infield helped the Patriots twice.

I was up more than half way, but I had a perfect view of the entire play. Troy caught the ball on my side of the field, in a straight line directly below where we were sitting. Fantastic, surreal finish to the game.




If I had to pick another I would say the first Brady-to-Moss touchdown, in the second half of the week one 2007 game at the Jets. It was like watching a Pop Warner game, except one player (Moss) should have been playing in a league two levels higher than anybody else on the field. If I recall correctly Moss hadn't played any preseason games due to a hamstring issue, so there were still plenty of doubts about his abilities. No questions after that play.

I'll retweet both of those TDs as #1 and #1a.
 
I love the Miami one as well. This deserves serious merit for best of the rest because of who it was against.
