I can't think of a worse play by a defender in a big situation Moore wasn't playing deep enough to begin with. But even then Flacco's throw had enough air on that Moore had time to recover, yet he stopped short because he completely misjudged the ball.Although it won't be remember as such, it wasn't far off of Bill Buckner or Chris Webber. Leon Lett had the fumble in the Super bowl, but the game was over. Am I missing some other plays on this level?
The Chargers CB that intercepted Brady and all he had to do was fall down and the Chargers go to the SB. But he decided he needed a run back for some reason and fumbled.
This occurred in the divisional playoff game, and there was a decent amount of time left in the 4th quarter still (5-ish minutes?). A touchdown return seals the game so its not as bad a mistake as Moore's. It was brutal though.
I looked it up, and you were right- 6 and a half minutes left to play in that one. Funny how the mind changes details around to fit the narrative better-
Funny how you say that people will see what they want to see...and yet you claim Fox is great for the Broncos. Hilarious.
I know that John Fox took over the worst Broncos team I have ever seen. I know that this year, he presided over the best Broncos squad I've seen since 1998, and easily one of the ten best Broncos teams of all time (I'd say pretty comfortably one of the five best). The only funny thing is how some people can see a coach take a team from its worst iteration in history to one of its best iterations in history in just two short years, and describe that coach in any manner other than "great for the Broncos". Yeah, Fox is great for the Broncos. Phenomenal. Unbelievable. His teams have exceeded even my wildest expectations. Any fan who wants to throw all that away because they disagree with a handful of calls in a double overtime game is a fan who, quite frankly, I'm really glad has absolutely no say in any meaningful decision-making processes at Dove Valley. Seriously, you sound like those Pittsburgh fans who wanted Rooney to can Cowher in the early 2000s. Or worse, one of those Chargers fans who was excited when Norv was hired because, hey, at least he wasn't Marty.
