On this day in 1972:

The most unbelievable thing about this is it was on December 23rd and it was a playoff game. Seasons are too long now.

We are so back.

John Madden was still angry about this game a half-century later. Will never be anything like it ever again.

Bradshaw to Tatum's helmet to Franco Harris. A Hail Mary became the Immaculate Reception. It may very well be the greatest play in NFL history. It is certainly in the running.

Imagine being a Raiders fan watching the game and for 2 or 3 seconds celebrating until Franco Harris comes zooming from out of frame. 😂

RIP Franco. The most unforgettable play in league history.

Peak NFL. Declined to the point where I no longer even miss it. I'd rather watch old NFL films games that woke crap.

‘man I just turned it loose’ - Terry Bradshaw - who held the national high school record for longest javelin toss

That was one immaculate reception!!

The ball hit the turf
