Paul Allen's guttural "NO!" in that Cardinals walkoff will always be iconic. His call of the Minneapolis miracle is just as such. He's such a good announcer.
Even when my Packers have a bad year. Paul Allen's adventual freak out cheers me up.
I actually clicked on this video because I remember that. That was the infamous year that the Vikings started out 6-2 and then finished 8-8 and then got demoralized on the final play of the last game of the season with the Cardinals coming back. “The Cardinals have knocked the Vikings out of the playoffs” is one of the greats lines by a sportscaster in tv history
Had the force out rule been changed sooner that wouldn’t have been a catch… just our luck
Brett Favre goes back to pass, he PUMPS. Now he FIRES IT OVER THE MIDDLE i n t e r c e p t e d, i can't believe what i'm seeing right now.
THIS IS NOT DETROIT MAN THIS IS THE SUPER BOWL‼️‼️
paul allens call from 2003 lives in my head rent free
Good 😂
“THE CARDINALS HAVE KNOCKED THE VIKINGS OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS!”
@@TheGameCube64GuyNOOOOO …………NnnnOoOoOOO 😂😂
It’s a classic for right and wrong reasons 😂
“Nice. Impressive. Let’s hear Paul Allen’s call.”
Ugh! I'm not even a Saints fan and STILL that Carney missed extra point is such a gut punch. After that INCREDIBLE "Cal-Stanford-esque" play for a 75 yard TD to try and send it to OT. This was before they moved extra points back to the 15 yard line like they are now. Carney must still have nightmares about that one.
River City Relay
Yes and no. IIRC even if Carney made the XP and the Saints won in the ensuing OT they were still screwed because Dallas and Seattle won their final games and clinched.
those kind of plays will eat at him but after your team just made the play of the century and then you miss? scarred for forever lol
@@johnathanpatrick6118that’s what I thought. Didn’t the cardinals game help screw is too with the “push out”
@@Ro1o its carneys billy squier rock metonight video moment its all he will be remembered for even though he had decent career
These teams forgot the one rule “Don’t. Get. Eliminated.”
A fellow man of culture I see
Ooooo another man of culture
Right you are, Ken...I mean, Tree.

Is that a UrinatingTree reference?
The Chargers calling a timeout was the Chargers being the Chargers.
least Brandon Staley is fired so maybe they will turn it around?
Chargers: Pain
Yea that's crazy. It really looked like raiders would just run out the clock. Imagine Steelers missing playoffs after the tie. Or chargers/raiders would've got in with the tie. And then raiders decided to go for win and chargers got out. Really nuts
Yep.... Raiders were just going to let that run out and both get into the playoffs, but Staley gotta Staley....
4:23 That guy was so nice to go over and comfort that Dolphins player :(
3:23 Just like his predecessor Favre, the last pass of Aaron Rodgers as a Packer is an interception.
Glad they included positive Lions history on here.
Always fun to see the greats lose every once in a while
That Arizona-Minnesota finish changed NFL history. If The Vikings win Arizona gets The No. 1 pick not San Diego & Eli Manning goes to The Cardinals perhaps.
Eli still could have refused to play for arizona though
Wow.. Eli throwing to Boldin but where does Larry Fitzgerald end up?!?
@@aceassn716That's the real question i think. Who would of had the 3rd pick in the draft?
@@logantiller2864 Yeah, Eli would have still gone crying to daddy Archie to have the Cardinals not draft him
@@logantiller2864and he probably would have. Cardinals were an absolute dumpster fire in the early 2000s.
The chargers not going for the tie and Staley calling that TO should have been a massive red flag
Staley calling a TO was the dumbest call to do especially since the Raiders were going to let the time run out
Remember seeing that last one in person. I’m not a Steelers fan but I was at the exact goal line I’ve never heard a stadium be so loud one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard
1993 may have been the craziest Week 18/Final Sunday of all time. Giants-Cowboys for The NFC East & HFA, Green Bay-Detroit for The NFC Central & host for WC weekend. 4 teams alive for 2 spots in the AFC. Miami getting eliminated in OT in New England after being 9-2. The Broncos & Raiders in a OT shootout where Raiders clinch a spot & last but not least Jets-Oilers where Buddy Ryan punches Kevin Gilbride in a 24-0 shut out that enables The Steelers to sneak in to the playoffs
Now that there are 27 play off s as spots nothing is as good.
@@Spanner249what?
Week 17 you mean lol
@@Spanner249There are 14 lol, which isn’t much more than the 12 they had back then.
@@TheSloppyjoejr There were actually 18 weeks in 1993, every team played 16 games but had an extra bye week.
That missed PAT by Carney is a heartbreaker and I'm sure I'm the 100th person to say this, but Carney is a terrific person with a huge stat-sheet. It sucks that this is the sort of thing he will be remembered for.
NOOOOOOOOOOOoo hahaha
@@trentvlak Controversial statement incoming, but IMHO the thing that makes that call so iconic is the timing between the muted, almost thrown-away "...an'he missed it" with the other announcer shouting "NOOOOOOO" over the top of the end. Something about that combination just crackles with an energy that can't be planned in advance.
Had no idea that the Cardinals had two near playoff-berths in the 80s. That game vs Washington looked wild! This is why I love this channel. Always seeing new NFL clips I had no clue about.
Just prior to the Moseley FG, Washington was at 3rd and 18 and Art Monk made a 19 yard catch to get the first down. This is the same game in which he broke the single season catches record (at the time) with 106. He came up big with 11 catches for 136 yards and 2 TDs.
Cardinals made the playoffs in 1982 The season where a strike interrupted everything resulting in a 9-game season & a 16-team playoff format The Cardinals - then in St Louis - played up in Green Bay. They got stomped The next time the Cardinals would make the playoffs would be in 1998, 11 years after moving to Phoenix They would upset the Cowboys in the Wild Card Round. It was the Cardinals first playoff win in 51 years The Cardinals hadn’t won at Green Bay since 1949 when they were in Chicago. That streak was broken in 2018. Mike McCarthy was fired after that game
@@cardboardbelt Did you hear that 84 crowd?!!! That’s what missing in today’s game
There was nothing better than Madden and Summerall at RFK Stadium in the 80's
they loved redskins/cowboys games back then. They were a great announcing tandem
Flacco while not having his best years was both unbelievable in the second half’s of 2016 and 2017 and had to utter defensive collapses in those years. Without those defensive collapses the ravens probably would have never drafted Jackson.
then flacco wouldn’t be with the browns today 😳
What are you talking about?? He won a road playoff game every year for his first five seasons!! Including a SUPERBOWL MVP
@@JSalonsky Won a playoff game every yr, but 2011 was the only time where the Ravens didn't get a road playoff win. However, they did get their first home playoff win since 2000.
It's absolutely amazing the Bengals saved the Bills season that really got them in the playoffs in 2017 0:27
Right? Talk about a wing and a prayer. The Bills did their part when they won in Miami. I thought, we came a long way to finish 9-7 and I was looking forward to 2018 and beyond. Then I literally shit my pants when I found out later that the Bengals upset the Ravens to put the Bills in the playoffs (first time since '99). All of Western New York was in a happy riot. Especially in Buffalo.
@@effend446Bills fans also donated to Andy Dalton and Tyler Boyd’s charities too
Lol I remember the media showing the bills getting all hyped reacting to the ending of that game
The missed kick by Carney in 2003 has to be one of the most painful missed PATs in the history of football, if not THE most
Thank you for showing that bengals game first. We buffalo folk will never forget that play to send us to the playoffs!
0:53 "TOUCHDOWN!! NO!!!!! NOOOOO!"
YESSSSSS 😂😂
Yeah
@@kevinuchiha6830 Daddy, no!
Watching that Chargers vs. Raiders game at the end of the 2021 season was so surreal!
Down to this day, I still can’t believe Chris Conte didn’t cover the middle of the field 🤦🏿♂️
The only reason I can think of as t why he didn’t cover his high zone is because it was an inverted high cover 2 where the corner on Cobb takes the deep 2. Still the worst play I’ve ever witnessed as a Bears fan along with the Grossman pick 6 in the Super Bowl and the Double Doink
That Made No Sense .
Haunts me still
He sold
Then he got trucked by Vance McDonald on MNF!!
The 2003 Saints missed XP was brutal. But that week they needed someone else to lose and by the time this play happened, the other team had won and the Saints were eliminated regardless. It’s the only thing I can console myself with when I see this play.
I actually seen the Saints-Jaguars game while living in New Orleans, and you would not believe the cheers on the touchdown play...... And then the course of boos when Carney missed the extra point. That loss was brutal.
Just prior to the Moseley FG against the Cardinals in 1984, Washington was at 3rd and 18 and Art Monk made a 19 yard catch to get the first down. This is the same game in which he broke the single season catches record (at the time) with 106. He came up big with 11 catches for 136 yards and 2 TDs.
Thank You, NFL Throwback, for putting the year on the plays.
"Forced-out touchdown" thank god that's not a rule anymore
the vikings would’ve made the playoffs in 2003 if that rule was there back then 😭
Great topic for a video. A few that could of been included that come to mind: 1977 - Colts over Patriots. NE blows a 18 pt 2nd half lead. 1979 - Cowboys over Redskins. The Roger Staubach double comeback. 1981 - Buccaneers over Lions. A late defensive TD costs the Lions the division in a winner take all finale. 1983 - Bears over Packers. A last minute FG sends GB home and gets Bart Starr fired. 1988 - Seahawks over Raiders. In a winner take all for the division title, Seattle holds on in a shoot out. 2011, '12, '13 Cowboys - Three straight Dallas losses to each of their NFC East rivals. Btw, I appreciate you including the year with the clip. Sometimes you don't know the game and your curious to look up more into it.
In that '79 Cowboys/Skins game the Skins went from the #1 seed in the NFC to missing out on the playoffs altogether because of Tony Hill's late touchdown.
@@tombriggs9259 That and the Bears running up the score on the Cardinals
That 2011-13 period was rough for Dallas fans I still remember watching each Sunday night game disappointed by the result that 2012 matchup with a hobbled RG3 still hurts to this day
New England in that 1977 winner-takes-all i.e. the AFC East vs. Colts kind of got screwed earlier in the game, IIRC, a Baltimore Colts player fumbled the ball before going down, video replays clearly showed he did when Colts were driving to close Pats lead in the game. Well, the refs didnt see the fumble, Baltimore kept possession and scored a TD and eventually used the momentum to get back into the game and win a wild, close one. Strangely enough, 1977 would end up being the last really great year for the old Colts in Baltimore as they would lose a week later in another legendary NFL post-season classic vs. Oakland, in 2OT, "Ghost to the Post" catch. Those mid-late 70's-mid-80's Patriots teams had some really good, potent and possibly SB-winning talent on their roster and despite only one losing season (1981), from 1976-1988, New England ended up having a lot of winning seasons, but relatively few postseason berths. Then there's Week 17 2020 matchup between playoff-bound Buffalo and 10-5 Miami where Dolphins' got their asses kicked in Buffalo and finished with a 10-6 record but out of the playoffs. 1973 Atlanta Falcons having a 8-3 record with 3 weeks remaining in the regular-season, having pulled off a major upset against would-be undefeated Vikings on MNF, and then Norm Van Brocklin's Falcons lost 2 out of their last 3 games to finish second in the old NFC West, 9-5, but out of the playoffs. Ironically, that year's finish was the best record in Falcons history up until that point (and would remain that way until 1980). 1991 Eagles ended up at 10-6, but their last real chance at making the post-season that year was lost when they lost a Week 15 home game vs. Cowboys. Philadelphia did regroup, to their credit, and handily defeated New York Giants in the final week, but due to complex tiebreaker scenarios with Atlanta, the Eagles watched the playoffs from their homes in 1991.
@@davidroberts7282 1974 would finally be the year the Falcons get to the playoffs… right?
First time learning about the force out rule because of that Cardinals touchdown, cant imagine if that was still a rule today
No, it isn’t. I think it was changed in 2008.
The force-out rule was always horrible. I screamed for years how it only punished the defense for doing their job, and it required the refs to make an impossible subjective judgment. Thankfully they changed the rule years ago.
Andy dalton is a bills legend despite not ever playing for them.
I'll forever remember that Tyler Boyd touchdown that ended my bills playoff drought.
That 2003 game between New Orleans and Jacksonville, other results that weekend meant Carney's missed extra point didn't matter in the end
That's a relief because otherwise it would have been beyond brutal.
The cardinals eliminating the vikings was insane lol prolly the worst one
TOUCHDOWN!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
@@kojiattwood THE VIKINGS ARE OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS!
@@mjwatts1983Vikings hear that a lot. Even when they make the playoffs.
2003 AZ: We can win the Tank Bowl or add another chapter to the Vikings’ tortured history
As an Packers Fan The 4th and 8 Dragger Game is an instant Classic
I went 16-0 in my football picks that week due to that insane finish
Agreed. Especially when it gets Joe Buck excited.
Saved the best for last. I remember watching the Immaculate extension live AB looked to be short at first but he's AB 💯
Good thing AB was left-handed. If he was carrying the ball with his right hand. He doesn't get it over the goal line. Blatant facemask on the ball carrier in the middle of the field, no call. Lol
The Paul Allen call from 2003 is still used on KFAN (his station) button bars all these years later. Epic!
Damn I didn't realize New Orleans Saints had two near playoff-berths in back to back seasons 2002 game losing INT against Carolina Panthers and the river city relay in 2003 on a missed extra point against Jacksonville Jaguars
That 03 Cardinals play has some extra context if you consider that a loss gives them the 2 pick, where bust Rob Gallery went, instead of their greatest player Larry Fitzgerald who went at 3. Not saying they'd have picked differnt but not saying they wouldn't.
No, a loss would have given them the #1 pick.
Who's here after the Tyler Goodson drop?
8:47 The Lions would promptly hire Matt Millen as GM after this kick. _The rest would be history._
And look how far the Lions have come since then!
In my opinion, 4th and 8 is the most traumatic play as a bears fan. As a young 4th grader back then, I wanted to beat Green Bay so bad and go to the playoffs. It is worse than double doink in my opinion because of the opponent.
Well it also took the Bears 5 years to recover from that loss as they had an 8 year playoff drought and then they never really recovered after the double drink either outside of the 2020 season where they got lucky to make the playoffs that year due to Arizona collapsing
Isn't losing to GB in the NFC Championship on your home turf worse? I mean to see your bitter rivals lift the George Halas trophy as the 6th seeded team and then go on to win the Super Bowl seems worse to me.
@@simplemanchannel3318I was a young kindergartener/1st grader then. Honestly, i didn’t feel as bad with that loss, and felt Green Bay deserved to beat Pittsburgh. Though I would say, that nfc championship was the first time I watched a football game intently, and payed attention to things like yards to 1st down and punting, which both sides did that game.
@@simplemanchannel3318That was a day I wish I could forget.
That game yesterday was awesome!!
As a die-hard Cincinnati Bengals who's going through pain and suffering right now as always, that first clip kinds brightens my mood a little bit but mot much at all but then to have the clip on Santonio Holmes scoring the touchdown later in the video to eliminate my Cincinnati Bengals out of the playoffs just makes me feel even more miserable
Eliminated a foe and allowed another team that tends to be a laughing stock(trust me, we both feel the same pain lol) to get in. Not every day two teams that usually are the punching bag can be the biggest storylines on the week.
We swept y'all this year and will be going to the playoffs. Nice to have a defense that doesn't give up GW TDs with 50 seconds left.
I feel your pain man
You are a die-hard bengal tiger from Cincinnati?
@@ninetailedfox579121 I been a Cincinnati Bengals fan since I was born in 2004
THERE ARE VIKINGS CRYING ON THE FIELD
The 2003 NFL season sure had wild endings.
Santonio Holmes was criminally underrated. I went to Jon Carney's kicking camp as a kid. Charity thing in the early 90s. He was cool as hell, for a kicker, who also looked like an accountant.
Marvelous Video 📸 NFL Throwback Keep Up The Great Work

That Bengals play knocked out Baltimore & sent Buffalo to the postseason.
And bc of that play ravens were able to get Lamar Jackson.

Thanks for including that Joe Berry defensive master class against the Lions.

-immediately adds the Colts 4th down dropped pass to video
No way they let Carney on the plane-ride home
On that missed XP, the Saints needed help even if they had won that game, and the help did not materialize. It's a dramatic play that ends in heartbreaking fashion, but the Saints would have been eliminated anyway even if they had won that game.
Much thanks for posting this video!
I actually clicked on this video because I remember the Vikings-Cardinals game. That was the infamous year that the Vikings started out 6-2 and then finished 8-8 and then got demoralized on the final play of the last game of the season with the Cardinals coming back. “The Cardinals have knocked the Vikings out of the playoffs” is one of the greats lines by a sportscaster in tv history
"TOUCHDOWN!!! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Is so iconic!!
He sounds like he's just watched his child get run over by a speeding Hummer
I was there for the Bears-Packers game. That was the pinnacle of the awful defense Chicago had that year.
Happy New Year To You TCodes
Awful? It wasn’t that bad
1:03 “THERE ARE MINNESOTA VIKINGS CRYING ON THE FIELD”
I remember baltimore vs Cincinnati very well I was at my grandparents house and only 2 years earlier lost my mom so I was still recovering but I told my grandpa I hope Cincinnati wins so buffalo gets in and it was a very memorable experience and game for me
I was at the 2017 Bengals @ Ravens game. Still the coldest I’ve ever been in my life. Almost caught frost bite
12:08 AB was just different breed
That ab slant is a work of art best receiver in the 2010s
Greg Papa's (Raider Radio) call in the '99 finale should've been used instead of CBS - "The Oakland Raiders.......have knocked out......the Kansas City Chiefs!"
At 6:44, as the Jets are setting up their winning field goal, it appears someone throws a baseball onto the field to try to prevent the field goal. It has no effect on the game, but that is similar to the 1985 49ers-Broncos game.
0:10 this play sent Buffalo into a frenzy. Also, Bills fans donated 442K in $17 amounts to the Andy Dalton Foundation
1984: The Bengals beat the Bills earlier in the day to finish 8-8 (they had an 8-3 finish after an 0-5 start). If the Steelers lose that afternoon to the Raiders, they win the division. However, Donnie Shell seals the game with an INT, and the Steelers win the Central and end up going all the way to the AFC Title Game (losing to Miami). 1986: Albert Lewis's INT against Pittsburgh's Mark Malone seals a playoff berth for the Chiefs, and it all but eliminates the Bengals (they were eliminated the next night by the Pats when they beat Miami to wrap up the AFC East). 1987: That Dallas win may have saved their future. If the Cardinals won, they eliminate the Vikings (and end up losing to NO in the WC game, in my opinion). Now, fast forward to 1989. Without that playoff run, do the Vikes feel squirly enough to trade the farm for Walker? Maybe not.
Thumbs up for NFL throwback. Such great content.✌️🇺🇲
I'm a Colts fan on January 6, 2024 and this literally just got recommended to me as soon as I open the app
As a Green Bay fan that call in the Vikings game was magical 😂 dude i was like 13-14 when that happened and i could not belive what i just watched. The 2003 season will always be one of my favorite of all time.
Rodgers to Cobb will never get old
I remember riding home from my grandparents house listening to that Paul Allen call in 2003, literally shattered my heart. My dad pulled to the side of the road and we sat in silence and disbelief for a couple of minutes.
I was at the Cardinals game when I had season tix..incredible play!
I'll never forget the Saints 2003 missed field goal. It's actually funny to watch now though
That game is so memorable to me cause I just happened to be watching it live as an 8 year old non Saints fan. First wild ending to a football game I witnessed and I was hooked ever since lol.
@@Thrashman-ye4cf I think I was like 14. My whole family was watching. My aunt was like, how could they do all that then miss the field goal!? Lol
Gonna have to reupload this one with the colts play lmao
12:15 "And the Ravens have been eliminated from playoff consideration. Merry Christmas :)"
The "pushed out" rule was so lame lol
Actually that call makes sense
10:05 you should add 2011 raiders chargers game
Love the vids!
Shoutout Tyler Goodson - a Texans fan
I remember that Jacksonville/New Orleans tilt too. I remember them saying that Carney hadn”t missed a PAT in three years.
Add Tyler Goodson's drop vs the Texans in 2024
Cardinals eliminating the Vikes never gets old. SKOL That Signed Saints
As a Packers fan, this puts a smile on my face

It feels like the River City Relay is in 90% of the videos this channel uploads lol.
1:42 never seen the football kicked like that 😂
Titans got their revenge against the Jags today :D
"There are Minnesota Vikings crying on the field" should be much more iconic lol

That 95 Oakland team was solid, Hostetler being injured definitely slowed us down! Side note Anthony Smith was clearly up to no good during that season💯 If you go look up Dallas @ Oakland that season John Madden mentions Anthony Smith being mia that week and had just showed up minutes before the game. Makes you wonder 🤔 either way RIP to his victims 🙏🏽
When you talk about a play that eliminates a team from the playoffs you think 2003 Vikings at Cardinals hearing it from Paul Allen saying Nooooo Nooooo it's one of the best if not one of the greatest heartbreak devastating travesty of calls in not only in the history of the Vikings but in NFL's History too 0:03
I remember that first play. I was like damn ravens oof 😮
So many of these involved the Cardinals. Crazy.
You missed 1983 Week 16 Rams at my Saints. That one hurt the most. It would've been my Saints 1st winning season and playoff berth.
Here after the Colts ruined their chances against the Texans
6:30 and 6:47 Marty Glickman of NY Jets radio on the call
Kyle Orton throwing an interception to the Eagles ending the Cowboys playoff hopes in 2013
And Romo doing likewise the year before in Washington.
Holding call on Alex Barron the play before.. it was a td pass to Demarco Murray Next play Int, see ya next season
It’s crazy remembering how many of these led to superbowl runs.
7:20 never forget: Rodgers to Cobb on 4th & 8
As a Packers fan, my favorite sound is my kids laughing. My second favorite is Paul Allen's NO!!!
NFL Throwback really triggered my PTSD as a Ravens fan with Tyler Boyd and Antonio Brown. Christmas and New Year's Eve completely RUINED by division rivals in back to back years
Same exact score too. 31-27
I instantly thought of the bills vs jets game.
That 2013 loss to the Packers has been the most painful one as a Bears fan. And we've witnessed a shit ton of losses to the Packers. 😢
