I don't think Cardinals fans should ever bring that up around other Cards fans. Its too painful.

1. Dwight Clark. "The Catch"
2. Franco Harris. Immaculate reception.
3. Jack Tatum's hit on Daryl Stingly that paralyzed him.
4. Mike Utley. Paralysis.
5. The Cleveland DT hit in the eye by the bean bag.
6. The ******* Cowpuke DT who touched the ball after the blocked FG in the snow playoff game against Miami.
7. The Buffalo FG kicker who missed the FG that should have beaten the Giants.

That made me cry.

Scott Norwood #2

He was a pretty good kicker too. (not great though)

 

[SECTION 11]

Here's a college one...

LeVar Arrington stuffing a fourth and one by diving over both the defensive and offensive lines and hammering whoever that was in the backfield. Didn't even get a running start, just dove.
He's a free agent next year.....

5 = Orlando Brown
6 = Leon Lett
7 = Scott Norwood

 

[Rivercard]

Aneas Williams returning a fumble for an NFL record 106 yards. Maybe not a career maker but it stands out to me.

I think that was Leon Lett? As in: "Lett" the ball go! Don't touch it!
