Sprint Can't Miss Plays: Week 6 - New England Patriots flea flicker

by MaPatsFan on Oct 20, 2009 9:44 PM EDT in New England Patriots News

You remember the play, right? 10:08 left in the second quarter, Patriots up 10-0, Tom Brady hands off to BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Law Firm stops short in the snow, flea flickers it back to Brady, and Tom Terrific hits Randy Moss in the endzone for a 40 yard TD bomb. A flea flicker? In the snow? Why not.

Head over to Sprint Can't Miss Plays and cast your vote for the best play. Clearly, it's the New England Patriots flea flicker, right?

I didn't check the website...

…but I have to tip my hat to Owen Daniel’s one handed touchdown, Sidney Rice’s downfield bomb while dragging a pass interfering defender and to Donald Driver’s one handed grab with a defender interfering on his back. Those were all ridiculously amazing.

not enough of a homer

I’m a Pats fan, and a Packers hater…but honestly, I think the 1-handed grab by Driver wins the prize. Amazing catch.

Those awesome one-handers defy team loyalty

I remember watching the replay of the Pats-Colts 2007 game, with the Colts announcers calling the plays. It was pretty funny listening to him call a Randy Moss touchdown in the most monotone voice possible, but when he made that full-stretch, one-handed leaping grab in mid-field, the announcers voice was incredulous and properly excited and respectful of the catch. It was the only thing the Patriots did that elicited that response.

Some plays – and players – just transcend their particular teams.

Keep the faith!
