Not So Fastforum_veteranOPFor the second consecutive season, the Miami Dolphins had the play of the year in the NFL.
"Mountaineer Shot" was announced Saturday at the Bridgestone Clutch Performance Play of the Year at NFL Honors.
As all Dolphins fans know, "Mountaineer Shot" was the name of the play that resulted in punter Matt Haack throwing a touchdown pass to kicker Jason Sanders — the first time in NFL history a true punter had thrown a touchdown pass to a kicker.
"It means a lot," Haack said Saturday. "It's not every day a punter and a kicker get to be a part of something like that. It's just special for the organization, for us and for the team and for all the fans, really, to have that memory."
KeyFinforum_veteranVery cool! Not sure how that was the play of the year, but it was definitely fun to watch live.
Winning football games at any level comes down to winning in the trenches.
Deus ex dolphinforum_veteranI'd never really seen anything like it before, so just being unique helped make it the play of the year. Plus the flawless execution. Philly had no clue what was going on, which is the sign of a great play.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
