Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 16 Posted January 16 There were a number of plays that I think qualify for the “play of the game”— i.e., without it, the game could have gone the other way. Elam pick, Josh Allen 4th down sneak conversion, Shakir TD, etc. what do you got? Quote
Simstim Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Whilst it could be argued that a few other moments were possibly more important, for sheer enjoyment, it's one of two for me. The Josh 52 yard run or the Shakir TD. The run was monstrous, and fun, so I'm giving it to that 5 2 1 Quote
Southern_Bills Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Shakir TD imo because of the timing of it. 4 2 Quote
Logic Posted January 16 Posted January 16 (edited) The three you mentioned are the biggest candidates, but...the Elam pick wins it for me. Not only did it keep 7 off the board for the Steelers, I think it was also a huge confidence builder for Elam. A turning point in his day. He was getting absolutely picked on on that drive, and rather than "throw it to whoever Elam's covering" being the edict of the day for the remainder of the game, Kaiir said "I can do this", and acquitted himself reasonably well the rest of the game. Massive play at a huge moment in the game. Edited January 16 by Logic 13 1 Quote
TFBillsfan Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Shakir’s TD run to extend the lead. That broken tackle was on their stud safety. 3 1 Quote
H2o Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Offense, the Shakir TD. Defense, the Elam INT in the endzone. 4 Quote
Wizard Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The play of the game goes to the 12th man. The articles I read, things I heard on radio, and broadcast of the game, hats off to my city of Buffalo and Bills fans that can go in person! It truly is impressive! No game without its city and fans! 6 Quote

Brand J Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The Shakir TD because the offense had kinda been lulled to sleep and there was an uneasiness after getting outscored 17-3. Once he scored I could exhale. 1 Quote

BBFL Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Every time the defense made a play we benefited with points. That was the difference. Excellent team game. Previous games we’ve not done much with them. Pickens fumble and Elam’s INT were it. Could have added Freirmuth no-fumble in there too. Defense played legit, especially with injuries, while Josh and the gang followed up with some absolute haymakers to put the game to bed via Khalil and 17’s angry runs. Quote

DuckyBoys Posted January 16 Posted January 16 elam pick was huge All those plays mentioned were big Lot of buy plays this game Quote

Freddie's Dead Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The FG block was the play of the game because it completely changed the complexion. Squeelers came back from 21 down to only 7 down at one point. Luckily Tupac came through to ice the game. 1 2 Quote
stevestojan Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The Shakir TD was top 5 play in the league this year. Add what it meant in that moment of the game, and it’s arguably top 2, and I’m just adding some sand as I can’t think of what other play would be better. That was “we were lucky to get to see it” good. 3 1 Quote
