Broncos vs. Washington Redskins: The teams appeared to be headed for overtime when the Broncos offense lined up on the Redskins 43 yard line with six seconds left. Rod Smith, who had no receptions, scores, or any other recorded statistics at that point, was lined up as the lone receiver on the left side and was in the game because wide receiver Anthony Miller was out with a concussion. Two other Broncos offensive starters – tight end Shannon Sharpe and running back Rod Bernstine – also had left with injuries. Both sides knew John Elway had to go to the end zone because the Broncos were out of timeouts. The Redskins were in a three-deep zone with Darrell Green on Smith's side. The Redskins' rushers were pushed past Elway, and he stepped up in the pocket and fired a line drive to Smith, who leaped in front of Green to catch it, giving the Broncos a 38–31 victory. 1995 — New York Jets vs. Buffalo Bills: Boomer Esiason nearly tied the game after connecting with Adrian Murrell on a 41-yard Hail Mary bomb, which was tipped by Cornelius Bennett, on the game's final offensive play.
