As a result, it set up the Seahawks to attempt a Hail Mary. With 2 seconds left, Seahawks' quarterback Russell Wilson spiraled a 60-yard pass into the end zone only to be intercepted by Falcons' wide receiver Julio Jones with no time remaining. 2014 — San Francisco 49ers vs. New Orleans Saints: The 49ers had just tied the score at 24–24 with 44 seconds left in regulation, leaving the Saints with enough time to try for the win. On the final play of the 4th quarter, Saints quarterback Drew Brees fired a pass from his own 48 yard line towards the end zone where tight end Jimmy Graham caught it for what appeared to be the game-winning touchdown. However, officials called offensive pass interference on Graham for shoving 49ers defensive back Perrish Cox to the ground before making the catch. Cox appeared to have 'flopped,' or exaggerate the contact from Graham, and Graham claimed that the penalty should not have been called. The 49ers went on to win the game in overtime, 27–24. A few days after the game, the NFL issued a statement saying that offensive pass interference was correctly called on the failed Hail Mary. 2015 — Baltimore Ravens vs. New England Patriots: The New England Patriots' wide receiver Brandon LaFell caught a 23-yard touchdown pass with 5:13 left in the 4th quarter. On the ensuing drive, Patriots safety Duron Harmon intercepted Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, but were unable to run out the clock. After the subsequent punt, the Baltimore Ravens received the ball with 0:04 to play. The Ravens selected a Hail Mary play for the final play. The Ravens lined up at their own 48-yard line, with Flacco lining up in the shotgun formation. Flacco scrambled around the pocket, and heaved a deep ball to the end zone. A mass of players leaped for the ball, however, the ball was knocked out.
