On January 15 , the Vikings filed for trademarks on the phrases " Minneapolis Miracle " and " Minnesota Miracle " for use on over 100 items , from football helmets to bathing suits . At the 7th Annual NFL Honors , the Minneapolis Miracle won the NFL Play of the Year Award . In March 2018 , the NFL instituted a new rule that eliminated the requirement to kneel down or kick the point after following a game-ending touchdown that gives a team the victory ( it is still allowed if needed ) . In the Minnesota Miracle game , no result of an extra-point play would have changed the game result ( except for the score ) . The requirement had been in place because an extra-point play can affect point differential , and point differential is used as a tie-breaker for determining playoff seeding . However , there are many higher-ranked tie-breakers , so point differential is very unlikely to be used , and eliminating the anticlimax and confusion seen at the Minnesota Miracle game was deemed more important . In April 2018 , it was announced that Diggs ' cleats would be displayed in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton , Ohio . The play also won the Best Moment ESPY Award at the 2018 ESPY Awards
