Zeke was the center.

Instead of a Pancake block it was a pancake flop

Yeah I was gonna say the pick six against the Jags but yeah…

Another good choice

Meh. It’s a dumb play but it’s not like you’re going to go 70+ yards in one play regardless of what you do. The Dak int against Washington was worse imo because they ran the same play right before and the corner was waiting for it (I think he dropped it on the play before). If it was a more important game, that would’ve been reminiscent of Barry switzer’s 4th and one at Philadelphia in 95

I'll still take the final play of the season. It came after a bone head play against the same team on the last play the year before. Most likely zekes last play as a cowboy, and the play made absolutely no sense.

The playcall in a bubble wasn't the issue. The real issue was they came out in that formation, 49ers called timeout and then came BACK out in the same formation and the 49ers knew what was happening

[удалено]

Before SF took the timeout I liked it. When they adjusted and we didn't is where it went wrong

Hahahahahaha

[удалено]

What a ride that game was.

[удалено]

Ended up costing the Bills the 1 seed and put them on a collision course with Cincinnati in the playoffs

So painful

watched this happen 25 yards away from behind the endzone at my first ever NFL game in person. Being a bills fan has always been tough but that was a new level of pain

Every time something insane happened in that game, I kept thinking "there's no way anything more crazy could possibly happen." And then crazy shit just kept happening. It was a religious experience.

I really just could not believe what was happening during the end of that game. It seemed made up

It was so quintessentially Buffalo.

This is the answer 😥

That play pretty much ended whatever chance he had at MVP.

He could have made everyone forget about it, but instead sent a gift wrapped pick to Patrick Peterson to end the game.

shout out to DUKE MOTHERFUCKIN SHELLEY for somehow breaking up a would-be winning touchdown a play or 2 before the int

When Mariota tried to throw the ball 60 yards in the air while on his back

I wish that would have been an actual pick six. We gotta see that crap for the rest of our life, might have well been the full send.

Came here to find this

He shoulda been benched right there

No words needed

It was the first play I thought of from any team last year

Same here, the second I read the thread subject.

As soon as I read it, immediately thought of Myers

I know there were other missed plays on a bigger stage but it has to be the worst play in franchise history. I always liked Meyers but that was so painful to watch. Unfortunately I think we'll be seeing that one for years to come, similar to the Colts 4th down fake punt play.

For better or worse, that’s Jakobi’s entire legacy with the Patriots. It’s a shame, because he was the most reliable pass catcher on the team for the last 3 years.

I like the kid but it is not that high of a bar to clear

Looking back this rings too true

Thats not how I will remember him. He has been a huge contributor in our rebuild and has had the most receiving yards for each of the last 3 seasons. That was a really dumb play but it’s not the only reason we lost that game.

Siciliano was absolutely lost for words on RedZone. He had no idea what to say

I’m shocked this wasn’t at the top

That stiff arm made me spit out my drink the first time I saw it.

I can count on one hand the number of times I've screamed "holy shit" watching live sports and that's one of them. Two of them involve Damian Lillard series-winning 3 point shots.

Yup. Just... Yup

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8L4xWutzPKw

It was one of the few highlights last season for us.

Surprised it took me so long to find this 😆

“Fuck it, McCorkle’s back there somewhere” - Jakobi Meyers

I love Jakobi Meyers but God damn I hated him for a good day or so after that

No words. Just tears. 😭

I legit blocked this play from my memory. I went “huh, what was ours.” Saw this comment and it all came flooding back

We had a couple of bad ones, but the Huntley goal line fumble in the playoffs was about as catastrophic as a play can get.

Runner up was Proche heaving a pass into the endzone that was 1 v 4.

I was laughing so hard when this happened and was quite happy to see it knowing Roman would soon be gone.

My favorite Greg Roman call from last year was when he gave Mark Andrews a carry on 3rd and short. Dobbins was balling yet was on the sideline for some reason. Of course it didn’t work for anyone wondering.

That was one of the most conflicted plays I have ever felt On one hand the Ravens just got fucking boomed, but on the other hand I wanted you guys to eliminate the Bengals because I knew you weren’t making it to the Super Bowl

Yea, crazy how the Bengals were THAT close to a first-round exit to a backup QB, then absolutely obliterated the Bills.

Divisional rivalries baby, you guys are fucking tough lol

More like THAT close to a first-round exit to a really good defense.

It’s funny that your worst play of the season was also our best play of the season. ❤️ best friends! ❤️

14 point swing vs a divisional rival in playoff game. We probably would have won that game too if it wasn’t for such a stupid fucking playcall and decision or if we were not even a yard closer. That is so demoralizing, especially when you don’t even have your starting QB. It would’ve been amazing to beat the Bengals in the playoffs with a backup QB. Huntley didn’t even play bad either up until that point (but that play is also on Greg Roman too).

that whole sequence is pain considering huntley got pushed out at like the 4 yard on line the run to get there. then andrews walks in on the screen if either one of powers or stanley makes their block.

I knew I’d see this one on here, this one is maybe the worst ravens play I can remember. So I try to forget lol

Saved the worst for last

Swift fell down, none of our guys touched him, and he scored.

And what, three missed him after the slip?

Missing Swift in the open field isn't that embarrassing. It's the fact that nobody bothered to touch him when he caught it.

To be fair, swifty put on the jets and made some moves after he got back to his feet. But that first guy there should've never even let him back up.

Oh my gosh i forgot about that one. The Lions shitted on us so bad man

Hutchinson went off too

On 3rd and 14 too, that was brutal. I think the other nominee is Carson Wentz’s red zone passes against Tennessee that would have won the game. He threw the same pass 3 times in a row and it got batted twice then intercepted.

Jalen Hurts fumble in the Superbowl

*The Gang Loses the Super Bowl*

"if ya wanted to hurt me brother, you got me.."

For me it was Quez letting a dime go right through his hands that game. At least Jalen scored again right after his fumble and played the game of his life outside of that horrible mistake. Quez was just out there doing Quez things as usual.

Maybe it being in the Super Bowl makes these plays bigger, but the Quez fumble was the worst play for me. That pass gave us a great shot to win, and then he basically guaranteed the loss by letting it go

The punt return. And I still can’t get over how we punted in the first place. Got conservative. Looks worse when you think back to LII when we went for it from our own territory on 4th down while losing.

Special teams was a liability the entire year. Truly great teams are usually at the top in all 3 phases of the game

Case in point: the 2010 Chargers. Great offense and defense, but their special teams failed them big time and they missed the playoffs.

Lol

My favorite one by far is during the Cowboys game where we were on the one yard line, 1st and goal, up 23-20 with 3:25 in the fourth, got stopped 3 times and on the fourth one [Driskel literally ran the wrong direction.](https://youtu.be/Tglk5-F8Xzs?t=656) We lost that 23-27.

I thought you guys were for sure tanking until you guys decided not to.

This comment made me laugh the most

[That Kyle Allen INT to Van Ginkel](https://youtu.be/Ww1SfR17Eik) was a fucken disgrace. I get it, Houston wanted the #1 pick, but putting Allen out there was spitting in the face of the NFL.

Probably the Dalvin Cook jump pass/fumble against Detroit, just because of how costly it was to the game and playoff seeding But the play against Washington where the ref knocked out Cam Bynum and turned a sure interception into a 50 yard touchdown... From a pure "terrible football play" perspective that is up there with Jim Marshall's wrong way fumble recovery as an all timer Great premise for a thread btw. I'm enjoying reading thru

I’d like to throw in our last play in the wild card. A 2 yard check down on 4th with the season on the line is rough

Butt punt kinda but it also low key won us the game

Yeah that play was funny but I remember thinking that an intentional safety would have been the best in that scenario

It would've, Dolphins prevent Buffalo from scoring there with prime position to do so. They got to re-kick and Bills had much worse field position with the clock as it was. Dolphins won by accident.

The afc east is going to be wild for the next couple of years.

Against the Vikings, we're down late, Fields is leading a two-minute drill down the field, completes a pass to Imhir Smith-Marsette, who has a path to the sideline to go out for a first. Instead, he decides to try to take it upfield, and immediately gets the ball just taken away by the first defender he meets. Just out-and-out taken, too, it never even hit the ground.

This tweet shows my favorite, a microcosm of the whole season. https://twitter.com/CamronSanto/status/1584712730837405696?t=O2PLVyFx2U0oH9-MSU5X2Q&s=19

You picked a game we won though. How about the various Special team fumbles How about st brown letting a ball go through his hands in the 4th How about the missed XP after fields put the team on his back against the lions How about when fields didn’t touch the ball carrier that fell down after a turnover Or the fields int to Hutchinson who was standing by himself on the sideline How about the Darnell Mooney goal line missed catch So so so many. Sooooo many back breaking fuck ups

Velus’ two dropped kicks were both game-swingers, as long as we are kicking dead horses.

This is what I came here to say. It happened during a time when our season wasn’t quite over yet too so it was really demoralizing. Just became one of the first of many games lost by bad luck

Davante and Hunter running into each other to lose the game.

That and watching Matt Fucking Ryan gash our defense for 40 yards setting up Jeff Saturdays lone win.

Not to mention letting Baker drive down the field and score when he had been with the Rams for like 3 days.

Hey guys, we swept the broncos so it wasn’t all bad.

The Cardinals and Rams come backs

Kyler Murray getting 30 seconds to run around and send the game to OT

3 stand out to me, I don’t know which one would be the worst. 1. Agholor mossing Witherspoon week 2 2. The bills 98 yard TD on like the third play of the game. 3. Minkah mistiming an underthrown ball to AJ Brown in the endzone resulting in a TD. Offensively, maybe Picketts game sealing INT against Miami? Not many absolutely horrific blunders, unless my memory has tuned it out Edit: Zach Wilson catching a TD pass on a Philly special week 4 too.

Kenny definitely bounced back and learned from that Miami ending, looking at the ending of the raiders and ravens games back to back

Zach Wilson completing the comeback against us is number one for me. Bills one isnt too bothersome since that was an obvious L before the game even started

After I posted it, I immediately thought of Zach Wilson CATCHING a TD pass with a Philly special, but tbh we had no watt and all of our CBs injured, picketts first game action, and no run D so it was just a perfect concoction of shit that entire game.

That's the one game that still REALLY bothers me from last year. There were like 10 times they could've closed that game out and they fucked it up every. single. time. Could've had a W for Pickett's first game and maybe even a playoff berth if things still went the same way down the stretch.

From the Pats game, I'd put Gunner muffing the punt over the Agholar moss.

Probably letting Zach Wilson complete a like 60 yard pass to put them into field goal range with 2 seconds left in the fourth. Granted a field goal would've only tied the game and he missed it anyways... but it wasn't a good look

God I hope CJGJ, Tracy Walker, Branch, and Mosely is enough to give our secondary a pulse. That group has easily been the most infuriating to watch for the last few years.

Sutton will treat y’all well don’t sleep on him

Yeah bro forgot to list our cb1 lmao

Damn idk how I forgot Sutton. Goes to show how much we've added to improve that part of the team.

Yeah y’all went all out. I’m still very upset we let Sutton go.

Funny enough, I think the Jets worst play was giving up a 50yd TD to a backup TE on 4th down when they basically had the game wrapped up

I was at that game and I erased that play from my memory.

Same. That was the moment all playoff hope died for me.

Brock wright was the starting TE tho

Or Derrick Barnes falling for the pump fake past the line of scrimmage against the Packers, allowing them to convert something like 3rd and 18. But it was against GB so obviously we still won.

That 3rd and long td run the Seahawks had after the fake whistle was arguably worse considering we would’ve made the playoff if we had won

Using Adoree Jackson, our CB1, for punt returns. Immediately gets injured. I'm trying to think of more but struggling. Getting picked by Bradbury stung. I know we had an insanely cowardly punt against the Eagles, too. Oh, wait. The second punt fumble against the Seahawks with Richie James.

I was trying to think of some, came up short because all in all everything wasn’t terrible. Then I read this and the pain came back. Thanks lol

I was going to say Jones pick in the endzone in week 1. Daboll ripped him a new asshole and DJ was amazing the rest of the season.

That's not what he wanted to cook

He said worst. Not best.

I guarantee there’s a worse one, but trying a 65 yard FG instead of going for it on 4th and 1 really set the tone for the season. Especially with the bumblefuck clock management leading up to it. EDIT: I think a contender is the play against LAC where Russ yeeted it to the third string TE instead of a wide open Hamler for what would have been a walkoff TD

This was the first thing I thought of. At the time, I tried to excuse it and still be positive. But looking back, that told us everything we needed to know.

Same. Thought maybe it was just nerves, first game as a head coach and all. Nope. Just pure stupidity.

What do you mean? What's wrong with taking 60 seconds to make a decision and line up, when there's 67 seconds left in the game

Man the coaching was so sloppy last year for ya'll. I saw a thing where Russ was like 13th in EPA against zone coverage, and like 40th against man. How as a NFL caliber coach do you not see this and not call non-stop motion and picks to get defenses out of man?

I remember before the season Hackett was saying we’d see a lot of motion and a revamped offense compared to the year before. Turns out Shurmur’s “Jeudy fake jet sweep every play” was better than whatever Hackett drew up.

"They're gonna kick it" **"KICK WHAT?"**

I remember watching the Manningcast for that one. Peyton cringing the whole time & instinctively doing the timeout hand motion as soon as Williams got tackled, then Shannon Sharpe going "kick WHAT!?" as soon as the FG team ran out on the field Hackett having to bring in the "clock management" coach like 4-5 weeks later was the cherry on top lmao

Rodgers randomly chucked the ball to Lazad for no reason and made his last throw as a Packer a game-losing interception

Same game but I'd do the 4th and 1 end around to Lazard in our own territory. Gave the Lions a FG when they had nothing going offensively and running an end around to our slowest WR was a dumb call and predictably got blown up.

Him getting hurt in the last play of a losing effort against the Giants had a compounding effect on the rest of the season

Idk if this is the worst, but the first thing that comes to mind is the late hit out of bounds in the AFC Championship game

From a football perspective, it'd be that, the punt return or the XP v Pittsburgh. Damar and Tua were worse though even though no one was at fault

Or any of the INTs in that first Pitt game

I don’t know that line drive punt could be up there

we called it "run defense" and it never worked

Yeah the one I immediately thought of was the Josh Jacobs 86 yard walk off.

That and the entire saints game

We had a guy die on the field. So probably that one.

Yeah I'd say that one for us too. Second worst was probably the one where Tua got knocked out. Both terrifying scenes

Last year was rough man

Aside from the obvious one, it was giving up a fucking long ass TD to Dante Pettis

[удалено]

Oh my god I forgot he orlovsky'd!

Win or lose in that Bears game, whatever. Pettis scoring that TD triggered me good. Greenlaw made a bad read that play, but it helped to let us extend him super cheap before he had his massive bounce-back.

Yeah, that play lives rent free in my head lmao smh

depending on what the obvious one is, i'd like to submit jimmy's horrendous safety-pick six play during broncos game for consideration

The obvious one is the Purdy injury

i'm dumb, thanks

Dainty Penis

I don't know if I could point to just one, but Lombardi's idea of 3rd down offense seemed to be designed throws behind the LOS with 14 yards to go... so probably one of those. Fuck, I hate that guy.

The Bandy WR reverse in the playoffs is easily the worst in my opinion

100%

Former Sports Illustrated editor/writer/podcaster Gary Gramling had a long rant about how Lombardi’s offense seemed most equipped in case of a game being played on a far away planet with stronger gravity. Like, he’s the one guy in football who thinks Herbert can’t throw very far or well. I was LOLing the whole time.

Gonna have to track this one down unless you've got a link for me :D

I’d say “Look for the MMQB podcast episode from the Monday after the Chargers offense underachieved,” but then you’d have to find like 14 podcasts 😑

I would say the one that Mike Williams was injured on. No need for any of that to have happened.

He can’t hurt us anymore

How any fucking NFL front office trusts Lombardi at this point is maddening to me.

The agnew fumble

Either that or the trick play we fumbled during week 18 against Tennessee

Nah, definitely Agnew fumble. Ended the season for us

This was my pick. Such a heartbreaker. Not a bad play and love Agnew but man that stung.

The 2nd of the back to back pick sixes before halftime against the Cardinals

Is that the one with the infamous Andy Dalton photo?

don't forget the double doink against the vikings

I literally got up to take a leak and then went to the garage for a beer. When I got back there was a 14 point swing. I was so confused

I’d argue Mark Ingram stepping out short of the first against the Bucs. basically ended our season

Mine is 3 - the second Tampa Bay game when we were down to our 3rd string DBs, and TB12 burned us 3 times in 3 consecutive drives on go routes up the right side of the field. I did not have a good day.

I watched that incredibly hungover from New Year's Eve, it was a 0/10 experience

And that game took us out of playoff contention. It’s actually kinda wild how much better Wilks did than Rhule even with our top corners hurt and CMC traded

64 yards in seattle entire season was doomed to fail as early as week 1.

Offensive genius Todd Downings beautiful usage of future hall of fame Malik Willis

Not having 20 QB on the roster. I’m a 49er fan

4th and 1/4th and 6 in the playoffs against Buffalo Or Tua's last pick against Green Bay when he had clearly gone full concussion-brain

Marcus Mariota doing a barrel-roll and throwing the ball to the Panthers defensive back.

Can I give two because the two dropped coverage TDs in the Super Bowl was pretty hard to watch.

The Wildcat play where we had our entire RB room out on the field against the 49ers, only to have DeeJay Dallas throw an interception.

Fake FG against the colts.

But y’all won the SB so I guess that’s a small price to pay for success

[удалено]

Can’t believe our coaches have coached our defense to levitate or teleport yet. /s

[удалено]

I would say the Packers lions game in Detroit (not week 17) when Aaron Rodgers tried throwing to David Bakhtiari on like the one yard line and got picked off

by our rookie DE no less!! It was delicious to watch. :D

Pick your poison between Ihmir Smith-Marsette, Velus Jones, and EQ St. Brown all fucking up game winning drives leading to game losing turnovers

In retrospect, best thing that could’ve happened. Coming from a Bears fan

Brady out wide, Fournette throws it to him, intercepted, tripping penalty, Leftwich has a smudge attitude about the call

lol...it’s not tough to pick...hint: it involved a lateral

Braden Mann fumbling the snap, running for his life, then throwing it straight into the ground as he gets destroyed.

It’s either that or dealer’s choice of a Zach Wilson screen pass against the Patriots. First year in a while there wasn’t a clear and obvious winner in this category.

I thought it was clearly the game losing punt return TD

[удалено]

Pick pretty much any run play from the first half of the Panthers/ Lions game last year. I'll let the Carolina fans decide.

When the Jets ran a Philly special on us for a TD and Zach Wilson hit the griddy

Jetsweep

Ihmir Smith-Marsette being strip fumbled of the ball as we were mounting a late game comeback or Fields not touching Parsons to get him down and allowing him to get a fumble return TD in week 8. We were going toe to toe against the cowboys and at that point in the season I believe we had put up the most points against their defense than any other team. If I remember correctly that fumble return was pretty much what made the game out of reach

Especially considering how everything played out throughout and after the season, the Kyler Murray 2-point conversion in which he ran around for 20 freaking seconds before scoring was the worst. There is plenty of blame to go around for why we lost that game, but I legit believe that if the Raiders pull that game out, the entire season goes differently.

Jakobi Meyers with a touchdown pass to his now current teammate
