What they didn’t show at the end of this clip is that the NFL commissioner at the time Paul Tagliabue called Terry McAulay and told him the game had to be finished. Some of the players on both teams had taken their gear off and started showering but they were forced to go back onto the field more than 20 minutes later so that the Jaguars could kneel on the ball 2 times and the clock could officially hit 0.

Amazing that this was twenty two years ago, almost to the day, and it seems like last week. I always felt bad for Tim Couch, as he had a LOT of potential but was going to get killed with that offensive line and the coach, who was woefully inept, just wouldn't design an offense to play to his strengths. No wonder he was out of the league so fast. I really did feel bad for him.

Someone left Giants Stadium after having been served multiple alcoholic beverages, he caused a fatal accident. A resulting lawsuit was brought against the company responsible after the accident. Most stadiums and arenas have similar policies regarding alcohol sales to where I worked the farther a game goes along. And limits can include a maximum of two drinks per sale.

@@Eli-ss9gj It doesn’t matter whether they buzzed or if their was a malfunction. The play was ran. You can’t back track after the fact. That’s why this never happened again.

Sam Wyche would have put a stop to this.

Sam Was a d***

I was at this game. I was in the top row if the upper deck. We were halfway down the stairs down when they brought them back out. Some dude arguing with a fire hydrant of a cop had a rough day trying to get back into the seats.

"The play that will be talked about into 2024"

If I was the browns head coach, I would gathered my players and walked off the field. This was total B.S.

How on earth can you overrule a play from a previous snap when you've already ran another play? This was the worst officiated game ever played in the history of the National Football League.

Now that's rockin the house!

These two teams just played this weekend in Cleveland. I was kinda hoping for the same result.

Boy I’m glad the guy kept explaining refs don’t usually review calls once another play has been run. I was having such a hard time understanding.

It was the beginning for of the replay era… a mix of excitement and really not understanding how to utilize this game changing tool. Weird pet peeve to have here…

In addition to the previous comment, you forget this was live television. People were tuning in trying to figure out wtf was going.

Fast forward 22 years: 4,782 high definition cameras in every stadium, the league seemingly not able to define what a catch is, rules to protect players being selectively enforced, selectively thrown penalty flags that more often than not favor a marketable star, and after 10 minutes of reviewing a play that it takes the average human watching the game 10 seconds to get the call correct - the officials STILL get it wrong. Man, replay really made the game better.

More than 4,782 HD cameras - every phone is an HD camera.

@@bblande I was exaggerating the number of cameras the broadcast networks use.

The origins of NFL officiating being the deciding outcome in games

I was at this game as a kid with really good tickets my dad got from work on the side of the end zone. When the bottles started flying, we got up to leave and a fraction of a second after standing up a FULL bottle slammed into my dads seat. Could have really hurt him.

They were plastic

And nothing has really changed,now they giving the Chiefs extra downs because of "Clock Errors"

Cleveland fans should be ashamed of themselves. They didn't hit a single ref with those bottles. What a stupid call. You literally can't challenge a play after another one is ran.

Ahh memories.
