NFL awards ‘Miami Miracle” Clutch Performance Play of the Year

Share

Saturday night at the NFL's annual awards ceremony on the eve of Super Bowl 53, the famously-dubbed "Miami Miracle" play that delivered the Dolphins a stunning last-second victory over the New England Patriots was named as the Bridgestone Clutch Performance Play of the Year

The play, involving multiple laterals and a wild mad dash to the pylon, was the Patriots' fourth loss at Hard Rock Stadium in five seasons. Helping the miraculous play happen was a controversial decision to leave Devin McCourty off the field for the final play in lieu of Rob Gronkowski as the last line of defense, a plan that backfired when Gronkowski was left slipping and diving at Kenyan Drake as the running back crossed the goal line.
