What -one- game that Dan Marino played in would you most want to watch again and again? It could be one where he broke records, won a close game, or just the entire team played so well.

Going with the first vote, I'd have to say the 1985 Bears game. I never will get tired of watching that team effort and great passing from Marino.
 
I'm no expert. Just a fan, so here's a really unspecific list:

1. 85 home game vs jets (the bomb to Duper)
2. The playoff game at home vs KC
3. His first game back after the achillies where he ripped the Pats a new one.
4. Fake Spike ('nuff said)
5. 85 Bears Game.

Greatest QB ever.
 
Bears game was a work of art, especially considering how good that defense was, how nobody till that game was able to figure them out, and how nobody after the Miami game was still able to do to them what Marino and Miami did.
 
Fake spike against the Jets! As a New Yawka, nothing gives me more pleasure than to bring that game up to all my Jet fan friends. Best part is.. they all agree (as much as they hate to) that it was one heck of a play by old Danny boy. And yes, I can watch it over and over again and never get tired of it.:D
 
The 85 AFC championship game. That game although a loss showed the greatness that the team had and what we could expect from Dan for years to come.

That would definately be my choice (I was there with my Dad). It was unbelievable!!! 4th and 5 with about 3 minutes left, down by 3 at the Patriots 35 yard line, Marino audibles at the line-of-scrimmage and throws a perfect strike to Irving Fryar streaking down the sidelines for the game winning TD. I still get chills thinking about that game. 473 passing yards and 5 TD's (should have been 6 TD's if Keith Byars didn't kick the ball up in the air at the goal line for Marino's only INT). What a game!!!

Pre-Achilles injury, the 1984 AFC Championship win over the Steelers, Post-Achilles injury I'll go with his first game back against the Patriots.

There are so many others but those jump into my mind.
 
my 1st game at Joe Robbie was Marino's comeback game vs. Pats in 94'.He threw the 5 t.d.s to Bledsoe's 4.many of the Jets-Fins games at Giants Stadium in the 80's were pretty much all fantastic.Watched Pete Stoy kick a 59 yarder in the wind,nat moore do his spinning catch,and Clayton drop a TD right in front of me were some of the highlites.Been a while you know,can't remember everthing.
 
His first game against NE coming off the injury or the fake spike game vs. the Jets would be my top two.

:lol: Yea, I know what you mean, if I was a Patriots fan, I would also be happy to see Marino Retire....after all if he was still playing, nobody would really pay too much attention to Brady, so it is a good thing for you guys that he is retired.
