I am looking for a video (if available) of one play from the 1991 season. I t was late in the year and Miami was playing in Chicago. I was 11 years old and I saw a play I will never forget. Miami was driving late in the 4th quarter and Marino threw up a rare wobbly pass, Mark Clayton (going pretty deep) slipped and fell and caught the ball ON HIS BACK. That saved the drive for MiamiMiami went on to win (in OT). The announcers calling the game called it "the catch of the year". It is one of the greatest catches I have ever seen. For some reason, it never gets any play in those "greatest catches" or "greatest plays" countdowns. In fact, I have never seen a replay of it anywhere (other than during that game). It is possible that the catch isn't quite as spectacualr as I remember. If anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it.
 
send me a pm im pretty sure i have a copy on dvd and ill look for it for you. amazing catch, i remember watching it when i was 10 years old, and then finding it years later was awesome. yeah and the catch is as spectacular as you remember
 
dang. I was only 3...but i wanna see that. Sounds quite good.
 
I had a buddy that lived in Chicago...I went to visit him and he got tickets to the game. I remember how weird it was that it was dark at 3:00 and later it started to snow. That was a first for me to be at a game with snow. All those Bear fan gave us such a hard time as the only Dolphin Fans in the section. I will never forget that catch either! Those were the days when we always expected to win oh my how things have changed.
