What's the one play that best describes Marino?

I would go to 1985, game at home vs the Jets, Dolphins losing and less than a minute left, Miami had been struggling all season, if Miami loses it falls 3 games behind the Jets, so what Marino did?
Throw a perfect pass (around 70 yards if I remember correctly) to Mark Duper on the right sideline, Duper bobbles it, catches it and run the rest of the way for a TD and a victory, the Dolphins went on to win the rest of the games of the season to capture the AFC East.
 
I would say the fact that he was so accurate and quick release he could knock a fly out of the air from 40 yards away is what I'll always remember him for. Not to mention he was the whole reason I started watching the Fins. Went to the superbowl the year I was born.
