NFL Game of the Week

1972 AFC Divisional Playoffs: Oakland Raiders at Pittsburgh Steelers (8x9)

Air date: Dec 30, 1972

For the Steelers, who had never been in the playoffs before, this game of December 23 would be remembered forever. It's a holy day of obligation in Pittsburgh, with a surprise ending steeped in controversy. One cannot dispute, however, that The Immaculate Reception, the key to Pittsburgh's 13-7 win, was the spark that ignited the Steeler Dynasty.
