Atlanta Falcons

Super Bowl XXXIV should be memorable for this play. Ten yards short of the endzone, and with 6 seconds left on the clock, Tennessee Titans wide receiver catches a short pass and dives for a game-tying score, but falls shy on a tackle by St. Louis Rams linebacker Mike Jones. The Rams went on to win 23-16 at the Georgia Dome on that Sunday, Jan. 30, 2000 - the last time Atlanta hosted a Super Bowl.
