November 29, 1987 – A 7-3 New Orleans Saints squad were in a battle in the Steel City, taking on the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Saints led 20-14 with 2:21 left in the fourth quarter. A tipped pass near the goal line by Rickey Jackson on third down forced the Steelers to decide: take the chip-shot field goal or go for the touchdown. The Steelers decided to go for it.
That next play is one that former New Orleans Saints safety Brett Maxie, and the Crescent City would never forget.
