4. Super Bowl 10: Lynn Swann's Dive
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsLoFjsTkoc There are some players you just wish you could see play their position because they were the masters. They might not post huge numbers every game and the records they set will be broken one day, but there are a few players that you know when they were out on the field, they played the game the way it was meant to be played. Lynn Swann was the wide receiver of the seventies and with catches like the one he made at Super Bowl 10, it's easy to see why. You have to see this play in slow motion. It's already a fifty yard pass with a defender all over him, but the juggling act Swann performs is a thing of beauty. Then he has the presence of mind to get up and gain an extra five yards! It's a play that perfectly encapsulates what was then a record-setting performance by Swann on his way to a Super Bowl MVP award.
