It’s late in the game and the fans are in a frenzy as Tom Brady and the New England Patriots are marching down the field with ease. It’s 3rd down and three, ball in Giants territory and Tom Coughlin and the Giants call time out.
Brady sets up in the shotgun as Randy Moss spreads left with Wes Welker in the slot and Laurence Maroney in the backfield. Brady takes the snap and drops back in the pocket. Michael Strahan and Osi Umenyiora put pressure on the pocket and Brady slips to the outside to evade Umenyiora. Strahan cuts off the run as Brady scrambles, He looks deep down field for Moss then left to Stallworth, Welker slides across the middle and Brady pumps and fires a perfect spiral to the leaping Randy Moss as he one hands the pass and stumbles into the red zone as he’s tripped up by a Giant’s defender.
