The end was as good as the Vikings could have imagined: Brett Favre zipped a pass to a little-used reserve wide receiver in the back of the end zone in the final seconds for a classic Favre finish. Greg Lewis leaped for a 32-yard touchdown catch with 2 seconds left while a flattened Favre watched from his stomach, and the Vikings stunned the 49ers to stay unbeaten.

Matthew Stafford was flat on his back, getting his left shoulder evaluated on the sideline by the Detroit Lions medical staff. The Cleveland Browns called a timeout and gave the rookie a chance to get back in the game. Stafford threw his fifth touchdown pass, this one from 1 yard out to Brandon Pettigrew and Jason Hanson's extra point with no time on the clock gave Detroit a thrilling win.

Ben Roethlisberger throws to the corner of the end zone, and the receiver barely gets his feet down inbounds for a remarkable touchdown. Ten months after winning the Super Bowl with just such an improbable play, the Steelers almost saved their season with a nearly identical one. Roethlisberger ended the game the way he started it by throwing a touchdown pass to Mike Wallace, a desperation 19-yarder on the final play that rallied Pittsburgh to a 37-36 victory over Green Bay that ended the Packers' five-game winning streak and the Steelers' five-game losing streak.

After Favre's stunning, fourth-down pass to Sidney Rice with 16 seconds left in regulation, Jay Cutler threw the game-winner to Devin Aromashodu with just over 9 minutes left in overtime.
