Dan Marino and the Fake Spike Game. It sounds like a Harry Potter title, but it’s one of the most iconic moments in NFL history.

An even bigger debate: does Dan Marino’s career still have the same reputation without this highlight? Plus we spotlight two other players featured in the game and the winding paths the rest of their careers took.
