18. Brett Favre to Greg Lewis

Sept. 27, 2009. Brett Favre made believers of us all by hitting Greg Lewis in the back of the end zone for a game-winning touchdown against the 49ers.

Favre started a little slow for the Vikings in 2009 and some were beginning to question whether he still possessed the magic touch.

Old No. 4 made all those doubters eat their words with his single greatest play as a member of the Vikings, a 32-yard bullet to Lewis that gave the Vikes a come-from-behind win over San Francisco.

Like Eric Guliford before him, Greg Lewis earned a place in Vikings history with a single heroic feat.

Did I mention the play won an ESPY?

An ESPY is definitely better than a Super Bowl ring, right Brett?
