Jim Plunkett, cut by two teams, throws 3 TDs including an 80-yard bomb to Kenny King in one of the greatest comeback stories in NFL history.
★ The longest pass play in Super Bowl history at the time. King caught a short pass and raced 80 yards, stunning the Eagles.
★ Plunkett, who'd been released by both the 49ers and Patriots, completed 13 of 21 for 261 yards and 3 TDs with 0 INTs. The ultimate redemption story.
