actually i seem to recall a big game we had in the mooch days, when we held held a team on first and goal from the one,,, they then got a fresh set of downs and had a brand new first and goal from the one. if i recall someone knocked the ball loose and one of our linebackers ran 99 yards for the 7.... now that was a long time ago and i may have my facts all messed up but i really recall something like this??

I believe it was 2001 vs philly was the mooch era one. The second one was lee Woodall vs buffalo in 1995.

We had a great goal-line stand with Mooch back in 2001 against the Eagles. I believe they ran 7 or 8 plays inside our 5-yard line (got a fresh set of downs after defensive holding). Derek "Cyclops" Smith picked off McNabb in the endzone. That was epic!

The 99-yard TD was back in 1995 iirc. Against the Bills. I think it was Gary Plummer that crushed Thurman Thomas right at the goalline, and then Lee Woodall scooped up the fumble and raced 99 yards for the score.
