I’ve thought about this quite a lot. Players who had otherwise mediocre careers just going wild for one game.
For example, a classic example is Vernon Perry and the Oilers vs. the Chargers in the 1979 AFC Divisional Round. Perry nabbed 4 picks (the ONLY 4 interception game in NFL playoff history), and blocked a field goal, en route to beating the Fouts-led Chargers 17-14.
Perry would only start 3 and a half seasons. His career aside from this game is unremarkable, but, for this one game, he was a stud.
I’m curious as what other examples stand out the most to you all, recent or not.
