Detroit 19, Pittsburgh 16 (OT-1998) – This was not a spectacular game, but it was remembered for the coin toss at the start of overtime. Steelers kicker Norm Johnson sent the game into extra time when he kicked a game-tying 25-yard field goal with four seconds remaining. Referee Phil Luckett conducted the coin toss and Steelers running back Jerome Bettis called tails, and that’s how the coin landed.

The Lions quickly moved the ball downfield, and Jason Hanson kicked a game-winning 42-yard field goal.
