ESPN’s Adam Schefter has remained a firm believer that the “Music City Miracle” play from the 1999 AFC wild-card game between the Tennessee Titans and Buffalo Bills should have never happened.
Schefter has long maintained that the pass was indeed a forward lateral, which would have rendered the play dead and erased what was one of the greatest moments in all of sports history.
And it’s an opinion he once again shared during ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown” broadcast prior to the Bills-Titans “Monday Night Football” matchup in Week 6.
But the man who threw the certain backward lateral, Titans great and tight end, Frank Wycheck, checked Schefter on his take via Twitter.
“…I’m reporting that you couldn’t be more wrong. I know because I threw it,” Wycheck tweeted.
@AdamSchefter I’m reporting that you couldn’t be more wrong. I know because I threw it! #TitanUp

It’s 21 years later and somehow there is still a debate about this, even from Schefter, who clearly had it broken down for him during the aforementioned broadcast.
Time to let it go, because Frank Wycheck said so.
