The Jacksonville Jaguars pulled off a last minute win today in Jacksonville, as they beat the Houston Texans by a close score of 26-24. The deciding play of the game was quite possibly the play of the season so far. With the game clock expired, David Garrard heaved a hail mary pass 50 yard downfield to the endzone. Mike Simm-Walker went up for the Texans and swatted the ball away into the arms of Mike Thomas for a gift wrapped 50 yard game winning touchdown. You can see the video of the play below.
