About this listen
For more than 100 years, the NFL has been a showcase for some of the most jaw-dropping, gravity defying, breathtaking displays of human excellence. The greatest games come down to a single moment: an unbelievable catch, a show-stopping run, an astonishing interception. These performances stay in the minds and hearts of football fans long after the game is over.
On Play By Play, host and former NFL wide receiver Andrew "Hawk" Hawkins breaks down these iconic moments with firsthand stories that drop you right into the middle of the most epic plays in football history. Join the league’s legends, coaches, and current stars for a nostalgic trip through the greatest hours, minutes, and seconds in football history, the lead-up to these moments, and their aftermath. Including:
- The Helmet Catch—David Tyree goes behind the play that led to 18-1.
- The Miracle in Motown—Randall Cobb explains how the most memorable plays come when there is no time left and all hope is lost.
- The Catch and The Catch III—You’ve heard of the iconic game-winning touchdown that made Joe Montana a household name. Three decades later, Vernon Davis proved that history does indeed repeat itself.
- The Miracle in Miami—Plays with multiple laterals never work. Unless you have Kenyan Drake.
- The Philly Special—Hear how one of the biggest Super Bowl upsets of all time came together with the Jaguars’ Coach Doug Pederson.
- The Music City Miracle—Back in 2000, Kevin Dyson helped make a name for the Tennessee Titans with one of the most memorable kick returns in NFL history.
Plus Hines Ward on the stunning gadget play from Super Bowl XL, legendary quarterback Joe Theismann on snatching victory from the jaws of defeat in Super Bowl XVII, Mike Jones on his tackle that left the Titans one yard short of a championship, former wide receiver Greg Lewis on the play that gave Patrick Mahomes his first Super Bowl ring, Kansas City great Neil Smith on the disappointment behind Derrick Thomas’s unbreakable record, and Tracy Porter on how he became Peyton Manning’s worst nightmare.
This project was produced independently by At Will Media for Audible and is for football fans everywhere.

If someone were to ask Jasmine Santos to describe the last few years of her life with a single word, it would definitely be a four-letter one. After 17 years - and countless broken bones and broken promises - she knows her window to compete in figure skating is coming to a close. But when the offer of a lifetime comes in from an arrogant idiot she's spent the last decade dreaming about pushing in the way of a moving bus, Jasmine might have to reconsider everything.

On the playing field, natural talent isn’t enough—there’s a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest?

The bestselling fitness book for men who want to gain 25-35 pounds of lean muscle and lose as much fat or more in just 3-5 hours per week—and without giving up delicious foods or doing grueling workouts. Is Bigger Leaner Stronger a body building book that can help you pack on brain-shrinking amounts of muscle in 30 days flat? No. Is it a fitness nutrition book full of dubious diet and exercise “hacks” and “shortcuts” for melting belly fat faster than a roided hornet? Absolutely not.

In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm.

Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

While the popular image of the Victorian world is one of stiff formality and old-fashioned values, it was an incredibly transformative time for many people who sought better protections, fairer wages, and greater freedom. And this included an increasingly popular and successful fight for animal welfare. Prior to the 19th century, the mistreatment of animals was rarely questioned, and sports like bullbaiting and dogfighting were common. So, what brought the plight of exploited and suffering animals to the attention of activists, politicians, and the public at large?

Story
The American story is a story of progress. We’re taught that as time moves forward–and movements for civil rights come and go–America gets better, and better, and better. But the story isn’t that straightforward. Because often, on the heels of what looks like progress, comes backlash. People in power find ways to return things to the way they were before. These moments prove that progress isn’t linear or inevitable. Our standard narratives about American progress aren’t quite true. Backlash offers a new narrative.

Story
Early True Believers: The Untold Story of Silicon Alley is a 1990s saga of ambition and innovation set in Manhattan’s Silicon Alley, a swath of downtown that served as New York City’s nerve center of tech entrepreneurship. The series features the stories of a forgotten cohort of early internet visionaries, countercultural social networks, the digital gold rush, and the lavish events that came with it, including one held in an underground Tribeca bunker that abruptly ended in a police raid—a harbinger of the upheaval to come.

Story
Fresh off the success of her groundbreaking first play, A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry's The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window tells the tragicomic story of a young bohemian couple in New York's Greenwich Village, struggling to do what's right in a world that rewards everything that's wrong. Sidney is a dreamer who wants his own Walden Pond; Iris is a budding actress whose own backstory is a performance. They're caught in a moment where, "the world is about to crack right down the middle," as the play tackles racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, liberal complacency, and more.
