I'm not sure there's another quarterback that makes this play. So many little things happen here that are just innate abilities and feel.

At this most critical point in the game:

- makes a quick decision to speed up once the defender pursues him (setting up his juke)

- keeps his eyes scanning the field and not on the defender in pursuit (zero panic)

- stops on a dime so the defender misses him (a 6' 2" 230lb LB, not a lumbering DT or DE)

- in the same stopping motion, rips a 35-yard pass hitting his receiver in stride

He's one of one.
