Where will Michael Crabtree's 'Slice of Blue' catch land in Raiders annals?

SAN DIEGO -- Let’s see ... there’s Ghost to the Post. The Sea of Hands. The Divine Interception and, around these parts, the Holy Roller, which elicits more than eye rolls from the Chargers faithful.

But, with apologies to Ken Stabler’s forward-fumble being kicked around by Pete Banaszak before Dave Casper fell on the ball in the end zone in San Diego for a last-second win in 1978, might Sunday’s 19-16 playoff-clinching victory have added to the annals another legendary name play that proved fortuitous for the Oakland Raiders?

Michael Crabtree’s Slice of Blue catch on the right side of the end zone with 22 seconds remaining in the first half jump-started a sluggish Raiders offense and set the stage for another comeback.
