Stefon Diggs looked back once—then twice—before accepting reality. No one was going to catch him. Still running, Diggs thrust the ball forward with his right hand, towards the end zone and the thousands of Vikings fans beyond it. His 61-yard touchdown, aided by Saints safety Marcus Williams's whiff, put Minnesota up 29-24 with no time left on the clock. After crossing into the purple, he stuck his arms out wide to receive a state's stunned jubilation. Then he tossed his helmet skyward because, well, because who knew what was going on at that point.
"I still don't know what just happened, I really don't," Diggs said soon after.
