What separates rushing touchdown from all other such scores, is the special life it has in a stadium as it happens. As the running back breaks free of the shackles that are the defensive line, sparking hope and anticipation in the crowd, which grows with every graceful move that pushes him deeper into enemy territory until finally, the excitement crescendos by his finding daylight; finding the coveted end zone.
There are few things in football as exhilarating as a truly magnificent touchdown, barrelled in from the ground. A bulldozer, bouncing off defenders, making a heavily contested march towards that painted turf.
