6. Brandon LaFell’s go-ahead touchdown against the Ravens

When it happened: Divisional Round Playoffs (January 10th, 2015)

Where it happened: Foxborough, Massachusetts

What happened: LaFell came down with the winning touchdown pass in the Divisional Round classic.

When LaFell corralled this perfect over-the-shoulder pass for the winning score, Brady passed Joe Montana as the all-time leader in postseason touchdown passes.

It’s been a rocky 2015 regular season for LaFell, but he will forever go down in Patriots’ history as an instrumental component in the Patriots’ 2015 postseason run. Don’t forget, he caught the opening touchdown in Super Bowl XLIX, as well.

Against the Ravens, LaFell was targeted seven times, catching five of those passes for 62 yards including the game-winner. When Edelman and Amendola are on the field with him, LaFell is a very dependable pass catcher. You just don’t want him to be the guy in the passing attack.

Hopefully, LaFell gives us another long-lasting postseason memory in January (and knock on wood, February).
