In a game that helped bring instant replay to the NFL, the Denver Broncos defeated the Oakland Raiders 20-17 in the AFC Championship.
The Broncos lead 7-3 midway through the 3rd quarter and had a first and goal at the Oakland 2 yard line. Running back Rob Lytle took the handoff, but was met by Oakland defender Jack Tatum, who knocked the ball out. Raider linebacker Mike McCoy picked up the loose ball and returned it for an apparent Raider touchdown. Unbelievably, after a lengthy discussion, officials ruled no fumble. Denver scored shortly thereafter to take a 14-3 lead. Television replay clearly showed Lytle did fumble. "Sure I fumbled" Lytle later said. In the press box, infuriated Raider owner Al Davis reportedly yelled "What's going on here?!" NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle sat silently a few seats away. Art McNally, former head of NFL Officials, later admitted "It was a fumble and we were wrong on the call"
