Theisman Goes Down!

Perhaps one of the more unforgettable sports injuries ever. On the Blitz, Lawrence Taylor gets through the line and nails Joe Theisman, only to hop up after the tackle calling frantically for the medical staff. One can only imagine that LT heard Theisman's leg snap as he went down. I even find this video hard to watch sometimes, but it's certainly not as gruesome as some others that are still to come.

This video is from an ESPN retrospective, and includes some additional commentary from Theisman and others.
