All the New York Giants needed to do to win this 1978 game against the Philadelphia Eagles was to take a knee. What is the nickname of the play, where a fumbled ball by quarterback Joe Pisarcik, led to a game winning touchdown by cornerback Herman Edwards?

The "Miracle at the Meadowlands," is the nickname of the play that caused the Philadelphia Eagles to beat the New York Giants on the road in 1978. The score was 17-12 in favor of the Giants until Quarterback Joe Pisarcik loses control of the ball on an attempted handoff. Eagles cornerback Herman Edwards picked up the ball and ran 26 yards into the end zone for the game winning touchdown.
