Kevin Harlan has had a number of memorable calls in his broadcast career, ranging from a field-invading cat to a field-invading fan.

But nothing will top the time when Harlan called two NFL games at once in the final Sunday of the 2019 season.

In order to get a playoff bye, the Chiefs needed to beat the Chargers at home and have the four-win Dolphins defeat the Patriots in Foxborough.

Both happened, and Miami pulled the upset with a last-minute touchdown that was narrated by Harlan, who was calling the game in Kansas City.

This was a great moment in broadcasting history.

Now it’s the Dolphins who need a little help. Miami can make the playoffs with a win Sunday against the Jets and a Chiefs victory over the Broncos. Denver would get in the playoffs ahead of the Dolphins with a win against KC.

That’s why Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill shared a special social-media message for his former team, the Chiefs.

Dolphins fans also made a plea on X to have the Chiefs knock off the Broncos. Here is what they were saying.
