description

As on-field temperatures eclipsed 130 degrees during what NFL history remembers as “The Pickle Juice Game,” Jeremiah Trotter used his instincts to give Sept. 3, 2000’s showdown a second title: “The Pick-Six Game.” Poised for All-Pro breakthroughs in Year Three, Philadelphia’s linebacker took his share of the spotlight, jumping Dallas’ curl route to collect both an interception, and a 27-yard scoring return. The threat of cramps and dehydration was only the Dallas Cowboys’ second-scariest sight during 2000’s home opener, as the Eagles’ ferocious defense turbocharged a 41-14 win; Trotter’s box score noted the 27-yard touchdown as his lone, but supremely impactful contribution.
