I can.  It was about 6 years ago.  Seahawks at Denver.  Denver started one
of those barely adequate qbs they were forced to use at the time and by
the mid third quarter were down 35-10.  They brought in Morton (I'm pretty
sure this was his last year) who hadn't started due to extreme gimpyness.
Morton threw TD passes on something like 3 of his first 6 throws, and brought
Denver  into the lead within about 6 minutes.

Those of us watching in Seattle got bad headaches and had to change channels.
