Case in point, on Sunday Night Football, when Allen connected with receiver Trent Sherfield for an improbable touchdown against the Dolphins that turned Miami coach Mike McDaniel into a meme for the ages.

To make the surreal play that much better, the wideout showed off a picture-perfect toe drag to stay inbounds, a sequence that stunned viewers and left McDaniel with a hilariously blank stare on his face in disbelief.
