Catching a ball off a deflection is pretty surprising, and you generally don't see players spontaneously considering things and deciding to run out the clock when the end zone's in front of him and defenders are behind him, especially not in a situation where you need the touchdown to win.  Grinding down the clock in football is generally accomplished by play selection, with the use of a running game rather than a passing game, because incomplete passes stop the clock.  The only other example of this that I know of, and a much more dramatic one, is Brian Westbrook's kneel-down on the 1 yard line -- <a href="http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-playbook/09000d5d80547e6f/WK-15-Anatomy-of-a-Play-Brian-Westbrook-s-game-clinching-kneel-down" rel="nofollow">http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-playbook/09000d5d80547...</a>
