It wasn't 64 yards, but Bert Rechichar"s first career FG attempt was a then-NFL record 56 yarder.

I am eagerly anticipating a book to be published about this team later this year. ;) correct 1964 Bills for those not in the know. The same team that led their league on points scored, yards gained, and turnovers lost. The only other offense (that I've found) to lead their league in all three categ...

Nick Saban - 7 national championships at the collegiate level. All three out of a job within the span of (approximately) 24 hours. ...

I wonder now how many times has that happened since 1950 - three different teammates throw a TD pass in one game. I found a couple, both involving Detr...
