Matt Prater kicks a 64 YARD FIELD GOAL!
|
Unbelievable. I thought for a long time that if anybody was going to break it, it would either be Sebastian Janikowski, or even Josh Scobee (If he was placed in the right conditions).

Why can't I have NFL Sunday Ticket on cable TV? I can't tell you how mad I am that the NFL has an exclusive deal with DirecTV because that is way too expensive for people with financial problems. I want to know why cable TV customers are not allowed to get NFL Sunday Ticket. That is stupid. If I had NFL Sunday Ticket I could have seen that live, along with the rest of the Broncos game.
OK, enough ranting. I also thought Sebastian Janikowski would be the one who breaks the record, but knew Josh Scobee couldn't. Congratulations to Matt Prater for breaking the NFL record that was tied by a former Bronco, Jason Elam, in 1998, and more recently, Sebastian Janikowski, also in Denver. I am sure thye and former Saint Tom Dempsey are all proud of Matt's accomplishment.
It's no coincidence that there have been three successful +63 yard field goals and they've all happened in Denver.
That's a record that will be broken only by Broncos kickers.
THERE IS A SKELETON INSIDE OF YOU.
RIGHT NOW. THIS IS NOT A JOKE.
Quote:He certainly has the experience, and leg strength to do it. I only remember his 63-yard attempt in Indianapolis. It was long enough.
Quote:It's no coincidence that there have been three successful +63 yard field goals and they've all happened in Denver. Sebastian Janikowski is a Raider, but yes, he did it in Denver. Because the high altitude allowed this to happen, I always wondered why Tom Dempsey could do it at sea level. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Quote:Sebastian Janikowski is a Raider, but yes, he did it in Denver.Wasn't Dempsey the guy with missing toes and had special shoes with metal in them? Or am I mistaken?

Quote:I never said he wasn't. OK I thought you said only former Broncos tied Tom Dempsey. I read in the article about that kick David Akers also tied the old record.
No, that was the DG to MT Hail Mary pass that ended up with MT's gloves going into the HOF. Seemed like the entire stadium was chanting for Scobee to try it, but they opted for the Hail Mary. Scobee had already missed a couple that day, so that might have had something to do with the Hail Mary.

Scobee had already missed a couple that day, so that might have had something to do with the Hail Mary. That pass was 50 yards. One of Josh Scobee's misses was a "what the heck, can't hurt" 58-yarder to end the half.
The kick would have been a 65 yard attempt. Passing and kicking yardage are not the same.

From my guestimate in my seat at the game at the time... 67 yards would have been even better... As I said, passing and kicking yards are not the same. Jagswilldestroyyou asked about a 65 yarder. I was answering him.
