    I'm surprised his leg didn't go flying off with the ball.

    it was a 64 yard attempt that was plenty long enough, about 2-4 yards longer then needed and it hit the upright. Had it been on target a bit more that would have been good from at least 66 maybe even as far as 68 back.

    He kicked from around the 47.

    Announcer says 5-10 feet up the post, it was at least 10'. He's always had the leg, just not the desire. I guess when it may be a record he's a lil more into it. It was a bomb of a kick though.

    That kick looked like it woulda been good from at least 68 yards if it was accurate...holy schnikes. Maybe if it was from 68 it would came in a few inches and made it....

    WOW is all I can say about that kick.

    While Steve Christie had longer, he once converted a 54 yarder in Miami that hit the net at the very top, dead center.

    I was in the stands and know that would have cleared from 70 yards + . He absolutely killed it.

    I remember that kick. I thought it was a 59 yarder though. Either way, I remember Christie bombing it.
