Obscure sports trivia

If it’s like how marching band ratings are given, you could be right. “Superior” is the top category, followed by “Excellent” and “Good”, which pretty much means meh shitty vs. why do you even try, shitty.

 

So is 11 by belichick the all time record for Super Bowl appearances as a player/ac/hc/owner? I know reeves had nine between the cowboys/broncos/falcons. Can think of anyone else.

 

It was the Wanderers, in 1872. Team based in London (not Bolton), won 6 of the first 9 FA Cups.

 

A total of 21 field goals of 60 yards or longer have been kicked in NFL history. Who are the three players who have done it more than once?

 

Greg the Leg and Janikowski?

 

Those are two. The third one did it far more recently.

 

Tucker?

 

No.
And this might be an unfair question if you haven't been dialed in to today's games. The third guy did it today.

 

Maher?

 

Correct. He hit a 62-yarder today against the Jets at the end of the first half, to go along with a 62-yarder he hit against the Eagles last season.

Janikowski was the first to do it, in 2009 and 2011. Zuerlein did it in 2012 and 2015.

 

Maher is my fantasy kicker, which is the only reason I knew he’d kicked a 60-plus today.

 

While we’re on the subject of NFL kicking, who was the last kicker to successfully make a free-kick field goal?
