Yeah, that was pretty amazing. On the same day Cardinals kicker kicked a 68 yard attempt short and it was returned for a 109 yard touchdown.
When I was growing up the vast majority of field goal kickers were head on kickers, not soccer style. Dempsey was a head on kicker. At one point my Washington team, back in the 80s, had a guy named "Mark Moseley". He broke a few records himself, just not that one. This kid, this weekend, beat Dempsey with a soccer style kick. How times have changed.
