Who holds the world record for the longest punt in a football game?

Here's a hint. If you're thinking of Dr. Steve O'Neal's monster 98-yard job in '69 with the Jets, fugeddaboutit. That's the NFL record, NOT the world record....

OK. Since nobody has the answer, here it is.

Zenon Andrusyshyn, a former Cowboys draft pick out of UCLA as am increasingly rare combo P/K, uncorked a 108 yard punt for Toronto against Edmonton back in the '70s. It went out the back of the end zone for a single. The feat was matched in recent years by Chris Milo for Saskatchewan vs. Hamilton.

Andrusyshyn later returned to the NFL and also played a few years in the USFL. He's in the CFL HOF and is a member of UCLA's All-Century Team.

I'd rather watch FCS than the NFL most weeks. It's sad when you can't even tolerate the longtime quarterback on your favorite team.

I'd also like to ask, "Rated by WHOM?!?"

People who rely strictly on "ratings" tend to forget that Romo has a severe penchant for throwing the poorly-timed pick and for snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory....

The winning percentage of 69 puts Tony Romo ahead of legends like John Elway, Dan Marino, Johnny Unitas, Steve Young, Brett Favre, and Kurt Warner. It is also better than current stars Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and better than any quarterback to have begun his career since Romo took over in Dallas.

Rated by people that matter and are more unbiased than yourself.
65% completion - 7th in NFL history
7.9 YPC
8.1 YPA - 4th in NFL history
273 YPG - taking out rookie season...Over 25K for career
177 TDs (1.4 per game)
1.95:1 TD:INT ratio
320 Completions of over 20 yards
70 completions over 40 yards
Never a rating under 90


One of the most popular criticisms of Tony Romo is that he “throws too many interceptions” and that you need to “take the bad with the good” if he’s your quarterback. Quite frankly, almost every team in the league would love to have the touchdown and interception percentages that Romo possesses. With only 3.0 percent of his passes being intercepted, Romo is tied with first ballot Hall of Famers Dan Marino and Troy Aikman—neither of whom would be criticized for throwing “too many interceptions.” That number is also better than John Elway, Kurt Warner, Ben Roethlisberger, Eli Manning, Warren Moon, Jim Kelly, and Johnny Unitas—just to name a few. Again, where are these players’ critics? Where are the people saying that these quarterbacks “can’t win because they throw too many interceptions?” Better yet is Romo’s touchdown percentage. With an unbelievable 5.7 percent of his passes going for touchdowns, Tony Romo is the best of any active quarterback in that category. If I’m building a team and can choose a quarterback who throws for a league-best percentage of touchdowns while also throwing fewer interceptions than almost all of the elite quarterbacks in NFL history, I’ll take it in a heartbeat.

Romo’s current career passer rating stands at an impressive 95.4. This number puts him fifth all time and better than every Hall of Fame quarterback in league history other than Steve Young’s 96.8. By comparison, here are some of the quarterback ratings of a few of the league’s most legendary quarterbacks:
Tom Brady—93.5
Troy Aikman—81.6
Warren Moon—80.9
John Elway—79.9
Johnny Unitas—78.2
Terry Bradshaw—70.9


Other than the fumbled PAT snap...what has Romo done to be the reason the Cowboys haven't won in the playoffs?

"He gets sacked too much"
-False. Despite what can only be considered to be a slightly above average offensive line during his tenure in Dallas, Romo has been sacked on only 4.89 percent of his pass attempts. This puts him sixth in that statistic among active quarterbacks and 19th all time.


4th Quarter stats?
2010 4th Quarter Statistics
43/68, 529 yards, 3 TD, 3 INT, 83.5 QB Rating

2009 4th Quarter Statistics
100/157, 1,316 yards, 8 TD, 2 INT, 101.8 QB Rating

2008 4th Quarter Statistics
69/109, 946 yards, 9 TD, 1 INT, 114.7 QB Rating

2007 4th Quarter Statistics
73/120, 1,072 yards, 10 TD, 7 INT, 93.5 QB Rating

2006 4th Quarter Statistics
68/100, 949 yards, 4 TD, 4 INT, 95.0 QB Rating

Total 4th Quarter Statistics
353/554, 4812 yards, 34 TD, 17 INT, 99.0 QB Rating

Not only are these numbers great, but they are actually better than the already excellent numbers Romo puts up throughout the rest of the game. It’s unbelievable that NFL “experts” are paid to call Tony Romo “overrated” and say that he “can’t perform in the clutch” when he has been incredibly successful over the course of his career in the 4th quarter of games.



I took those from an older article, but the trend of good ratings in the 4th quarter has continued...to go with more situational stats

2012 stats
Quarter Att Comp % Yds Avg TD INT 20+ Rat
4th Quarter 187 122 65.2 1,448 7.7 41 12 4 1 16 101.2
4th Quarter within 7 99 64 64.6 740 7.5 39 5 2 8 95.5
Overtime 13 9 69.2 82 6.3 0 0 0 86.1

Half Att Comp Pct Yds Avg Lng TD Int 1st 1st% 20+ Sck Rate
1st Half 292 186 63.7 2,075 7.1 65 8 12 97 33.2 19 14 76.8
2nd Half 343 230 67.1 2,746 8.0 85 20 7 131 38.2 35 21 102.3
Last Two Minutes of Half 108 62 57.4 689 6.4 39 4 3 34 31.5 6 4 77.3


Yeah, he's actually really damn good late in the game.

What about the score?

Long story short, he is the greatest QB in Cowboy history and anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron...though we already knew that about Some Here.

His career in Dallas was too short. After IDW shit the bed in the '83 playoffs the job was his until he got hurt.
