Way back on November 10th, 1985 Philadelphia Eagles Wide Receiver Mike Quick snagged a slant from Quarterback Ron Jaworski and raced the rest of the way for a 99 yard Touchdown! The Eagles had squandered a 17-0 lead late in the game, and barely even made it to Overtime because Falcons kicker Mick Luckhurst had missed a 42 yarder at the end of regulation that would have won it. After a three and out, Falcons punter Rick Donnelly pinned the Eagles all the way back at their own 1 yard line with quite the brilliant boot. On 2nd down ‘Jaws’ found Mike who would split two Falcons DB’s to take it to the house, and celebrate a walk-off win for Philly 23-17. Happy Birthday Mike!
To The House - Mike Quick goes 99 yards!!
