greatest drive in chiefs defense history!

I was at that game with my daughter. Awesome day at Arrowhead.

Oh to have that dline with Chris Jones in the middle.

I was at this game too. Always remember 3rd and 48ers.

That made me smile! Thanks Nut

Okay, I'm an adult.

Why the **** are you posting a link to TikTok?

I wonder what the record for longest distance to get a first down is. It's hard to envision anything worse than that 4th and 48.

Lolz, that was awesome

I found this on Reddit. I can't take any credit for this research.

Quote:

The longest down since 1998. Two teams have faced 3rd and 50: VIKINGS vs. Packers (12/20/99) and REDSKINS vs. Bengals (9/23/12). Neither team converted.

The Raiders punted to the Chiefs on a 4th and 48 on 10/13/13.

The longest conversion since 1998. Viking Leroy Hoard ran 53 yards up the middle on 3rd and 37 against the Broncos on 10/31/99.

The longest 4th down conversion since 1998. BUFFALO BILL Rob Johnson threw a 40 yard touchdown to Peerless Price against the Colts on 4th and 34 on 9/23/01. (The Colts still won, 30-14.)

I've confirmed those numbers with Pro-Football-Reference.

────────

The longest distance-to-go in NFL history. The Patriots faced 4th down and 63 against the Cowboys in 1971, according to a couple of tweets and news stories I've seen, but individual play data doesn't go back that far so I can't independently verify it.

I remember one of the mods renamed a raiders fan 3rd and 48ers and the butt hurt ensued. LMAO

Yet almost any penalty results in an automatic first down.
