I've never heard that term, but I would assume it means a touchdown scored from a play that originated at the line of scrimmage, as opposed to a touchdown scored on a kickoff return.
when you score a touchdown within the 20 yard line(line of scrimmage must be withinredzoneto

Only if the kicked ball doesn't go beyond the line of scrimmage or a defensive player touches the ball after it crosses the line of scrimmage.
It depends on if the kicking team player was 10 yards past the line of scrimmage and also on whether it was a punt or kick off. If it was a kick off and the player was 10 yards past the line of scrimmage, then it would be a touchdown. If the player was not 10 yards past the line of scrimmage, then it is a penalty. If it is a punt the ball is placed where the player hit the ball.
Shaud Williams' 80-Yard Touchdown Run, of course!!
A 90 yard touchdown pass from Bert Jones to Roger Carr against the Jets in 1975.

No. This distance is used because it is far enough from the line of scrimmage that it's difficult for the defense to interfere with the kick, but not so far that the kick is difficult to make.
99 yards ... a play that goes from the offensive team's one yard line all the way for a touchdown.
Well if your only talking about a run play from scrimmage, Fred Taylor's 90-yard touchdown run in January 2000 vs. Miami is the longest run play in NFL playoff history! The second longest being Ray Rice's 83-yard touchdown run on the first snap from scrimmage against the New England Patriots
Attempt an extra (1) point, by kicking a field goal.Attempt a (2)-point conversion by running or passing it, an the line of scrimmage is at the 5-yard line.
