Garo Yepremian

Of the four kickers listed above, the two that stand out to me are Yepremian and Norwood. Norwood missed a 47 yard field goal with eight seconds left in Super Bowl XXV that gave the New York Giants a 20-19 victory over the Buffalo Bills. Garo Yepremian may be responsible for the biggest blooper in Super Bowl history. With less than 3 minutes left in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl VII and the Miami Dolphins comfortably ahead of the Washington Redskins 14-0, Yepremian was sent out to attempt a 42 yard field goal to ice the game. The kick was blocked and the ball came straight back to Yepremian who, instead of simply falling on the ball, decided to attempt a pass. The ball slipped out of his hands, he then batted it up in the air, and it wound up in the hands of Redskin CB Mike Bass who returned it for a TD. Miami was able to hold on to a 14-7 victory to become the only team in NFL history to go undefeated throughout the regular and post season. But the Yepremian play will live on for generations.
