Garo Yepremian
As of my knowledge, as of the end of the 2020 NFL season, Adam Vinatieri holds the record for the most game-winning field goals in NFL history with 29 made field goals.
Jim O'Brien kicked the game winning field goal for the Baltimore Colts in Super bowl 5.
Tom Nichol. Nichol, a freshman, kicked three field goals in Iowa's 9-7 victory over Michigan in Ann Arbor.
48 yards is the length of several George Blanda field goals, the last of which came in October of 1970 in a game against the Kansas City Chiefs, a kick which forged a 17-17 tie. The following week George kicked a game-winning 52 yard field goal against the Cleveland Browns after throwing a game-tying TD pass to Warren Wells earlier in the 4th quarter. This FG was, however, not his longest. On December 3, 1961 George Blanda kicked a 55 yard field goal against the San Diego Chargers while a member of World Champion Houston Oilers.
A Game-Winning Field Goal! A Game-Winning Field Goal!
Dirk Borgognone kicked a 68 yard field goal in a game for Reno High School vs. Sparks High School (Nevada), September 27, 1985.
Paxton has snapped on 10 game winning field goals, including the game-winning 48 -yarder at the end of Super Bowl XXXVI
The longest field goal in NFL history is a 3-way tie between Tom Dempsey, Jason Elam, and Sebastian Janikowski. Tom Dempsey's however was the game winning kick that happened just as timed expired.
In 1970, George Blanda was just getting started. He threw a tying touchdown pass with 1:34 remaining and then kicked the game-winning 52-yard field goal in the final seconds the following week in a 23-20 win over Cleveland. George Blanda died September 27, 2010, just last week. But in 1970, Frank Dempsey (with the Chucago Bears) kicked a 63 yard field goal to win the game. So I guess that answer would be FRANK DEMPSEY.
BYU currently holds the longest home game winning streak in college football with 18 wins
The all time longest NFL game is the Christmas Day, 1971 playoff game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins that ended 7:40 into the second overtime period when Garo Yepremian of the Dolphins kicked a 37 yard field goal. The longest NFL regular season game that didn't end in a tie was played October 31, 2010 between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. Ryan Succop of the Chiefs kicked a 35 yard field goal as time expired in the overtime period to give the Chiefs the win.
According to documented sources, the longest high school football field goal was 68 yards by Dirk Borgognone of Reno, NV in 1985. (There is an undocumented 70-yard kick which would be the longest in any US football venue.) In 1971 John Woodward of Elk Grove H.S. in California kicked a 67 yard field goal vs. Grant H.S. in Sacramento California. In 1999, Rusty Curry of Duluth H.S. in Georgia, kicked a 67 yard field goal vs Norcross H.S. which came off a free kick after a fair catch. In 2012, Austin Rehkow of Central Valley High (Washington) also kicked a 67 yard field goal, sending their game against Sadle Park High into overtime, where Central Valley eventually won.
