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.
