The day Jerry Rice surpassed the NFL record for touchdowns
THIS IS A PLACARD, not a little card. It is LARGE 11 inches by 17 inches
IT'S AMAZING LOOKING
Quarterback Steve Young went under center on Sept. 5, 1994. The San Francisco 49er dropped back, dipped and faked a handoff to running back Ricky Watters. He continued to drop back, tapped the ball with his right hand and then heaved it toward the end zone and wide receiver Jerry Rice, who was covered by Los Angeles Raiders cornerback Albert Lewis.
The ball was underthrown, but Rice stopped short to pull it out of the air at the 1-yard line as Lewis' momentum carried him too far. He tucked it into his stomach with two hands, and as he took a hit from free safety Eddie Anderson, fell across the goal line and into NFL history books with his 127th career touchdown.
Rice came into the first Monday Night Football game of the season with 124 total touchdowns, two short of Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown's NFL record of 126.
Rice surpassed Brown's mark with his third touchdown of the game with four minutes and five seconds left
