Yah, that's a damn shame. 3 of the five cities of the AFC west are no longer represented either with SD, OAK, and SEA out. Only Seattle still have a team. I don't like change.
As a Raider fan, I absolutely loved this. The confidence in janikowski was always amazing, just get to the logo and kick it. That was my motto. We had such a shity offense for so long, our best players were literally our kicker and our punter. Was there when you broke the all time Raiders scoring record, let's go polish Canon
@Sponge Bob Janikowski could've made it if the conditions had been right. If the wind had been at his back or even without wind, it's very possible for Janikowski to have made that kick. Matt Prater has hit 75+ yarders in practice on occasion. Others have done so as well.
Janikowski was a great kicker, no doubt. The coaches might have thought something like, "Well, on a 76-yd attempt, the ball is spotted at our own 34-yd line, which is almost exactly where we'd kick off from... so, if he can send kickoffs to the endzone for touchbacks, then why not try this one for a FG?" Maybe the only reason not to was the wind.
It was at least 20 yards short since it has to be like 10 feet off the ground. So basically he may have still missed a 56 yard kick to the right, nothing special.
@@ernestogastelum9123 Kinda like how the Oakland Raiders moved to LA, then eventually moved back to Oakland. Just can't get used to calling them the Las Vegas Raiders now. No matter where they go, I'll always call them the Oakland Raiders lol
Against the wind and he got it down to the 1 or 2 yard line. So he kicked it at least 64 yards. That's impressive. I wonder how close would he had been if the wind was blowing against his back. Such a classic raiders move 😄
If it was against the Broncos in Denver, it might have had a chance on distance. At that point, you’re kicking as hard as you can though. Accuracy goes out the window. Just like golf when you swing all out, you have no idea where it’s going.
@@Sam-bg2ur so has Justin Tucker who did it from 80 yards. But u will never hit that with 11 blockers in front of u and 11 more jumping to block it down. Just impossible; plenty of people can hit from 70+ with no pressure.
The longest attempt I ever heard of was 112 yards, by Jan Stenerud when he was at Montana State. They were pinned down deep and didn't have a good punter, so he kicked out of his endzone and got it to midfield. P.S. He was in college on a ski jumping scholarship.
Something along people don't know about janikoswki is that he regularly practiced kicking 70 yard field goals. Definitely not ideal conditions but he does have the ability.
He retired at the right time, he was injured a lot during the end of his career and his final ever kick attempt solidified that as he pulled something badly in his kicking leg. It was a big kick before half in the 2017 Dallas Seattle wildcard matchup and Seattle was kinda screwed and had to go for only TD's and 2 point conversions rest of game. Besides that tho he's definitely one of the best to ever do it!
Yea it was largely due to injury. But holy shit was that guy fun to watch when he was in his prime. Not many kickers made the games more fun to watch, but he did.
@@CockMcBallsdddfacts this generation got deprived of an absolute legend....When they know your name as a kicker Yeah you did some legendary shyt!!! Salute to him he was definitely a favorite of mine
@@ezekielofjudah3701 sure, punt it with 0 seconds left ......Throwing a hail marry guarantees no scoring for the chargers, while a possible kick 6 would be there for the chargers
I don't think any coach can out-douche Kiffin. His name got him the job from Al at a young age. He immediately became insubordinate when he realized Al controlled the draft and free agency. I'm sure he knew that going in but couldn't pass up a HC job in the NFL at a young age. Essentially, he took Al's money and the padded resume and coached like shit til he was fired - which he knew would be soon. His fuck over of Tennessee was worse. Amazingly. Today, you can now find him terrorizing the young women's dorms at Ole Miss.
I had my fill of him when he coached USC. It was great when then-Athletic Director Pat Haden fired him on the plane returning from Phoenix after a rout loss to Arizona State. Me, I would have fired him in the airport, barred him from the flight and directed him to the Southwest Airlines counter where they would have plenty of PHX-LAX flights to accommodate him 😂
Who does he think he is? Justin Tucker? But seriously, this puts JT's 66 yarder into perspective. Sebastien's kick made it to the 3-yard line where it was caught, so a 63/64-yard kick and it was hooking right by about 10 yards. Add 2 more yards and Justin Tucker's kick, and yes, it hit the crossbar but was pretty much right down the middle.
@@weponx7122 - I’m tellin you, you gotta trust me on this one. We had a better shot at a 76 yarder than anything Russell could do. He honestly found ways to mess up the simplest things.
It should be noted that Moseley's and Danelo's long attempts were both FREE KICKS. This meant that they got to use a tee and the defense had to line up 10 yards away. Free kicks are seldom used, but are still a legal, legitimate play. Any time a team makes a fair catch, they are entitled to attempt a free kick. There is no reason for a team to try them unless they make a fair catch at the end of a half or game ... which rarely happens. Belichick could have done it at the end of their SB game with Atlanta when Edelman made a fair catch with 2 or 3 seconds left in regulation. I've got to believe that Janikowski's 76 yard boot is by far the longest actual field goal attempted. I've got to give the Raiders credit for having the "footballs" to even try it because there was some risk. And so nice that Shane Lechler was the holder. Janikowski and Lechler are one of the all-time Kicker-Punter pairings, both in terms of talent and years of service together on the same team.
He wanted out. Never wanted Russel and was probably sick of hearing that Jan kow could make 80 yard field goals. It was a giant middle finger to Al Davis.
True, without googling do you know how much he makes annually at Ole Miss? lets just say WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYy more than you do. 3.9 Million
This was prior to the Alabama/Auburn game. I think most teams have learned their lesson about trying this and not thinking about the ball being returned.
I remember back in NFL Quarterback Club 98 for the N64. There was a code you could put in to where you could kick 100 yard field goals. Me and my friend played a whole game just kicking long as field goals the whole game to see who would win
@Avocado?? Mango? Banana???? well it’s his opinion on what he thinks about the nfl, but I for one don’t care for all the political problems like blm because I just want to watch an nfl game nothing else
I attended a Michigan State football game some 20 years ago. In pregame, the opposing kickers were showing off to the crowd and one upping each other. Eventually, all three of the MSU long kickers took a shot at hitting a field goal with the ball at their own 30. All three made the kick, much to the amazement/delight of the crowd. That is one college team, so obviously there are a good number of other kickers capable of hitting that long a shot. So why do we not see more attempts like this one in both college and pros? It cost the Raiders nothing to miss, and could have added 3 points to the score. I think somewhere there is a kicker who needs to lobby his coach to let him take that shot every chance they get until he sets some kind of crazy record.
because they can launch the ball at a much shallower angle during warmups without the threat of a defense to block it. If they tried those type of kicks on a real play it will more than likely be blocked.
I always wonder how on kickoffs, sometimes the kicker can kick it through the uprights. That’s from the 35, just about where Janikowski kicked it from here. I’m guessing the running start and it being on a tee is the reason.
I wasn’t expecting it to be good, but I was at least expecting a touchback at least. But I guess the wind was pretty strong to have only made it to the 10 yard line
It was 76 yards into the wind. What did you expect? Meanwhile, Janikowski is chilling in his mansion and you are a total nobody living in government housing.
That 76-yard field goal attempt by Sebastian Janikowski for the Oakland Raiders in Week4 of the 2008 NFL season was clearly not into the wind as the game TV broadcast announcer mischaracterized it! You can clearly see on the videotape that the 2 red flags at the top rear of the goal posts/uprights are blown by the wind backward towards the end zone stands and end zone TV camera not forward towards Janikowski!
Imagine the guy up in the production room having to edit the graphic. Producer: They're kicking it from 76! Graphic Guy: The numbers don't go that high!!!
If it was WITH the wind, he possibly had it. With NO wind, he easily has it from 66+ in this scenario. The fact it was INTO the wind and only came up around 10 yards short at 76 yards is OUTSTANDING. Go Raiders!
I believe it he hit a 70 yarder in pregame but they use different harder balls in the actual game witch makes it harder personally if it was a regular ball I think he could hit a 80-90 yard field goal
"with the wind in his face." While the flags on top of the goal post are moving towards the game in the direction of the kick! C'mon man! The wind was to his back!
@@dimwit818 On 11/8/70 he made that kick. I was watching the game @ a friends house on his b & w tv. We we're goin crazy cause this beat our Det. Lions 19-17
@@dimwit818 Equivalent to the modern day 47 yard line as the goal post was in the front of the end zone for Tom's kick. They have since moved the goal post 10 yards back (back of the endzone) so it would not interfere with plays
I was at the game against the Jets in Oakland when Brett Farve was with the Jets and the game went into OT. The teams went back and forth until he kicked a 57 yrd FG to end the game. At the time it was a NFL record FG. Longest FG to end OT. It still might be a NFL record.
"76" is a great number. For some reason, when I tighten up my wheel nuts, I torque them to 76 foot-pounds. There were 76 trombones in _The Music Man._ I don't know why, but seventy-six just sounds right. It would have been great if he had made it, and with a strong tailwind, it might have been possible.
I saw him kick every kick at home in college and a few on the road. There is no doubt in my mind he could hit 3 out of 10 from 70 when he is on and no wind at all. I have see him hit it through from the 35 thru the goalposts into the crowd at least 15 times with a running start. BTW when he was in his early twenties watch him run down a few kick returners. He had better than average speed and he would lay a lick on you. He is a big old boy as we say in the south and he came from rough and tumble eastern European soccer.
So much going on in this video. Lane kiffin coaching the raiders, jamarcus russell was the starting qb, Jim nantz saying wind is against sea bass, raider were up 15-0 and went on the lose the game being out scored 28-3 in the second half, and all that’s not even to mention the fact they are trying a 76yd kick.
There are kickers who can hit from 80 yards out under ideal conditions. That is to say, without the helmet and pads on, not being rushed, in good weather conditions. It becomes more difficult when you're facing 11 guys that don't want you to do it and you're weighed down with the regulation gear.

Kicking without a defensive line is much different than during the game. The angle has to be much higher... Resulting in a much shorter kick. Science
because they can launch the ball at a much shallower angle during warmups without the threat of a defense to block it. If they tried those type of kicks on a real play it will more than likely be blocked.

I always wonder how on kickoffs, sometimes the kicker can kick it through the uprights. That’s from the 35, just about where Janikowski kicked it from here. I’m guessing the running start and it being on a tee is the reason.
Not going to lie I was hoping it would go i
I wasn’t expecting it to be good, but I was at least expecting a touchback at least. But I guess the wind was pretty strong to have only made it to the 10 yard line
The crazy thing is that his leg was so good that they even thought they could attempt the FG.
When Jamarcus Russell is so bad, they'd rather kick a 76yarder than even allow him to throw a hailmary
30 more yards and he Would've only missed by a lot
That kick was the equivalent of Evel Knievel jumping Snake Cannon. Made it about half way there. Big build up then 💩💩💩
It was 76 yards into the wind. What did you expect? Meanwhile, Janikowski is chilling in his mansion and you are a total nobody living in government housing.
@@ckobo84 Haha right. Clever way to punt I guess.
@@brentshira3373 Like one of your chromosomes. Half way there. But came Down a lottle short.
I’m so confused I was waiting for him to just get drilled
Jamarcus Russell had the NFL’s strongest arm while Sebastian Janikowski had the NFL’s strongest leg that year.
That was quite the powerful duo.
Russell also had the strongest stomach all he did was eat
they also were the fastest team
And the fattest team
And how many Super Bowls did they win?
That 76-yard field goal attempt by Sebastian Janikowski for the Oakland Raiders in Week4 of the 2008 NFL season was clearly not into the wind as the game TV broadcast announcer mischaracterized it! You can clearly see on the videotape that the 2 red flags at the top rear of the goal posts/uprights are blown by the wind backward towards the end zone stands and end zone TV camera not forward towards Janikowski!
The Raiders lead the game 15-0 against San Diego Chargers back in the day and now both teams are in Las Vegas and Los Angeles
I love the fact that sebastian was like... Yeah man no prob...I'll put 3 on the board and well go into halftime
nah
Now I wanna see tuck hit this
What a kick 🦵. Best man he’s a legend
Imagine the guy up in the production room having to edit the graphic.
Producer: They're kicking it from 76!
Graphic Guy: The numbers don't go that high!!!
Justin tucker with the record of 66 yards! Hate the ravens but damn that’s some respect
If it was WITH the wind, he possibly had it.
With NO wind, he easily has it from 66+ in this scenario. The fact it was INTO the wind and only came up around 10 yards short at 76 yards is OUTSTANDING.
Go Raiders!
Didnt look into the wind...the flags on goal posts were going with the kick
The vodka bottles in his back pockets slowed his kick up just enough.
I personally saw Janokowski kick a 75 yard FG during warm ups when he played at FSU..... it happened at UVA Scott Stadium.
I believe it he hit a 70 yarder in pregame but they use different harder balls in the actual game witch makes it harder personally if it was a regular ball I think he could hit a 80-90 yard field goal
These are the type of shenanigans that make us the Raiders these past 20+ years come on Raiders
Gotta love Phil Simms. 76 yard fg “Jim, 5the wind is in his face.” Ya, and there’s also 3/4 of a football field between him and the goalpost.
Those were the days when the NFL was still watchable.
well last Sunday we got something 10 yards shorter
OB JaMarcus Russell of the Raiders was one of the biggest "busts" of all time--he ranks right up there with San Diego's Ryan Leaf
JaMarcus Russell, he could throw a football 60 0:55 yards from his knees!
"with the wind in his face." While the flags on top of the goal post are moving towards the game in the direction of the kick! C'mon man! The wind was to his back!
Who’s here after Justin Tucker made the 66 yard field goal?
Whose here after Justin Tucker just creamed one from 66
Man you must be real confident in your kicker if you’re letting him kick from your own 40
Tom Dempsey hit one from his own 37 to win a game in 1970. 🧐
@@dimwit818 On 11/8/70 he made that kick. I was watching the game @ a friends house on his b & w tv. We we're goin crazy cause this beat our Det. Lions 19-17
@@dimwit818 Equivalent to the modern day 47 yard line as the goal post was in the front of the end zone for Tom's kick. They have since moved the goal post 10 yards back (back of the endzone) so it would not interfere with plays
Oh good, I was hoping someone was paying attention to the location of the goal posts at the time. 😁
I was at the game against the Jets in Oakland when Brett Farve was with the Jets and the game went into OT. The teams went back and forth until he kicked a 57 yrd FG to end the game. At the time it was a NFL record FG. Longest FG to end OT. It still might be a NFL record.
"76" is a great number. For some reason, when I tighten up my wheel nuts, I torque them to 76 foot-pounds. There were 76 trombones in _The Music Man._ I don't know why, but seventy-six just sounds right. It would have been great if he had made it, and with a strong tailwind, it might have been possible.
Brandon Aubrey would have made that
Give him credit. Who else in the history of the NFL has ever tried a field goal from that far away?
I saw him kick every kick at home in college and a few on the road. There is no doubt in my mind he could hit 3 out of 10 from 70 when he is on and no wind at all. I have see him hit it through from the 35 thru the goalposts into the crowd at least 15 times with a running start. BTW when he was in his early twenties watch him run down a few kick returners. He had better than average speed and he would lay a lick on you. He is a big old boy as we say in the south and he came from rough and tumble eastern European soccer.
So much going on in this video. Lane kiffin coaching the raiders, jamarcus russell was the starting qb, Jim nantz saying wind is against sea bass, raider were up 15-0 and went on the lose the game being out scored 28-3 in the second half, and all that’s not even to mention the fact they are trying a 76yd kick.
There are kickers who can hit from 80 yards out under ideal conditions. That is to say, without the helmet and pads on, not being rushed, in good weather conditions. It becomes more difficult when you're facing 11 guys that don't want you to do it and you're weighed down with the regulation gear.
Justin Tucker could attempt this in Detroit and make it.
This is back when the NFL was interesting smh
1:07 whats the point of even putting up the nets like lets be realistic
@Glenn Beck lol
He’s made them in practice people.
So has Eddie Pinéro. He’s done it for you guys and for the Bears.
The last OG Kicker in that Era
