Here's another classic:
Uwe Von Schamann, 1984 Dolphins
9-for-19 FGs
66-for-70 XPs
A kicker with 70 extra-point attempts that doesn't crack 100 points scored is just INSANE!!! Easily the lowest FG/XP ratio in NFL history. That's a good stat, too. Gotta love these. Heck, with Marino throwing 48 TD passes that year how the heck was Von Schamann supposed to kick any field goals?
Marino was a fantasy BEAST that year!!
One final note about Hornung that I forgot: He also missed two extra points in 1964 after previously converting 149 of 151. He went 41-of-43 that year, so he missed a total of 28 kicks in 1964. Something wasn't right that year and he didn't kick again after that season. Crazy.
