The First to Ever Do It - Nov 14, 1943
82 years ago, Chicago Bears QB Sid Luckman threw 7 touchdowns and 433 yards in a single game, setting the record in both categories. In an era where passing barely existed, Luckman paved the way for the future of football.
The Bears won the game, obviously, and Luckman’s 7-TD record still stands more than 80 years later. Joining him at 7 TDs: Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Nick Foles, Joe Kapp, Y.A. Tittle, George Blanda, and Adrian Burk.
First 400-yard game ever. Still tied for the most TD passes in a game. Legend.
