Week 14 - 1985: New Jersey Generals vs Tampa Bay Bandits

Week 14 - Sunday, May 26, 1985 Attendance: 44,539 TV: ABC Holder Rick Partridge picked up a dropped snap on a field goal attempt and ran 9 yards for the winning touchdown at 3:53 of overtime Sunday, rallying the New Jersey Generals to a 30-24 triumph over the Tampa Bay Bandits. Partridge, the Generals' punter, mishandled the snap from center when putting the ball down for an attempted 27-yard field goal by Roger Ruzek. He then picked up the ball and scooted down the left sidelines for the TD as the Generals completed a majestic comeback before an estimated Tampa crowd of 32,000. The score was set up by Doug Flutie's 49-yard pass to Clarence Collins to the Bandits' 18. Source: http://www.oursportscentral.com/usfl
