Flashback Friday and the Philadelphia Eagles: Mike Quick goes 99 yards

Most records were meant to be broken. Some can’t be. You can’t do much better than a 99-yard touchdown. Actually, you can’t do any better, and when anyone who knows anything about the Philadelphia Eagles mentions 99 yards, thoughts go to one person, former “Birds’ wide receiver Mike Quick.

Yes young bucks, before Mike Quick held it down as the color announcer for the Eagles radio team, he was one of the best receivers ‘The Birds’ had ever known. The phrase was ‘if he’s even, he’s leaving’, and that was never more apparent than on a quick pass he took from Ron Jaworski and took to the house.
