Some facts for the Longwell lovers and haters ...
Longwell in just 8 seasons has become the team's all-time:
~~ scorer with 964 career points;
~~ ranks first in team history with 206 career field goals;
~~ PAT leader with 346 career PATs
But by far Longwell's most stunning accomplishment is that he is the FIFTH-MOST ACCURATE FIELD GOAL SPECIALIST IN NFL HISTORY at 82 percent. This despite kicking outdoors (which half the kickers don't) and in some of the worst weather in the league -- on the frozen tundra.
Another stat that may surprise some of you is Longwell has led the NFL in points scored since he came into the league in 1997.
below is a link to a nice story on Ryan for those who are interested.
