Which team's single-season scoring record did the Minnesota Vikings break in 1998?
Who is the first player listed alphabetically in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame?
How many sacks did Reggie White end up with?
If you said the Vikings erased the Washington Redskins' old mark of 541 points in 1983, Herb Adderley is the first player
alphabetically listed in the Hall of Fame and the Minister of Defense finished with 192½ sacks, you would be correct.
Whether you had those pieces of football knowledge or not, you can have
all those and more at your fingertips in the 488 pages of the 1999 NFL
Record & Fact Book, published by Workman Publishing and the NFL. The
book includes complete 1998 season statistics, a
year-by-year history of the NFL, regular-season and postseason records,
a rules digest and much more.
