Matt Prater, you are ridiculous.

The Broncos kicker headed into the record books when he nailed a 64-yard field goal Sunday, the longest in NFL history. Check it out:

Here's another angle:

The previous record was 63 yards, set by Tom Dempsey in 1970 and later tied by Jason Elam (1998), Sebastian Janikowski (2011) and David Akers (2012).

Kudos to you, Matt. We think it's going to be a very long time until someone breaks this.
