Hi BeanieFan11 ( talk), article created 16 December and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to what look to be reliable sources (I am no expert on American football); hook fact is interesting enough for me, as a non-expert, mentioned in the article and checks out to sources cited. Looks like we are just awaiting a QPQ on this one - Dumelow ( talk) 11:58, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply
