The presence of the Baltimore Colts franchise made 1950 an interesting year from a statistical standpoint. Lots of highlights:
October 2, 1950 - Chicago Cards Jim Hardy passes for six touchdowns vs the Baltimore Colts
(55-13), five of them to Bob Shaw, also a record.
October 22, 1950 - Bob Waterfield kicks a record nine extra points with no misses as the Rams
crush Baltimore 70-27, a record score in an NFL regular season game.
October 22, 1950 - Norm Van Brocklin, Los Angeles Rams, completed 11 consecutive passes vs.
Detroit Lions (10), October 15, and Baltimore Colts (1).
November 19, 1950 - The New York Giants trailed Baltimore 13-0 in the second quarter when they
benched Charley Conerly and the A-formation and switched to Travis Tidwell and the T-formation.
They rallied for a 55-20 victory that included 423 rushing yards.
November 26, 1950 - George Buksar and Ernie Zalejski, Baltimore Colts, combine for a 99-yard
return of an intercepted lateral (18 yards by Buksar and 81 by Zalejski) vs. Washington Redskins.
December 3, 1950 - Cloyce Box of the Detroit Lions had 302 yards receiving and scored four
touchdowns against the Baltimore Colts.
