The main characteristic of a lump sum contract is that the contractor generally isnât required to provide a detailed breakdown of costs and expenses. Instead, they are paid for completing the overall terms of the contract.

By the way this was the most yards thrown in a game in the history of football at that time. My opinion is that it was the greatest regular season game of all times because of the performance and excitement of two of the greatest icons in the History of Football (Unitas 396 yds, Namath 496 yds).
Future NFL star Bobby Hebert was the only quarterback to pass for at least 3000 yards in every USFL season (1983-1985). He finished with a career total of 11,137 yards, making him the league's career leader. Houston Gamblers QB Jim Kelly is the single season record holder with 5219 yards, set during the 1984 season.
