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. A lump sum contract may be used where the contractor is able to provide an accurate estimate of the costs of the project, including the schedule and the scope of the entire project.
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).
The ball traveled 61 yards through the air, which is a really, really long distance to throw a football. It got us thinking, what's the longest pass in football history, strictly through the airâi.e., no yards after the catch, just the distance the football traveled from the quarterback's hand to a receiver's arms. Turns out, Rodgers' Hail Mary isn't even near the top. According to the Rochester Journal, in 1935, Chicago Bears quarterback Fred Crawford tossed an 85-yard bomb to receiver Eddie Kawal, and this appears to be the longest through-the-air pass on record.
