Simpson rushing the ball against the New York Jets on December 16, 1973, breaking the NFL's single-season rushing record. The card is numbered #29 in the set. The back of the card reads: O.J. SIMPSON: THE 2,000 YARD MAN Dashing through the snow, Buffalo's O.J. Simpson is on his way to a 200-yard game against the New York Jets in December, 1973. His big performance, on the last day of the regular season, sent him past Jim Brown's one-year NFL rushing record of 1,863 yards. When the cold afternoon was over, O.J. had soared to a new record of 2,003 yards.
