That dude got way too much time on his hands. But thanks for pointing that out, Captain Obvious.

duh.

Does it make you smart to point out something everyone knows?

It's an obscure rule and it has never happened in the NFL but there is such a thing as a one point safety.

So, in theory, it is possible to score only one point in a game.

See the official NFL rules if you don't believe me.
