Mike Kruczek is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on March 15, 1953 in Washington, D.C., United States. Michael Francis Kruczek, born March 15, 1953, is an American football coach. He was also a former quarterback. He is currently the Trinity Preparatory School’s head varsity coach.
Kruczek ended his NFL career with the Washington Redskins in 1980. Kruczek did not throw a touchdown pass during his NFL career. He currently holds the league record of 154 career pass attempts without touchdowns.
Kruczek’s record for consecutive wins as a rookie stood until 1985 when it was broken by Los Angeles Rams quarterback Dieter Brock who, at age 34, won seven consecutive starts to begin his first NFL season. Brock was an unusual rookie, having spent his prior 11 years (1974-1984) playing professionally in the Canadian Football League before joining the Rams.
Kruczek’s UCF Knights squad joined the Mid-American Conference as a football- only member starting in the 2002 season, with many pundits expecting the team to win the MAC’s Eastern Division championship. After a successful debut season in 2002 in which Kruczek’s team finished 7–5 and earned second place in the MAC East, UCF struggled mightily in 2003, going 3-9. Starting quarterback Ryan Schneider was dismissed from the team for academic violations and UCF had a 3-7 record before Kruczek was dismissed with two games remaining in the season. After a loss to MAC bottom dweller Eastern Michigan, Kruczek was fired despite having signed a three-year contract extension at the start of the season. Kruczek was replaced by George O’Leary for the 2004 season.
The Steelers selected him in the second round in 1976 NFL Draft. He played in 29 games from 1976-1979 for the Steelers, and was part of Super Bowl champion squads in 1978-79.
