Only one I've never heard of was Kapp. TWO of those 7 TD games were against the Skins.

The only one I didn't recognize was Burk. The rest I could even tell you a little about their careers. I thought them all pretty famous in their day.

So I looked up Burk - couple cool tidbits from his life after football: He became an NFL referee/official and (1) worked the game in which Kapp tied his record; and (2) was the back judge on the famous Immaculate Reception and was the official to initially signal it a TD.
