16thBBall Fan Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 That was impressive the Lions should have had someone back by the goalpost to know it down. In my opinion he is the best kicker of all time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also risk the guy attempting to jump up to knock it down accidentally deflecting it backwards and helping it go in. The Ravens should have never had a chance to kick that 66 yarder, Because they should have been called for a delay of game the play before with 4 seconds left. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper_Dad Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 3 yards short of the Guinness World Record set in 1975 by Ove Johansson of Abilene Christian. I can see a 70 yarder being made in the next few years in either the NFL or college. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Lions like losing games on record breaking FGs (see Tom Dempsey) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChickenWyngz Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 This is a lot more impressive than anyone realizes. You can see the extra step back he takes to have a "run up" almost equivalent to a kickoff, and then a little crow hop step to start. He did all of that in one of the most time/fundamental sensitive moments in sports, and made it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said he's been working on it for about a year. So, while it may be the first time that we've seen him do it in a game...it's something he has been practicing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't change how impressive it is at all, IMO. Also, not implying that was your goal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to point out how long he's been working on it, before every other teams' fans expects their kicker to be able to go out and do something similar. Some of these guys have a booming leg...but, to change their routine/approach to the ball, might as well be asking them to learn Mandarin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
