Aubrey's (Butter) missed FG

[DallasInDC]

Am i the only one who was glad to have the perfect record over heading into the postseason? I always felt perfect stats create more pressure above what is already a high pressure situation. This allows him to go out and do what he does without the perfect streak hanging over him (in a playoff scenario).

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

not me

 

[Momanpr100]

Yes we actually needed that, I was thinking the same lol. Didn't want to end the streak in the playoffs lol

It is better to get it out of the way and him hitting that 50 yarder straight down the middle of the end of the game was good for him.. But yes if he had kept the record it is much more pressure going in you know much like the New England patriots had a perfect record and got beat by the wild card team in the Super Bowl did lose that perfect season I think they would have traded the game or a loss along the way in the regular season for that Super Bowl ring

 

[Danny White]

I agree.

you know the irony there where Brett Maher was great all year and the last game of the year against Washington started the whole yips

Exactly. It gave him the chance to miss one and then come back and regain his confidence in meaningless game.

Greg Olsen tried to warn that blabbermouth Burkhardt. But it was too late

Aubrey is fine. He went 5 for 5 on XPs and the block was an offensive line breakdown. He doinked one and drilled a 50 yarder.

No. Kickers are all about confidence. Missing doesn’t help. Absolutely not

 

[TheHerd]

Sort of agree, and hitting the 50 yarder after the miss was key. No worries now. I had visions of Anderson with the Vikings.

Yes that 50 yarder straight down the middle was a sigh of relief

i agree with you .

Hitting the 50 yarder straight down the middle got any confidence back

 

[glimmerman]

That was not his fault. And it pisses me off. You can’t block and do your job for 2 or 3 seconds. With points on the line. We made a ST play later and that was great but block for this man. He gets you points and his kicks are good..

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

My sentiments exactly. 38/38 going into the postseason would have been a ton of pressure. He's going to be a difference maker.

 

[Boysdaboys]

Remember that Vikings kicker who was perfect all year. And missed in the postseason to clinch a SB berth?

That's why I'm glad it's over.

 

[Sydla]

I thought him nailing that 50 yarder was the most important thing heading into the playoffs.

 

[rags747]

Officially he missed two today so he’s 36/38 I believe For the season.

You're not alone brother. I wondered if I was the only one starting to dread that this guy was perfect. Yips are just part of the package. Have to get over one first.
