the game tying on was 48 yards.....not a chip shot and obviously a huge pressure kick that many would miss
ask the Bears kicker
man, I really thought he pushed it wide and it magically hooks back in
57 yard....what are the odds a kicker makes that with the game on the line....less than 15-20%?
GZ not only has a great leg, but performs well under pressure.
I have no idea what the odds are when under that kind of pressure. There can't be many examples if the "pool" is limited, say, to 50+ field goals to win/tie from begin in the playoffs.
What I loved is that it was such a fearless kick. Forget that it was a perfect, no-doubt-about-it effort. I'm talking about how he DROVE the heck outta that thing. With his leg, under those conditions, you could imagine him easing up a little, worrying more about accuracy than distance, being a little tentative.
Nope.
