The idiot kicker thing aside, Vanderjagt was as good as anyone to do it, but was not clutch in the slightest. His career with the Cowboys I don't think lasted the season, and he punted and kicked for the Argos for a few seasons after that. So yes, the kick the basically ended his career.

Believe it or not, the Cowboys gave him a 3-year, $4.5 Million contract shortly after he missed that kick with the Colts.

They cut him near the end of his first season with them, eating the remaining 2 years that they owed him.
