Specs has nowhere near the leg that Gay does either. He was 2/5 from 50+, and I'm surprised he hit 2 of them

I think that I can cut him some slack on this one ......

My wife and I were talking about this... if his accuracy issues of late have been impacted perhaps by an injury.

We never should have tried to kick that 58 yarder. we should have taken the DoG, 5 yards and had Sanchez go for the coffin.

When nobody says a word about the team's place-kicker in a very close game, that can be a good thing ...... it was in the game against the Titans ...... Matt Gay quietly made both of his FG attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in a 20-17 win.

(vs. DOLPHINS, 10/20)


For the 3rd consecutive game, Gay made all of his kicks (FG's and X-tra Points.)

In his last 3 games combined, Gay is 14-for-14 (7 FG's, 7 X-tra Points.)

I think Gay's 60 yard FG would have went in from 60+ I think that he has fought his way back to being a reliable kicker.

On the other hand, future Hall-of-Famer l Justin Tucker l missed 2 FG-attempts in the Ravens' 18-16 loss to the Steelers.

Tucker is 16-for-22 on the season ...... those were great numbers 50 years ago, but rather pedestrian in today's game.
