Other than Graham Gano, who made a career-best 63-yard field goal with 1 second remaining to lift the Panthers over the Giants, NFL kickers are having a rough day — no one worse than Green Bay’s Mason Crosby.
He missed four field goals in a game for the first time in his 12-year career, plus he also failed on an extra point. The usually reliable kicker hadn’t missed two attempts in a game in nearly five years and has missed just three of 29 field goal attempts in the postseason for his career. Mason came in having made 10-of-11 field goals this season.
Crosby had plenty of company — any of which would have been preferable for Giants fans, who watched Gano break their hearts and perhaps end their season.
— Chris Boswell missed the extra point in Pittsburgh after the Steelers’ first touchdown — the third he’s missed this season.
— Browns kicker Greg Joseph clanked an extra point off the right upright, the third extra point missed by Cleveland this season. The rookie then pulled a 55-yard field goal for the win left with 5 seconds left in regulation.
— Ravens kicker Justin Tucker had a 48-yard field goal attempt blocked by Cleveland rookie Denzel Ward on the final play of the first half.
— Cincinnati kicker Randy Bullock had a 37-yard field goal try blocked by Vincent Taylor of Miami in the second quarter.
— The Bills botched a field goal late in the first half — either it was a blown fake or an issue getting the ball down for the kick. Corey Bojorquez stood up after taking the snap and tried a short pass back to kicker Stephen Hauschka under pressure from Brynden Trawick of the Titans.
— Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater missed a 55-yard field goal, badly, sending the football way right. The miss gave Green Bay the ball at its 45 in the third quarter with a chance to cut into its 24-8 deficit. Prater did make a 39-yard kick in the second quarter that helped the Lions lead 24-0 at halftime.
— Atlanta’s Matt Bosher had a punt blocked late in the third quarter when Pittsburgh’s Roosevelt Nix bulldozed in.
