Cheese Curds, 1/16: Crosby sets an NFL record, Rodgers praised for making plays on the run

The Green Bay Packers have one of the most clutch kickers in postseason history, and he showed up again on Sunday when they needed him most.

Mason Crosby's regular season field goal percentage is just a shade over 80%, but when the calendar clicks over to January, he finds a different groove. Crosby has hit 26 of 28 postseason field goal attempts - a 92.8% hit rate - and has not missed since the 2010 season. In fact, Crosby's only two misses in the playoffs both came from 50 yards or longer.

On Sunday, distance didn't matter for Crosby, as inside of two minutes to go he hit three field goals from 50-plus (including the one that was canceled out by a timeout), something that has never been done before.
