Justin Tucker Explains Another Missed Kick At Home
Justin Tucker booted the game-winning 52-yard field goal in overtime in Pittsburgh, a place historically known to be brutal on NFL kickers due to swirling winds off the three rivers and shoddy turf.
But when it came time for a 51-yard field goal near the end of the first half Sunday, the home confines of M&T Bank Stadium proved perhaps trickier.
Tucker missed the kick and the Browns, given a short field, went down the other way to tack on a field goal before the end of the half. Baltimore could have led 17-6 at halftime, but instead settled for a 14-9 advantage. In a game that was tied at 30 by the end of regulation, it turned out to be a big swing.
