Packers exploring numerous options at kicker this offseason
For a team with Super Bowl aspirations, the Green Bay Packers know that they have to get the kicker position right this season, and they’ve been turning over every rock in an effort to do so.
As we’ve seen over and over again throughout the NFL, the margin between winning and losing is very small. Since the year 2000, there have been 6,176 regular season games played and over 36 percent of those contests have been determined by three points or fewer. The most common margin of victory during that same span is three points, happening 929 times.
A missed field goal or a missed extra point can often be the difference between a win and a loss.
