The NFL is in the midst of a kicking problem. Seemingly every week the league’s kickers are breaking records for the most missed field goals in a weekend. Extra points are being missed regularly, game-winning/tying shots are nowhere close, and flat out gimme field goals are being shanked.
It’s baffling to witness the fall of production from a position you would expect to maintain linear stats. But if you’re a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers you probably don't know or even realize this is a problem across the league. That’s because Steelers kicker Chris Boswell has consistently been one of the best kickers in all of football.
