Butker and Tucker both play on super bowl contending teams while Gano is with the Giants who are so offensively limited they can barely compete in the East.

Do you think there is a difference in the pressure of kicks between those teams?

Absolutely, you are 100% spot on.

Chiefs kicker has ZERO pressure because everyone knows Mahommes can come out and score massive points in no time just like he did against the Browns where he stacked up 2 touchdowns in 3 minutes of clock time last week...

...Giants NEED every point because they suck -- Gano faces MAX pressure...

...Buttkisser faces NO pressure 😆

But they're not. It's only about kicks that can tie or create a lead. Regardless of the actual points scored, those kicks are basically equal. 

3-pt kicks count more.

I get a kick out of the dolts who sweat the occasionally missed extra point...

...me personally, would rather see them miss the 1-pointers!

It doesn't matter when the data set is only considering kicks that are to tie or for the lead. For all intents and purposes, those kicks are essentially equal. You're trying or winning if they're made, you're losing if they're not.

69-for-70 from inside 50yds in last 48-games...

...is that good enough for you?

Yeah, all but one season his team sucked. Par for the course. I'm not saying he's a bad overall kicker. He's a GREAT kicker on kicks that aren't clutch. He's one of the worst of the past three decades on kicks that are clutch. The data bears it out.

      Ticket Prices

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
