What a kick. The Lions are another story, but that can be for another time. Justin Tucker of the Ravens is the man responsible for taking the win against the Lions yesterday. Though people are arguing that it should have been pushed back due to a delay of game call that was never called. And you could argue the Lions got screwed over yet again haha! But seriously, this kick was masterful. If they did get the delay of game, it would have made it a 71 yard field goal and probably would have ended with the Lions winning. But Justin Tucker clocked a 66 yard field goal for the win. And that is now the record. You can see the kick below.

I do not follow football therefore it is difficult for me to gauge how outstanding this is from an NFL context. BUT as a human being, kicking a ball 66 yards is extraordinary and then to do so within two uprights is cream of the crop. I couldn’t imagine the disappointment in the Lion’s minds as that ball went in between the uprights. Went from:

Haha yup. But imagine if that delay of game was called and they got pushed back another 5 yards. I could see the Lions taking the win after that, but the Ravens would just have had to find a way to score a touchdown instead.

But yeah, the Lions had that win, but that kick destroyed em.
