Listening to 1057 the Fan, Jason la Canfora basically suggested that tucker is no longer as dependable as he use to me. No doubt that Tucker being in his mid 30s, hes going to miss more FGs because of his body, but I think people are getting too caught up on this. Tuckers only misses from this year before Sunday Night were all from 50+, one of them being from 60 yards. And even tho tucker is the record holder, kicking 60 yarders is still hard considering most Kickers Season Highs dont even pass that.
Now, do i think there is an issue? 100%. I think the problem is the O-line doesnt help when you are allowing the defense to get more leverage considering Tucker likes to Line drive his kicks which is why alot of the misses Tucker has are from blocked kicks. The most tucker has missed in a season is 7 FGs in 2015, but I think he will miss one more at least but its not something i am too worried about.
PS: Congrats to Younghoe Koo to be the being the top spot by .01%, but when he has only 160 FG attempts and tucker has 400+, its not even a fair comparison LOL. come back in 5 more years
Worried? No, is he human? Yes. No kick is 100% guaranteed. I’d still rather have Tucker over any other kicker in the league.
