That missed FG at the end last year cost the Ravens a trip to the Superbowl. Do you think anyone might remember that?

Somebody else will pick him up, though.

Yes they will. He will kick in the NFL for a long time. If you put it on your kicker to win the game for you, then you really have little complaint. Ya did not do enough.

And... if you didn't do enough and you need to put the game on the kicker's shoulders, you might want someone other than a retread.

Missing that kick will haunt him his whole career...

There is that part too. But a certain receiver has a little cross to bear in that loss also.

It's either Hit or Miss, Poor Guy! Lombardi will tell our offense had many shots at getting the ball in the end zone, our kicker had 1!

And he "kicked" himself there.

Beg to differ. That wasn't Cundiff's fault. At best what Cundiff could have done is extend the game. I entirely blame Evans. That was a perfectly thrown pass by Flacco to Evans.

We will soon find out a lot about Coach Harbaugh!

Spot on. Evans cost his team a Lombardi trophy. Flacco put it in his chest.

half true. He cost them the AFC Championship. The Giants were on a roll and there is nothing show the Ravens would have won a Superbowl. flacco is good, but when under the kind of pressure the Giants were bringing he would have fared no better than Brady.

Probably. Most kickers understand that you don't make 100% of your kicks--some go awry. They just hope a bad one doesn't happen at the end of a big game.

Man, NFL must be slow on news stories.

If you miss a kick that wins the game you need, you got one foot in the grave.

Easy to say that the team had several chances to win without having it come down to a kicker. But that's what kickers are for. And like it or not, the reality is that it's all on the kicker when it comes down to that game-tying/game-winning FG. Just ask Scott Norwood.

Your missing the point, after he missed the kick, the Ravens offense once again had the ball, the receiver dropped the ball, at best his missed field goal would have tied the game up! With Scott Norwood, time ran out and his team never got the ball back, that's a huge difference!

Wrong order. The dropped pass came before the missed kick.

And, is any one really surprised the Ravens brought in competition for PK in camp?

and you wish you have Flacco instead of your unproven RGIII.
