Shocking Miss From Bills Kicker Raises Eyebrows in Thanksgiving Day Matchup.ANHTRUC.

 

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass is typically a reliable performer, but he’s been having a tough time on extra points lately, and Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions added another challenge to his season. Bass lined up for what should have been a routine 24-yard field goal—practically automatic in NFL terms—but his kick veered wide left, marking the shortest miss of the NFL season so far. No other kicker has missed a field goal from less than 25 yards this year, making this miss particularly surprising.

It’s worth noting that Bass is used to kicking at Highmark Stadium, which often features challenging, blustery conditions. However, this game against the Lions was played in the climate-controlled comfort of Ford Field, a domed stadium, leaving weather out of the equation.

The Bills, leading 21-14 with just under two minutes left in the second quarter, were positioned well to score. They faced a third-and-goal from just one yard out but a false start penalty pushed them back to the 6-yard line, setting up Bass for the attempted field goal.

CBS play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz captured the shock and disbelief of many watching the game with his call: “That kick is no good! Oh, my goodness.”

It’s a sentiment that echoed through households of Bills fans and football enthusiasts alike. To put this in context, extra point attempts in the NFL are kicked from the 15-yard line, a total distance of 33 yards.

Bass’ miss from nine yards closer than that will surely be a moment he’d like to forget.
