If he misses 1 the Packers may tie.  Jaguars kicker missed one Sunday that cost them big time. The kicker of both the Eagles and Niners missed a PAT due to the cross wind.What is different about place kickers is that their job is cut and dry. Unlike other positions they are hardly impacted by the performance of the opponent. They control their own destiny except in rare circumstances of protection breakdown, weather, or a bad snap. If they make their kicks they can be the hero for just being on the field for a few plays. At the same time they can be the goat. That is just how it is.In SB V kicker Jim O'Brien kicked the winning FG for the Colts in a defensive battle with the Cowboys. He is not in the HOF. The kick was not hard. BUT..History will always regard him as the hero of SB V.</blockquote>
