The Chiefs need a new kicker.

That 70% success rate at that distance puts him in the bottom-third of the league.

His 1st miss in that range was the first game ever as a rookie.... a 48 yarder.

*His 2nd miss in that range was in the rain... a 44 yarder in week 15.
*His 3rd miss in that range was in the rain... a 47 yarder in week 15.

*They brought in a new long-snapper the next day to scare Gafford.

I want to quote myself here for emphasis.

3 of his 5 misses he has a legitimate free pass on, IMO, and all 3 of those were in the all-important 40-49 yard range.

1st - Rookie jitters on a 48 yarder
2nd, 3rd - The coaches blame the snapper.

He was nails on the other 7.
