Wow.



One of the strongest legs in NFL history and he didn't make it to the end zone. He's probably 15 yards short on that one - hard to believe he got as much of it as he's capable of. Kicking into the wind probably didn't help much.

What dumb ass STs coach said "yeah, he can hit that?" Like, we know every game what Butker's capable of going either direction because he and Toub go out there, kick the hell out of a few balls and see what they do.

There's no WAY Janikowksi was nailing 'em from 76 heading that direction in warm-ups. What a stupid waste of time and I wish it would've been returned just to make the Raiders look like the unprepared assholes they are.

If something were picked up, it would've been in his right hand. He runs over and jumps on Butker, and then you see his right hand hanging at his side, open. Doesn't appear to have anything in his grasp. So sounds like the rookie needs to buy us a new micro-tee.

Sure looks like the guy has something in his hand here:



yeah, it's his left hand, but watch the video - he scoops it with his right and then puts his hand together in front of his body as he's running to Butker. I'm pretty positive that's the 'transfer' that gets it to his left hand.

That's just a couple of 'unnatural' acts. Why would he reach/scoop with his right after using his left to boost himself up? And why is he clearly pinching something between his fingers with his left shortly thereafter? Sure seems to point to the conclusion that he picked something up and was holding it.

But where I keep coming to is that it's probably legal. I mean...surely they aren't that blatant. Or it's some kind of 'unwritten rule' thing where nobody cares.

Look at his left hand IMMEDIATELY after the ball is kicked. He's pinching his fingers together before he ever touches the field with his right hand. It's a gesture, it's something in his ritual. There's nothing in his left hand.

It's probably a booger. Check the video, see if he's rolling it between his fingers before flicking it off.

What if he is a big time booger guy and he picked a monster and laid it on the turf. Butker hits the kick and he decides that’s his lucky booger now, can’t let it go.

Butker's back is to that ball for 3 seconds before it clears the uprights.

That dude was locked in like nothing you'll ever see. I wonder if he'd have hit from 65. If he needed 68 I think he had it. I mean lord, he was FEELING it.

Im not sure I’ve ever been that confident of anything in my whole life.

Much less a record tying field goal. Jesus.

LOL. I don’t even know what to say to that. At 70 does he have to take into account the Coriolis effect? I’d hate to lose a game because the kicker doesn’t know the earth is moving.

"When asked about his near-miss 78 yard game-winner that bounced off the left upright, Butker responded 'yeah, I forgot to check the position of the moon - ****ing tidal pull will get you every time...'"

I mean that's just the swingingest dick move I've ever seen from a kicker. Just hilarious.

He didn't actually kick the ball far at all. He just kicked it high and the uprights circled around to accept it.

I watched the video and it definitely looks like he picks something up. I don't play golf but maybe he is marking it like you would do when you putt.

If he's putting down a ball marker, it is 1) bright yellow and 2) the size of a dime or smaller.

You'd be able to see anything else.

[tk13]

My guess was some kind of ball marker too. If he is doing something illegal I find it really hard to believe another NFL team wouldn't have picked up on it. Particularly considering we play the Patriots every year. No way Belichick's staff would miss something like that.
