Is Will Reichard the best kicker in football? 

Well, it’s worth thinking about, Associated Press All-Pro voters (including this writer), after the quiet kid did what few have ever done — outkick the Cowboys’ Brandon Aubrey. 

Aubrey went into the game having made 33 of 38 career field-goal tries from 50-plus. He was 9-for-11 on the season, and those were his only two misses from any distance. He then missed a 51-yarder with the score tied at 14 and a 59-yarder with the Vikings leading 24-23 early in the fourth quarter. 

On the season, Aubrey has made 88.6% of his field-goal attempts. 

Reichard, who went 2-for-2 with a long of 53 on Sunday, is 24-for-26 for 92.3% this season. 

He’s 9-for-11 from 50-plus. Jacksonville’s Cam Little hit a record 68-yarder this season, but he is making 85.2% of his field-goal attempts and has four misses. 

He also has a missed PAT. Reichard is 65-for-65 in career PATs.

and one miss was the camera wire in London.

Actually, his only 2 misses were TV camera cable deflections…!

It was a little annoying listening to the announcer sloberfest over Aubrey's accuracy and distance repeatedly throughout the game..even after he missed his first one. Will is every bit as good as Aubrey.

The league would like you to report to your nearest re-education center as soon as possible and would like you to delete the post you made spreading misinformation.

I must have missed the second one.

I was at the game and the Cowboys fan behind me said "Here comes Mr. Automatic" when Aubrey trotted out for the 51-yarder he missed. I asked him if he had something against Aubrey to put a curse on him like that!

He's only had two misses.  The second one (Charger game) was also questioned though the league claimed the second one was behind where the ball was kicked.

My neighbors wifed asked out loud if Anderson had missed any field goals yet?

That was 1998 of course.

Will Reichert is a hired mercenary - a cold blooded killer.
