Catcherman,

I should have explained more broadly. Often times I hear people say that the kicker lost the game because of a missed field goal in the final seconds. More appropriately it's a shared loss with the rest of the offensive team that couldn't put the ball in the end zone either. Hanging the loss on the kicker is a cheap shot when there's plenty of guilty teammates to share the blame for losing the game.

Thanks Hank. Got anything useful?
