What in the hell
This kicker isn't making the trip back to Arlington.
Go Gators!

This could be a career-ending game for Maher, but I hope it’s just a blip on the radar. If he has the yips*, he might not be able to recover. I don’t think he has them, but it’s obviously in his head big time and I hope he gets through it asap.
*Before I had the driver yips in golf as a professional golfer, I never understood how Chuck Knoblauch or Steve Sax couldn’t throw the ball to first or a catcher couldn’t throw the ball back to the pitcher. Until you’ve experienced it, the flinching, first hand, it’s hard to comprehend.

Just in case anyone's wondering...Yes, 4 missed extra points in a single game is an NFL record.

So I guess I booted it off the left upright
Was it too short or too long?
Was it the sun in my eyes
I thought my leg's sufficiently strong
Now my job's on the line
So I hope I'll kick it straight this time
Did I miss again?
I think I missed again
Oh-oh-oh

The hilarity of the kicker aside: the cowboys look great.
