If at first you don’t succeed, try try again. Just ask Mason Crosby.
The Green Bay Packers kicker missed potential game-winning field-goal attempts at the end of regulation and in overtime, only to kick a game-winning 49-yard field goal in a wild 25-22 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
Instead of Crosby labeled as the kicking scapegoat after his struggles, Cincy’s Evan McPherson—who missed a go-ahead field goal with 26 seconds remaining in regulation and a potential winning field goal himself in overtime—will now hold that distinction.
The Packers moved to 4-1 on the season with the win. The Bengals are 3-2.
