Скачать или смотреть PAY. THE. KICKER. 💰 — One Position Keeps Deciding NFL Seasons 🏈 — Yet Teams Still Undervalue It 🤦‍♂️

Another NFL season. Another playoff run decided by one kick.

In this clip, I explain why kickers continue to decide seasons, careers, and legacies — and why teams still refuse to treat the position like it matters.

From Tyler Loop’s miss in Ravens–Steelers to Scott Norwood, Gary Anderson, and Adam Vinatieri, history keeps screaming the same lesson: kick the can down the road at kicker, and it comes back to end your season.

Kickers average just 2% of the NFL salary cap, yet they’re responsible for win probability swings bigger than most non-QBs on the field. With the league trending toward 60-yard range reliability, the next evolution is already here — teams just refuse to pay attention.

This isn’t about blaming rookies.
It’s about roster malpractice.
