It was like our kicker was subliminally saying "hey, I just missed a very makeable field goal attempt that would have changed the outcome the game; I let my teammates and the fans down, and it's 100% okay that I didn't do my job." Dude... hang your head down low and walk your ass back to the sidelines. I know that the guy is human, but it would have been nice to see a little ownership. Ferguson screwed up, but did you see him shaking hands with teammates afterward? The guy knew he messed up, and you could tell that he knew he let the team down.
