    Justin Tucker is AFC Player of the Week and Month

    Justin Tucker is coming very close to reaching Matt Stover status with the Ravens in my opinion.

    EDIT: DAMN IT! That is AFC Special Teams Player of the Week and Month


    ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!

    He's getting the accolades like Stover, but we need to cool it a bit there...Stover had a LONG career, Tucker will need to play at this level for several years to surpass Stover.

    Doesn't take away from his awesomeness though.

    Tucker is an essential part of this team. I literally can't think of one big/important kick he has missed. (I also just literally knocked on wood.)

    He's quickly becoming a favorite Raven of mine.

    I know he's the kicker and not the punter but the same applies... :D

    I would be willing to bet that Harbaugh regrets not letting Tucker take a shot at that 48yrd field goal in the Pittsburgh game - instead of trying for that unsuccessful 4th down conversion attempt. I bet he won't make that mistake again.

    Nobody needs to cool anything. Tuck is clearly the best young kicker in the game now icing the SB with not one but two pressure kicks as a rookie putting SF out of reach at the end and then winning all these games this year.

    Yup, HARBs would love that game in Piss back. He blew it not using Tuck.

    He's getting what he deserves as the best kicker in the game now. Nobody is comparing him to anyone. Just saying he's the best for now.

    My question is.... when does Tucker break the NFL record for Longest FG?


    We know he can hit them from 65, no problem... we just need the game circumstances to work out.

    (Sfortunamente, as they say in the old country, we cannot expect Young Tuck to belt this one out after a win--it takes a tenor & by most reports JT is a baritone. Even so--bravo! bravissimo!)

    It's getting to the point where, no matter the conditions, you send out Tucker on fourth down. There are many kickers that would have lost confidence after those two missed Field Goals versus Cleveland earlier in the year. Just look at the way he's responded. There were multiple pressure kicks in the playoffs and he made them all.

    Not too sure that record is going to broken honestly.

    ST linemen are taller, thus more disruptive to a low trajectory shot that is needed to break the record. It's going to have to happen in almost ideal circumstances with a little luck of a lineman falling down.
