Ranking the Kickers Remaining in the NFL Playoffs
Kickers are often the afterthought -- until the spotlight hits them. Which playoff kicker has been the most reliable in 2016?

3. Mason Crosby, Green Bay Packers

Stat Score Rank
Field Goal NEP 13.26 8
Field Goal NEP/Play 0.44 8
Late-Game NEP/Play 0.46 7


This year, Mason Crosby had a pretty average season by NEP, at least by his standards, but he finished in the top eight among kickers both in cumulative Field Goal NEP and in Field Goal NEP per play.

He ultimately fared well in late-game situations, going 8 of 9 on field goals and 11 of 13 on extra points.

His lone late-game field goal miss was on a 31-yarder against the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football. The Green Bay Packers were ahead 26-10 in the final two minutes, and the kick was blocked by Akiem Hicks, losing him more than three points in NEP.
