When you think about it, it should've worked. They kicked it to the 20 (or maybe that was a TB, I forget). It took 13
PLAYS for the Chiefs to move that ball 40 yards.
13.
And how many kickers can even kick a ball 53 yards and consistently split the uprights? How many under the pressure of having to win the game? Then how many from 58 yards? Twice?
Probably you can count them on half a hand.
Heck, if you just changed one thing, Butker probably misses at least one of those. Maybe the one that actually counted. Percentage-wise it was probably just as good a call as going for it.
