Packers rookie Anders Carlson passes first December test with perfect night vs Chiefs

Being the kicker for the Green Bay Packers inevitably means having to kick a rock-hard football in cold weather outdoor games. For years and years, the franchise’s best and most reliable kickers — Chris Jacke, Ryan Longwell and Mason Crosby, for example — got the job done in the winter conditions at Lambeau Field.

In his first December test in Green Bay, rookie Anders Carlson was perfect on Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Great night for Carlson. Surprised that 48 yarder isnt being talked about more with how clutch it was.

I did not have any faith in that 48 yarder. I was hoping for a defensive flag or something to keep the Packers offense on the field.

When I looked at the flags on the goal post, they were not moving. I assumed he would make it from that distance. IF everyone did their job. It's not just Carlson that has issues.

It's similar because I don't think anyone really felt the Packers were playoff threats. And here we are .500 12 games into the season with winnable games. Fortunately, Green Bay is much more prepared to handle a shocking playoff birth. And a playoff victory.

After that opening drive. I kept thinking crazy thoughts. I was excited, but tempered. Kind of like a kettle that's about to blow it's lid, but just doesn't.

I'm not explaining this well. It was a cool feeling. I'll just say that. When that FG went through, I thought, holy crap, this might at worst go to OT.

Spot on. with point 1.

I think point 2 you haven’t encapsulated many of the thoughts we are all thinking. It is one of the best times to be a fan. When you have muted expectations but see great possibilities.
when we get Alexander, Jones, and others back, how good can you really be?!
Then you realize as somebody pointed out that the Bears a lot better than they were Vikings are not bad. and in the NFL on any given Sunday…

Go Packers!!!!
