That ball seemed like it was still 35 feet in the air as it passed the uprights.

I’d also add that Vinatieri has a career long of 57 yards.
Butker has 3 seasons with a season long that was longer than that. |

And that ladies and gentlemen is why he is the highest paid kicker in the NFL, and worth every penny. 51 was automatic.

I know it's just a regular season game, but imagine being so good at your job that the best QB in the league, and maybe ever, is completely fine just handing the game over to you to win.

It was kind of impressive the level of trust that they showed in him to finish that game. And he ****ing drilled it. Love it.

I hope he gets a chance (not in a game winning situation) to attempt the longest kick record.

I was thinking before the kick, it was no gimme, and the football gods already gave us a gift with the 4th and 16...this might be too much to ask.

Few years ago in Cincy, Butker missed a long kick when they really needed it. McPherson never misses against the Chiefs. Butker has drilled some really clutch kicks against Cincy in the last few matchups.

The guy is just automatic. And everybody I know loves his POV on life and stuff!
Chiefs Kingdom has the GOAT kicker on their team, that fraud Tucker has been dethroned. |

I remember telling my wife in his 2nd or 3rd year here that I didn't worry about it when he's kicking FGs, even long ones. I think it was the game at LA where he kicked a couple of 50+ (one might have been something like 59 yards) FGs in that game. I had seen enough up to that point to realize that the guy is clutch. Sure, like any kicker, he's gonna miss one occasionally. But most of the time, he makes them.

I remember that. We played Washington on MNF and I my BIL told me we signed a new kicker. I was like wtf because, as I recall, we had an okay kicker at the time. Obviously, Butker turned out to be much better. So props to Veach.

Butker kicking the game winner against the Chargers 3 times in a row from 50+ was one of the most badass things I’ve ever seen a kicker do.
