Not sure I would say he is better than Tucker. I think they’re clearly the best two kickers in the league and probably about equal. Butker has certainly had chances at more important field goals, but that’s not something you can blame on Tucker and both have always been reliable and clutch. Tucker probably has the stronger leg also, but I’m not sure.

At his apex, Tucker's leg was stronger, IMO. Now I'd say it's probably Butker.

But Butker has 60 yard makes the last two seasons. I think he has a 65 yarder in him. If Tucker's leg was stronger than Butker's, it wasn't by much. And honestly, there's just little replacing leverage.

Harrison is a BIG kicker. Simply being tall is going to give him more leverage in his legs and more leg drive. I think that should help him age extremely well.

If that guy wanted to sign a Patrick Mahomes "Chief for Life" extension, I'd be in favor of it. He's massively important to this team and has the sort of 'no ****s given' attitude that you absolutely need to have from a kicker. He's ice cold out there.
