The % of successful field goal attempts over 50 yards so far this year is remarkable. Tonight’s game, Chicago vs. Houston only added to that.

It will be interesting to see if this holds up. I suppose bad weather at “open” stadiums later in the year will drag down the ratio of successful attempts a bit, but, for now, I’m impressed.

As for the critical interference call, we have a lot of deluded people on here: Any ref with a good view of the play would have made that call.

Justin Tucker is having trouble at 50+ however.

I thought the pass interference call was totally wrong.

The pass was too high, and the Cincinnati defender clearly had an opportunity to intercept it.

Incidental contact when a receiver and a defender both have a play on the ball is not a penalty, as far as I know.

I do not think the receiver ever had enough elevation to catch the ball.
