The game never shopuld have been at the mercy of Norwood's leg. Again, poor preparation, coaching and play calling. Bills were out coached and under prepared.
But bottom line is, when called upon to kick a 47yarder, he should have made it. He had more than enough "leg strength". He was not accurate. Was it the pressure, was it a bad hold? He missed it, should have made it (and probably would eight out of ten times). And the rest, as they say, is history. Kinda like the kicker in Ace Ventura :^)

Norwood was successful on fewer than 70% of his FG attempts in 1990, so I don't understand how you could say that he should have had an "eight in ten" chance of kicking a field goal that would have been (if I remember correctly) the longest of his career on grass.
