Justin Tucker

He hasn't mastered how he wants to handle situations like that.

There were difficult – Uh, conversations like the Alvin all off season long, Justin Tucker coming in for a workout last year.

Like, um, he has not, he has not, it's, it's one of those things where we're, we, we put them under the microscope.

Now that's an area he hasn't, he hasn't mastered what he wants to do as a, as a public facing head coach.

He just has to become more consistent.

You guys mentioned, I mean, the Ravens have had two of the best kickers ever, you know, Justin Tucker and Matt Stover.

I think when I was covering the team, I had Matt Stover next to me for a game.

I can't remember which game it was, but we spoke about how he had more, it was Ray Lewis and there was Matt Stover jerseys throughout, you know, the fan base.

And that just spoke to how much, confidence the ravens and the fan base had in him to make those kicks so those are big shoes to fill obviously he's uh taking over for the most accurate kicker in nfl history and justin tucker so we'll see what happens but that kick could have made the difference in between overtime and going home four and two unfortunately uh the ravens have to go home four and two but this three game stretch could get back to where they need to be.

I'm sure the fan base would appreciate that very much.

That is going to do it for us here at the lockdown Raven squad show.

There's one guy who's probably washed up, but is head and shoulders above everyone else, but he's so taboo, you can't touch him.

But would they? Would they do it? Justin Tucker, late of the Ravens, decorated kicker in Baltimore, and his career ended [smacks lips] because of some massages, which apparently went sideways, [sniffs] and, uh, it didn't get as much publicity as Deshaun Watson, but there was a lot of massage activity there.

Tucker the Tugger.

Uh, yeah, Tucker, uh, had quite the, uh, nicknames there.

We'll just try to kick a field goal in overtime." And of course they m- m- they kick...

They said it was blocked, but he would've missed it anyway and all that stuff.

So does McVay own a hazmat suit to go out and bring in Justin Tucker? And would, would he do that? Would he venture down radioactive highway? Uh, Tucker, by the way, lives in a nice one-bedroom apartment in Chernobyl, uh, at this particular point in the eyes of the NFL.

All right, now as for the big picture, the Rams, who should be three and two but are not three and two, thanks to the NFL, they are instead two and three.

I mean, kickers swinging games and seasons is nothing new this millennium.

Harbaugh's Ravens run to playoff relevance hinged to an outsized degree on Justin Tucker.

And while I don't know whatever happened to that particular class act, the kickers of this era are just playing better than their forefathers.

They're not just regularly making them from greater distances, they're more accurate than they've ever been before.
