Pittsburgh Steelers kicker makes NFL history with victory over Ravens

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell made NFL history with another outstanding six-of-six performance in the team’s 18-16 victory over the Baltimore Ravens. Boswell is the first player in Steelers history to have two games in a season in which he makes six punts.

But otherwise Boswell’s track record is impeccable. He tied John Carney with other kickers to do it sometime in a season. This is something that generally just isn’t done. It was Boswell’s third career game in which he made six of six field goals, now an NFL record. Boswell has won all three games in which he made six field goals.

Boswell continues to set the pace for the NFL record for field goals made in a season. He has made 29 field goals in ten games, the record held by former Philadelphia Eagles kicker David Akers, who once made 44 field goals in a season.

Boswell is 29 out of 30 this season and is the most reliable kicker in football so far. Justin Tucker, on the other hand, missed two field goals in some windy and choppy conditions, but Boswell continues to prove none of that matters to them, setting NFL and franchise records in the process.
