Question
In the 32-team era, what player has missed 3 field goals under 40 yards in Super Bowl games – 3 times more than all other kickers combined?
Answer
Adam Vinatieri. Vinatieri has made 5 of his 8 field goal attempts inside 40 yards in Super Bowl games. Other kickers since 2002 have gone 42 of 43 from that range. Nonetheless, Vinatieri is the league’s all-time leading scorer and has made game-winning kicks at the end of two Super Bowls. He’ll be inducted into the Hall of Fame on Saturday.
