There was plenty of time and opportunity to get the ball at least 10 yards closer. McClappy and Daboll would be getting killed here, if Hauschka had missed that kick. The passing offense was a joke. I think at some point in the early 4th quarter it totaled 50 yards. Expand I actually believe that a 45 yard kick for Hauschka is the same as a 35 yarder. Just as easy and would miss just as many, which is very few. The kickers these days are so good 45 is routine. 50+ is trickier but he is deadly. Kickers miss as many or more extra points at 33 than they do 43 yarders. At one point last year I saw that the top ten kickers had missed way more extra points, like ten total, than FGs of under 45 yards. Something like that.

Expand It's all speculation on my part, but I'd have bet a lot that they would have been criticized for not trying to get closer, if Hauschka had missed that kick by a foot or two.

Expand YOU GOTTA HAVE A GOOD KICKER IF YOU WANNA WIN. Look at what Bill Bellyache has had during his run. Same can be said for Tom Landry and other great HCs.
