Justin Tucker Nails Sixth Kick--a 61-Yard FG to Beat Lions; Hopes Fantasy Owners are Happy

The Eyes of Texas were upon Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker remembering how well he kicked when he was playing for the Longhorns, and after Monday night's game against the Detroit Lions the rest of the nation should be well aware of how good this kid is.

On a night when the Ravens could move the ball, but couldn't get it into the end zone Tucker showed why he was a fan favorite in college by kicking six field goals including the game winner, a 61-yard boot with 38 ticks left on the clock.

Not only was it his sixth of the night and the game winner, but it was his 33rd in a row--something that fantasy football owners covet when it comes to their kickers. With many if not most fantasy football leagues well into their playoffs at this point anyone that has Tucker on their team got a boost from a position where not much is expected.

Tucker is aware of this and during his comments after the game he hoped his fantasy owners were happy:

"My fantasy team is benefiting from [me] as well. Fantasy owners around the world, I hope you guys appreciate the points."

Awesome. Simply awesome.
