Cincinnati Bengals Head Coach Zac Taylor Expresses Confidence in Evan McPherson After Two Crucial Misses vs Los Angeles Chargers
Bengals kicker Evan McPherson missed two field goals in the fourth quarter of their 34-27 loss to the Chargers on Sunday night.
After making kicks from 26 and 27 yards in the first half, McPherson missed a 48-yard attempt with 7:31 to go that would've given Cincinnati a 30-27 lead. The veteran kicker got another shot, but he missed again later in the quarter. This time, his 51-yard attempt was wide left and the game remained tied at 27 with 1:48 remaining."Obviously two opportunities Evan would like to have back. Fundamentally, those two can go through it," Taylor said. "I have confidence in Evan.
McPherson has made just 50% of his kicks from 40+ yards this season. He's missed his last four kicks from 50+ yards.James Rapien is the publisher of Bengals On SI.
