Bears fans can’t believe Cairo Santos’ field goal was blocked again

For the second time in as many weeks, kicker Cairo Santos had a 48-plus-yard field goal attempt blocked – and it was almost identical to the previous week after Santos’ game-winning 46-yard attempt was blocked by the Packers. .

Santos has made three missed field goals this season, all from 40 to 49 yards. The Bears have blocked three field goals this season, the most in the NFL and the most in a single season since 2012 (3), according to ESPN Stats and Information.

As you can imagine, there was a lot of disbelief and shock that the Bears didn’t make any necessary adjustments after last week’s heartbreaking event when Santos’s 46-yard field goal attempt that would have won the game was blocked. While this incident did not have the same impact, it remains a problem moving forward as Santos’ last two field goal attempts from inside the 40 were blocked.
