Brown misses, Bironas hits

nfl

Kris Brown missed a 42-yarder wide left at the end of the Texans’ last game that could have forced overtime. He just missed a 49-yarder wide right that could have given the Texans a lead against the Titans.

This one had plenty of distance, but slid to the right.

Not ideal work from a guy known for his ability to connect from long distance.

Titans kicker Rob Bironas also has a big leg.

After Vince Young keyed a drive with two great third-down runs, Bironas hit from 50 to give the Titans a 17-14 lead.(source)

Vince Young remained undefeated as a starter for the Tennessee Titans this season thanks to Rob Bironas and his knack for making big kicks against the Houston Texans.

Bironas kicked a 53-yard field goal with less than a minute left and the Titans beat the Texans 20-17 Monday night for their fourth straight victory after starting the season with six losses in a row. It was against the Texans two years ago that Bironas set an NFL record with eight field goals, including the game-winner as time expired in a 38-36 win. He also made a 50-yarder Monday.

“I always feel good down here … I like Houston,” he said. “I don’t think Houston likes me too much.” The Texans (5-5) had a chance to tie it, but Kris Brown’s 49-yard attempt with 1 second remaining was wide left. It was his second miss of the game and the second straight game he’s missed a chance to send the Texans to overtime. (more…)
