A 95-year-old woman stole the show and made for a popular video.Irma Shafer got up and danced away Youth Tavon Young Jersey , making Kirkpatrick smile as he danced along. The moment was captured by a local television crew and shared on social media. Many fans shared it a few hours later as the Bengals played their way to their first 2-0 start since 2015. Kirkpatrick was surprised it got so much reaction."I didn't even know how big it was going to get," Kirkpatrick said. "When they sent it out 鈥?however it got out 鈥?my phone just started going crazy."Kirkpatrick's girlfriend is a close friend of one of the nursing home administrators, and they came up with the idea for the party. Kirkpatrick stopped in after the team's morning meeting and was inspired by Shafer's reaction."She was dancing the whole time I was in there," Kirkpatrick said. "Just to see the energy she had 鈥?that was such an amazing thing. I want to be that one day. I want to still be able to move and enjoy music the way she did."REPLACING THE ONSIDE KICKFootball safety surveys have shown the onside kick to be one of the most dangerous plays. But it also can provide a last-ditch chance for a team to make a comeback, and the trickery of it is one of the more intriguing elements.The Alliance of American Football, which kicks off its spring league the week after the Super Bowl in February, has an interesting replacement for the onside kick."We've replaced the onside kick with an onside conversion attempt," says Pro Football Hall of Famer Bill Polian, co-founder of the eight-team Alliance. "When teams are behind by 17 points or more or within five minutes remaining in the second half, after a touchdown or field goal, the trailing team can opt to receive the ball on their 28-yard line. They can attempt to convert a fourth-and-12. If they are successful and gain a first down, they keep the ball and can continue on. If they fail, the other team takes possession of the ball where it is spotted following the failed conversion attempt."The league also has only a 2-point conversion attempt after touchdowns and will eliminate the PAT kick."That way, we eliminate block attempts that are not the safest plays in football," Polian explains.WHAT'S IN A NAME?Denver Broncos tight end Jake Butt's family learned long ago to have fun with their last name.His father, Rob, wore a Broncos jersey with the name "Head Butt" stitched across the back in Denver when his son made his NFL debut with two catches for 29 yards in the Broncos' win over Seattle.Jake Butt, who sat out his rookie season after tearing up his right knee in his final game for Michigan, remembers asking his dad if he could change his name when he was younger."Shoot, I remember in kindergarten I would get terrorized, and that's like when you take everything personally http://www.ravenscheapstores.com/alex-collins-jersey-cheap ," Butt says. "I hated the first-day-of-class roll call, because they'd always call out 'Butt.' I'd just get beet red and I'd come home to my dad and tell him that I wanted to change my last name."He'd laugh and tell me, 'You're going to have fun with this someday.' So, here we are. We're having a lot of fun with it."Jake Butt didn't have to wait for adulthood for the teasing to stop."I was getting bigger than everybody, so I could just laugh at them, probably like seventh, eighth grade," he said.He now stands 6-foot-6 and weighs 250 pounds, but would get heckled for his last name on the road in the Big Ten, too."Yeah, some Iowa fans got creative, like, 'Haha. Your last name's Butt.' I'm like, 'Man, that's not that creative. You've got to do better than that," Butt said. "Yeah, even away fans, they kind of have fun with it."LEWIS ON LUKEBengals coach Marvin Lewis discovered at an early age that Luke Kuechly was a phenomenal athlete while watching him play summer lacrosse with his son, Marcus, growing up in Ohio.And he has followed Kuechly's football career closely over the years at Boston College and now with the Carolina Panthers.Lewis said before the 2012 NFL draft, he told Bengals owner Mike Brown that Kuechly was "the best collegiate linebacker I think I've ever seen." However Cheap Ronnie Stanley Jersey , Kuechly never returned to his native Ohio because the Panthers took him 11th overall. The Bengals had the No. 17 pick."We're trying to clone guys like Luke Kuechly here," said Lewis, whose Bengals visit Kuechly and the Panthers on Sunday.Kuechly played three years of lacrosse in high school, along with playing on travel teams. He said he didn't score many goals because 鈥?naturally 鈥?he played defense."I would get bored during the offseason if I wasn't doing something," said Kuechly, a four-time All-Pro. "I grew up playing basketball, football and lacrosse."BAYOU DIETLouisiana native and Dolphins defensive tackle Davon Godchaux hosts his teammates on the defensive line for an evening of Cajun cuisine on occasion, serving them crawfish and barbecue.He spares them one of his other favorite foods 鈥?raccoon."Tastes just like chicken," Godchaux said. "They'd probably be grossed out by that. But I'm from the Bayou. So that's what we eat."Godchaux, who's 6-foot-3 and 315 pounds, says his diet is healthy as well as tasty. His foundation, Chauxdown, supports the battle against obesity."Growing up as a child, you always want to eat right to get to this level," Godchaux said.AP Pro Football Writers Barry Wilner and Arnie Stapleton and Sports Writers Steven Wine, Joe Kay and Steve Reed contributed.The NFL kicking crown: Comparing Justin Tucker, Dan Bailey, Adam Vinatieri and Chris Boswell This week, the Pittsburgh Steelers inked kicker Chris Boswell to a four-year extension.After reading the Reddit comments discussing the news, one user mentioned Boswell is only five attempts from the 100 minimum attempts required to be recognized on the all-time completion percentage rankings. If he completes all five, he’ll surpass Dan Bailey as the second-most accurate kicker in NFL history. If Boswell completes eight-straight kicks Youth Michael Crabtree Jersey , he overtakes Justin Tucker as the most accurate kicker.NFL Field Goal Percent Career LeadersBecause kicking means so much to us all, I spent the past two days compiling stats regarding Tucker, Bailey, Boswell and Adam Vinatieri to compare some of the league’s most elite kickers. I couldn’t account for everything though, like how Bailey kicks in a dome at home and Vinatieri enjoyed the roof over Lucas Oil Stadium while both Tucker and Boswell kick in the elements at home games ...just saying.Now, for all stats and tables below, I’ve included the career numbers from all players. These sample sizes are different, but that’s how we must measure them when comparing all-time greatness. I placed Vinatieri at the top as a benchmark for greatness and having an established career. Below him are the younger players who are competing for the crown.Career Average StatsPlayerAvg. Attempt DistanceAvg. Comp. DistanceAvg. Miss DistanceAvg. Miss W/O BlocksPlayerAvg. Attempt DistanceAvg. Comp. DistanceAvg. Miss DistanceAvg. Miss W/O BlocksFirst, the graph shows kicking has changed in the NFL. Yes, these kickers may regress during their careers and the numbers may fall a bit, but all three kickers’ stats are higher than Vinatieri’s in every category. I don’t think it’s regression so much as NFL kicking skill, strength and coaching has evolved into a higher floor and a higher ceiling.From the table you can see Tucker is better than any of the other three players. He’s averaging just more than one yard-per-attempt more than Bailey and nearly two yards more than Boswell. He’s also three yards greater than Vinatieri.His average completion percentage is similar, being one yard greater than Bailey and nearly two-yards greater than Boswell, just as the attempts scored. Once more, Tucker averages more than three-yards greater than Vinatieri.As for his average missing distance, Tucker’s range is longer. His missing distance is greater than 50 yards, while Bailey’s is three-yards closer. Both Boswell and Vinatieri place under 45-yards, though Boswell’s distance is greater.Take out all blocked kicks and once more Tucker leads. When he misses a kick it’s due to ridiculous distance attempts. His average miss attempt is more than 50-yards while Bailey’s stands around 47-yards and Boswell sits at 45-yards. Vinatieri is a strange case as when you eliminate the blocks, his range is virtually the same.Attempt BreakdownsPlayerAtt. <= 29Att. 30-39Att. 40-49Att. 50+PlayerAtt. <= 29Att. 30-39Att. 40-49Att. 50+Kyle P BarberAnother demonstration on the ever-changing skill-cap of kicking, more than 90 percent of Vinatieri’s attempts come from inside the 49-yard line. Meanwhile, both Tucker (79 percent) and Bailey (81 percent) attempt 10 percent more kicks from the greatest distances.The Steelers Youth Tony Jefferson Jersey , it looks like, know Boswell’s range; his 50+ yard attempts are lower than Vinatieri’s as only 8.421 percent of his kicks come from that distance.This also shows Boswell’s incredible accuracy is due to far lower kicking distances than either Bailey or Tucker.Completion BreakdownsPlayerComp <= 29Comp. 30-39Comp. 40-49Comp. 50+PlayerComp <= 29Comp. 30-39Comp. 40-49Comp. 50+Here we see Bailey’s struggles of recent. If Vinatieri is the benchmark, Bailey sits 1 percent behind on kicks shorter than 30-yards. Both Tucker and Boswell are perfect.Move the kicks between the 30- and 39-yard line and you see where Tucker and Bailey stand above the rest. Tucker leads, per usual, but Bailey is within 2 percent. Boswell is still above 90 percent, which is great, especially when measuring the kicks against Vinatieri’s where he’s not even above 85 percent.Between 40- to 49-yards is where Tucker stands alone. His accuracy lands 13 percent higher than Vinatieri’s and he’s the only kicker ranking above 90 percent. Bailey isn’t far behind and all three younger kickers do stand above 85 percent.Once it comes to kicks of 50-yards or more, things become skewed. Boswell leads all kickers in this category, but it is largely due to his sample size, completing six of eight attempts. Regardless, that’s still a great feat. Tucker places second, 6 percent higher than the ‘Vinatieri baseline.’ Bailey places third, still above 67 percent.AnalysisAll four kickers are incredible. Though this may read like I’m knocking down those not named Tucker, this sheds light on the incredible performances in comparison to these great kickers. When you see other teams spending second-round picks on place-kickers, that becomes especially clear. To be this accurate is no easy feat. Boswell earned his money.Vinatieri is an all-time great. He has been kicking for more than two decades now; it’s bewildering. Finally, Tucker is a machine. He leads these kickers in nearly all stats. Only the small sample size of Boswell on the 50+ completion category takes first place from Tucker. This means Tucker is not only the most accurate kicker in NFL history, he’s doing this from further distances than anybody else. This is why Ravens fans, including myself, are so defensive when people talk about how great other kickers are. Those kickers are great, but they aren’t Justin Tucker.
