This makes no sense to me. Tucker finishes the regular season 35/39 in FGs.
Meanwhile, Rosas was 32/33 in FGs.
Rosas missed two kicks all year - Tucker missed five.
I know it's just kickers, but HOW THE FUCK does Tucker get the All-Pro nod and Rosas doesn't?

Tucker is a fantastic kicker who didn't have a fantastic year.
I realize that. It's ridiculous.
I guess when Luck when through that consecutive games with out being sacked streak, it looked good for the whole Colts OL.

He did, but he was awesome down the stretch. I think at least 3 rookies made it, which is amazing.
What a rookie class this was...
I get that when it comes to the Pro Bowl, but the AP All-Pro team is usually a pretty good list to be on. Whenever you hear HOF debates/worthiness or looking back at ones career, you often here how many times he wasan All-Pro.
Odd comment. You don’t take the AP All Pro team seriously? It’s a very prestigious honor and I agree Rosas was robbed.

How is Nelson All-Pro 1st team? Didn't he start of real slow?

Colts ended up with 2 All-Pros from their draft class. An incredible performance.
I am a little surprised the voting did not have Saquon as a flex for the 2nd team, but I can't quibble with McCaffrey getting the selection.
Perhaps Tucker made the most FG's?
Tucker's kickoffs average was higher, he had more TB and fewer kicks out of bounds and he scored more points. He is an excellent all around kicker.
Rosas had a great year and I wouldn't argue if the positions were reversed, but it is not outlandish that Tucker is 1st team and Rosas is 2nd team.
Gotcha... I’m a homer and I like to see our guys make it
I think it's great that they snubbed Saquon this year. It its going to even make him more motivated and better. Watch him next year lead the lead in total yards, rushing yards and TDs. It would not surprise me one bit.
Tucker was 10th in FG%, below 90%.
but yes he deserves it
Tucker was 10th in FG%, below 90%.
Minor nitpick, he was 9th. 89.7% is still a high percentage. The second most accurate FG kicker of all time (since Tucker is #1) sits at 87.7% for perspective. 4 of the guys in front of him had fewer than 22 attempts, nearly half of what Tucker kicked.
Touched by the hand of... something. - ( New Window )
