Crosby and and Masthay showed up for the Pack today, so how about a little love for our kicker & punter.
Crosby nailed his field goal, smacked KOs deep in the endzone, and had a pretty dang good tackle on one return. In fact, I'd say Crosby is probably the best tackling kickers in the game, though to be sure he's had plenty of opportunity to hone this skill during the Slocum era.
Masthay didn't get called on until late, but dude was money. Rainy day, pinned deep on his first punt, pretty good pressure from SD, and the guy just crushes it. Same with the second. He ends up averaging over 50 yards per punt. Those two punts were absolutely critical in securing the win. He mis-hits or shanks one (or lets the wet ball fly through his hands), and this game ends differently.
So lift a glass to Crosby and Masthay!
