I haven't seen much about our emergency kicker, in the after-math of the Rams disappointing loss to the Falcons. Sam Ficken made every kick he was asked to make, after his initial missed field goal and extra point against the Titans, week 16.

Although there was nothing much beyond 35 yards, his kicks were clutch, and though many waited for the big miss, Sam Ficken's kicks were true.

I am as anxious to get Greg Zuerlein back as anyone on this board, but a well deserved hat's off to Sam Ficken.

He definitely tightened it up after those first two misses at Tennessee. He deserves a camp invite at the very least from some team looking for a kicker this offseason. But he also didn't get much of a chance to really prove himself so not sure it'll be enough. It would have been interesting if Higbee actually caught a damn pass in the endzone because Ficken would have had to try an onside kick... that would have been interesting.

Not sure I could honestly use the word "clutch" however

Any kick is clutch under the pressure of playoffs. I would love to have seen a long kick, or the onside, as well, but he made the kicks he was asked to make. I'll call it clutch.

He did fine. Gets himself a look next year. He now has playoff experience.
