Bengals head coach Zac Taylor expressed relief after Thursday’s Chargers-Broncos game, which saw kicker Cameron Dicker hit a 57-yard field goal off a free kick. The rare occurrence has sparked debate among coaches and players about the NFL rule allowing fair-catch field goals. Taylor acknowledged that his sons were confused by the play but had been briefed on it during training camp.
Dicker’s successful attempt cut the Denver lead to 21-13, contributing to the Chargers’ 34-27 win. The Bengals can now focus on their upcoming game against the Browns, with a playoff spot hanging in the balance.
Taylor emphasized that his team’s attention should be solely on beating Cleveland, rather than discussing last night’s game. Meanwhile, Bengals kicker Cade York is set to make history as the first kicker to score a point for both teams in the Battle of Ohio on Sunday.
