It was a penalty that pushed it back.
But that was the first time he missed.

This was the 60 yard "May as well try to win" kick as time expired that he very nearly made.

I still think Elliot should have been chosen to be the kicker, but I understand that, if you're going to hold a competition between a free agent and a draft pick, you can't rig the competition such that the free agent makes almost every kick you ask him to make and his opponent misses several and you still pick his opponent.

That would be dishonorable in a way Lewis probably never would allow.

Elliot is officially on the practice squad now. I think the Elliot hype starts the second Bullock misses a kick he should have made (I.E. less than 50 yarder).
