Call it voodoo, call it a hex, call it what you will, but kickers are having a rough time against the Detroit Lions this season.

Earlier this season, Green Bay kicker (and the franchise's leading scorer) Mason Crosby missed four field goals and an extra point in a loss to the Lions.

Last week, Bears' kicker Cody Parkey hit the uprights four times, but the Bears still got the win.
