Facing a daunting 62-yard field goal attempt that even tests the limits of a kicker as great as Chris Boswell, Mike Tomlin had full confidence in Boswell’s ability to hit from Steph Curry range at the end of the first half of Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Ultimately, Boswell’s kick had the distance but not quite the accuracy, veering slightly right, but Tomlin has no regrets about the decision. Nor was he concerned about leaving time on the clock for the Chargers to get off one last play before the break.
“I didn’t care. I sent him out there ’cause I thought he was gonna make it, to be quite honest with you,” Tomlin said when asked via the team’s YouTube channel if time was a concern.
