Pressure intensifies on embattled Bears kicker Connor Barth

Posted Nov 20, 2017
Bears kicker Connor Barth has been under close scrutiny most of the season. The pressure on Barth is now expected to intensify after he pushed a game-tying 46-yard field goal attempt wide right with eight seconds left in regulation on Sunday. “That’s just the way it is. I signed up for this. You’re going to make some; you’re going to miss some -- that’s the way it is.” (ESPN.com)
