Saints' Wil Lutz: Another kick blocked
Lutz made one field goal -- a 40-yarder -- and three extra-point attempts in Sunday's 30-10 win against the Buccaneers. He also missed a 43-yard field goal wide right and had an extra point blocked.
While the Saints' offense rolled to a blowout victory, it was an afternoon to forget for the team's second-year kicker. Lutz had some problems with kicks getting blocked last year, and while those issues were seemingly corrected, he has now had an extra-point try swatted down in two of the last three weeks. Still, the Saints kicker is knocking down field goals at an 80-percent clip (he's 16-of-20 on the year) and has the leg to convert easily from 50-plus yards. With the team's offense clicking, Lutz should remain a quality fantasy option in most leagues so long as he stays in the good graces of the coaching staff.
