Graham Gano K | NYG
Graham Cano misses first field goal, but nails big one in win
Panthers placekicker Graham Gano was certainly challenged in his limited opportunities Sunday in San Francisco. He hooked a 48-yard field goal attempt wide left, but came through with a 53-yarder early in the fourth quarter that keyed a taut 10-9 victory.
His miss was his first attempt this season from 40 to 49 yards and his first unsuccessful boot of the year.

Matt Bryant again doesn't get to do much
For a second straight game, Falcons kicker Matt Bryant was limited to only four points Week 10 against the Seahawks, kicking a field goal and an extra point. He made the field goal count, though, connecting on a season-long 53-yarder in the second quarter.
Bryant has seen his scoring decline with the struggles of the Falcons offense in recent weeks. He'll look to get back on track Week 11 at Tampa Bay.

Matt Prater K | BUF
Matt Prater gets no field goal chances
Broncos kicker Matt Prater received zero field goal opportunities Week 10 against the Chargers.
Prater went a perfect four-for-four on his extra point attempts, but the team did not stall out close enough to the end zone to require him to kick any field goals. He'll look to improve on his performance Week 11 against the Chiefs.

Dolphins placekicker Caleb Sturgis landed on the injury report Thursday with a groin injury. He practiced only on a limited basis. There has been no indication, however, that he won't play Monday night at Tampa Bay.
Sturgis has nailed 20 of 25 field goal attempts this season, but has cooled off considerably after a hot start. He has missed four of his last seven.

Justin Tucker K | BAL
Justin Tucker perfect in imperfect game for Ravens
Ravens placekicker Justin Tucker tried just one field goal Sunday in Cleveland, but it was a bomb. He booted a 51-yarder in the first quarter to put his team on the board. He was also true on his lone extra point.

Matt Bryant K | ATL
Poor production for Matt Bryant
On a day the Falcons scored only 10 points, kicker Matt Bryant equaled his season-low scoring output with four points. The one extra point was a season low. He also kicked a 28-yard field goal in the second quarter.
Bryant (and the Falcons as a whole) will look to get back on track Week 10 against the Seahawks.

Graham Gano K | NYG
Graham Gano shows off his leg
With two field goals and four extra points, Panthers kicker Graham Gano scored double-digit points for just the third time this season Week 9 against the Falcons.

The Panthers visit the 49ers in Week 10.
