Chicago Bears’ Cairo Santos gets brutally honest on 58-yard game winner
Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson threw Cairo Santos into the fire against the New England Patriots. Make a 58-yard field goal to go up nine, or miss and give New England strong field position trailing by just a touchdown.
Santos came through, nailing a new career-long field goal. The Bears went on to win 30-24, moving to 5-2 on the season.
Earlier in the Thursday Night Football matchup, Santos missed a 53-yard field goal. He had at least one miss in his previous two games as well. Even with his heroics against the Patriots, the kicker is hitting at just a 73.3 clip through seven weeks.
Santos is elated to have come through for his team. But he is looking to be much more consistent moving forward.
Chicago Bears’ Cairo Santos still not satisfied
In the moment, Santos remained confident in his ability to hit a career-long field goal. He didn’t hesitate when asked if he wanted the opportunity. Coming up in the clutch how he did will significant impression on his teammates.
But Santos can’t get the misses out of his head. He bluntly said they annoy him. For all the hype around his 58-yard make, the kicker wasn’t in the celebrating mood, via Courtney Cronin of ESPN.
“I’m having a hard time celebrating these moments and I shouldn’t act this way, but I just feel like I’m hitting the ball way too good to have these misses happen,” Santos said. “Even though they’re from 50-plus, I’ve been making them all the time.”
Santos’ frustrations all came out on his 58-yard boot. He was at least elated to see his confidence pay off. Still, the kicker is hoping to see more of his rigorous preparation pay off come game time.
