[@Gameplay1001]

I wonder why😂

[@AhmedAli-bl2ug]

Why is it ALWAYS Justin Tucker being jinxed smh

[@theywontstopsingingitscomin]

because the nfl is fixed and the goalposts have magnetic technology to attract the ball. look at tucker’s face, he knows something is wrong because his kick is supposed to go in 1:08

[@BruhMoment-hh4ff]

As a ravens fan, whenever they say a crazy stat right before tuck is about to kick it my face goes from 😁 to😐

[@rafanoodles5811]

Because his streaks are so good they are always the ones being talked about

[@aaronbedi132]

Ahmed Ali that’s why even when he is so good and he is up to kick I am nervous

[@Ramboost007]

Because he's so good he has long streaks of not missing, and these streaks are notable enough that the announcers always highlight them. Therefore when he misses, he snaps a long streak that the announcer just referred to.

[@VinayKumar-vs5qh]

When the Falcons were in the sb “there has never been a lead blown +10 points” and look what happened 🙄

+10 means more than ten. Not 10 or more points.

[@michaelmcgettigan451]

Lmao Justin tucker just missed after the announcer said “and he almost never misses”

[@Trepur349]

The correlation is reversed. Generally these streaks, when they're big enough to merit being mentioned, it means it's become such an outlier the streak is bound to end soon.

[@jonathangoliath91]

[@Trepur349]

@@jonathangoliath91 meant causation is reversed, whatever

[@indy_go_blue6048]

True enough. Try to do anything simple 100 times in a row like bounce and catch a golf ball. Chances are you're going to miss it somewhere along the line.

[@yoonjeongsoo9378]

and the announcers and the graphics team will mention it each and every time the number goes up

[@jacksondavies1451]

No, the odds are the same for missing on your first attempt as it is on your 100th.

[@bc-518]

if you mention "Tucker has made X straight field goals" every time he kicks, someday he will miss and there comes the "Jinx"

Im gonna miss Al Michaels when he retires

[@Alexkearney]

I thought this would show Tucker in the Bills playoff game. Well I had no idea this wasn't the first time.

[@kjsciacca]

It’s not a “jinx” when the announcers bring up the kickers streak EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. they kick. Of course they’re going to eventually miss one. How about a video showing all the times his streak was mentioned before a kick and he DIDN’T miss

[@unkledoda420]

That's why Tucker is on the list multiple times

[@user-sr1pp7sv9q]

Let people have fun

[@sijackex305]

I guess every play juju goes on the field they talk about his hands?

[@gordonzhou9158]

2 days ago during the Spurs and Lakers game there was a player called Patty Mills who was 9/9 for freethrows for the season going into the game and 11/11 including the game itself. The announcer was extremely excited in saying that he's never missed a freethrow this season even though 11/11 freethrows isn't really even worth mentioning given how many consecutives the pros can hit. But the announcer was just hyping it up like it was the greatest feat ever then low and behold, he misses the next freethrow he took.

[@theKeshaWarrior]

Ok did you watch the video? They are clearly not being super serious about this. He literally says "it's an opportunity to laugh at yourself" because it's just funny timing.

[@aidantrujillo1477]

Actually he did make it, but in your universe the wind blew it away from the middle.

[@mitchellpalmer782]

I think this happens in part because announcers only mention these trends once they're really impressive. Like the announcers probably won't mention that a kicker has made 4 straight field goals, but they will if he's made 40. And the longer the streak goes on, the larger chance it's going to end on the next play.

[@chronicprocrastina]

Speaking of the "Graphics Jinx", one that I'll always remember, isn't even NFL. After an early round victory by Rafael Nadal in the 2015 US Open, ESPN flashed a graphic that said that Rafael Nadal was undefeated in majors when winning the first 2 sets. His NEXT MATCH, he has a 2-0 set lead against Fabio Fognini, and he blows it and loses the match.

Tuckers 66 yard fg is a tainted record. IMO. Had the refs not completely blew a delay of game the play before it would’ve never happened

[@TPTGopher]

Chris Collinsworth - 2012 Week 17 SNF, Redskins lead the Cowboys 21-18, Dallas gets the ball back with about 3 minutes left, after Romo starts things off with a first down to Witten: "Wouldn't it be amazing? The blitz beats them all night long, and in the final drive, they could finally solve the Rubik's Cube, and it's with the guy that is his favorite receiver"...which he barely finishes before a blitzed Romo makes what one of the Washington radio guys would call a "numbskull throw" and gets intercepted, allowing the Redskins to eventually score the TD that would put the game out of reach.

[@maryshaw9541]
