In a Week 3 win against the San Francisco 49ers, Crosby made all 3 of his field goal attempts, including the 51-yard game-winner as time expired, earning NFC Special Teams Player of the Week. Against the Cincinnati Bengals, Crosby missed three straight field goals that could’ve won the game for the Packers but ended up making a game-winning field goal in overtime to help the Packers win 25–22.

In what had been an up-and-down year, the special teams unit was ranked dead last in efficiency by DVOA. This in part was due to the myriad of miscues and miss-kicks.

This blocked kick would come back to haunt the Packers as they went on to lose by a score of 13–10.
