NFL kickers missed like never before Sunday, setting a record with 11 failed extra-point attempts.

Kickers missed left and right, had kicks blocked and hit the uprights. They missed in the wind and indoors. The 11 misses were the most in one week since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970.

The NFL moved extra-point attempts back before last season because the kicks had become routine, and kickers almost never missed. The 18-yard attempt became a 35-yarder. In Week 13 of last season, kickers missed eight extra points. That mark was eclipsed by mid-afternoon Sunday.

Cincinnati’s Mike Nugent and Robbie Gould of the New York Giants each missed two extra-point attempts.

Chicago’s Connor Barth, Minnesota’s Kai Forbath, Jacksonville’s Jason Myers, Cleveland’s Cody Parkey and New England’s Stephen Gostkowski each missed one. Seattle’s Steven Hauschka and Detroit’s Matt Prater had kicks blocked.

Barth and Gould were kicking in gusty winds in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Forbath, Myers and Prater missed despite being indoors.

“It was much windier than it usually is,” Giants long snapper Zak DeOssie said. “It was a cross-wind from our bench to theirs, then it switched toward the end of the game diagonal from our tunnel to the opposite tunnel.”

• Adam Vinatieri’s NFL record streak of consecutive field goals ended at 44 when a 42-yarder sailed wide right during the Colts’ 24-17 win at Tennessee.

BEARS: Right guard Kyle Long will require two surgeries before he gets back into action.

Long will undergo surgery to repair ligament damage in his right ankle suffered last Sunday at Tampa Bay. The surgery isn’t considered serious and it will be done before Long has surgery to repair the torn labrum in his left shoulder.

The Bears placed Long on injured reserve this week.

Long, who was named to the Pro Bowl in each of his first three seasons, suffered the shoulder injury in preseason, but the team determined that he could not do additional damage while playing.

BENGALS: A.J. Green’s right foot caught the turf as he was tackled on Cincinnati’s first pass attempt against the Bills. He rolled over onto his back and immediately grabbed his right hamstring.

And he stayed down.

In that moment, the Bengals knew their season had taken a turn.

Green suffered an injury to his right hamstring and was taken off the field on a cart. Cincinnati couldn’t do anything consistently without its big-play receiver during a 16-12 loss.

Green was third in the league in catches and second in yards receiving.

“Definitely, missing A.J. was a big piece, and it hurt us a lot,” running back Jeremy Hill said.
