Not a Pats fan, but that's why kickers like Adam Vinatieri (though he actually missed more then people remember) and Stephen Gostkowski are so valuable.
Kicking in the playoffs and Super Bowl is a whole different ball game in terms of pressure. Some of the best kickers in the league have fallen apart once the post-season hits. Some guys will get the yips in the playoffs, and are never the same for the rest of their career....for however long it might last after that.
Packers kicker basically did the same thing in a similar situation as the Bills kicker.
