Did Leigh Tiffin not win the Groza? I thought he did. I know he was a finalist for it.

He was a finalist in 2009 when Kai Forbath won.

I like Shelley and he has certainly improved, but for a guy who doesn't kick anything beyond 43 yards to be on the Groza watch list says a lot about the number of guys on it.

Congrats to Shelley, came back from a game that would end most kickers and became a better player for it.
