Jets' Rex Ryan on Justin Tucker's FG: 'I felt like I got kicked in the head'

The New York Jets saw their playoff hopes diminished on Monday night when Justin Tucker's 61-yard field goal lifted the Baltimore Ravens over the Detroit Lions. 

As Jets head coach Rex Ryan explained Wednesday, he got a bad feeling when, in the final minute, the Ravens elected to send Tucker onto the field.

"I felt better about Detroit stopping them on fourth down than I did this kid missing from 61, which sounds crazy," Ryan said, Michael J. Fensom of the Newark Star-Ledger.

"I felt like I got kicked in the head," Ryan later added.
