'Wizard of Boz' was the heart of the Steelers' Week 1 victory over the Falcons
The Wizard of Boz was back in regular-season shape this week in Atlanta. Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell started off his regular season campaign with a bang, or should I say, six of them. Boswell made Steelers history in the 18-10 win over the Falcons in Atlanta, becoming the first kicker in franchise history to hit three or more attempts from 50-plus yards.

Boswell unfortunately plays in the same division as arguably the greatest kicker of all time, Justin Tucker. This results in Boswell's efforts going more under the radar. However, after Sunday, perhaps it is time for the NFL to start putting respect on Boz's name.
In Atlanta, he hit from 25, 40, 44, 51, 56 and 57 yards. Boswell will look to keep the momentum going in Denver for the Week 2 matchup against the Broncos.
