Barth missed a 43-yard field goal Saturday against the Browns. The kick was his only opportunity of the night.

EDGE Analysis

Barth, who was signed earlier in the week to push struggling incumbent Patrick Murray, missed wide right near the end of the first half. Murray, who is competing with Barth to start at kicker for Tampa, also missed his only field goal chance of the night, a 44-yarder late in the game. Murray went 20-of-24 on field goals last year, his first in the NFL, and was retained after the Bucs cut Barth loose. The team brought him back as Murray continues to struggle. Tampa should move closer toward a decision this week as to who will handle primary kicking duties this season.
