Cameron Dicker the kicker stands above all the rest.
No one has ever kicked as well in the NFL as accurately as the Los Angeles Chargers' placekicker, and that became official on Monday night.
Dicker entered the night having made 93 of his 99 career field goal attempts in the NFL. To qualify for the all-time field goal percentage rankings, a kicker needs to have tried 100 regular season kicks.
The Chargers took on the Raiders on Monday night, and even if Dicker had missed a kick, he would've stood atop the NFL all-time leaderboard.
Instead, Dicker went 2-for-2. He's now 95-for-101, just above 94% for his career.
And he's the most accurate kicker in league history.

He's now ahead of Justin Tucker, the current free agent and former Ravens marksman, who is at 89.1%.
The next five names on the list are all active:
- Harrison Butker, 88.4%

- Chris Boswell, 88.2%
- Daniel Carlson, 87.4%
- Ka'imi Fairbairn, 87.1%

It'd take a whole chunk of misses for Dicker to fall back the five percentage points or so to second-place Tucker.
Dicker, who kicked collegiately at Texas, was cut three times in the NFL. The Rams, Ravens and Eagles all had him in their building, and none of them kept him.
Now, no one has done his job at the kicker position better than Dicker. And he's not going to start missing now.
