Joey Freshwater posted:Not really a bad thing. Team message boards are loving awful Tampa shut its Message Board down for awhile because it was awful garbage. I'm surprised there aren't more teams that do this, actually. Also, I would draft a kicker in the Top 10 if we still kicked off from the 30 and touch backs went to the 20. I don't think coaches will ever consistently attempt kicks from 60+ because of the field position risk, but there's a lot of value in having a kicker who can make a higher percentage of 45-55 yard FG attempts. Also if we ever had a kicker who was also an NFL caliber punter, it may be worth it from a roster spot perspective.

This was last page, but if you're certain to make a 70 yard field goal, you take it every time over punting the ball deep because you then get to kick off right after anyways.

evilweasel posted:How meaningful is the extra 15-20 yards, statistically? I'm not going to rehash this. Just refer to my post which shows the actual probability of a win is higher for downing your opponent at the 5 than kicking the FG and getting a touchback, albeit with caveats on both sides. There's literally two pages of discussion on this. e: you aren't considering that a FG from your opponent doesn't win the game for them, but rather gives them a 50/50 chance of winning in OT. If they score a TD, you're hosed unless they miss the XP, which is much rarer.

Wouldn't your super accurate robo kicker be the one kicking off, so you wouldn't have to worry about him kicking it out of bounds or pinning them inside the 10 - he could just do it?

CyberPingu posted:Eh even a super accurate kicker could not account for a bad ball bounce A kicker that can hit 70 yard field goals should be able to get enough hang time for coverage to make it down the field and drop the ball inside the 10. This hypo was based on a FG or pinning them inside the 10. If you're far enough out for a 60-70 yard field goal, a punt is going to need 50-60 yards to pin someone deep. You would need a hell of a punter to make that consistently worthwhile vs points on the board.

Mr. Nice! posted:A kicker that can hit 70 yard field goals should be able to get enough hang time for coverage to make it down the field and drop the ball inside the 10. 50-yard punts are very common. Every starting punter in the NFL had a punt over 55 yards last year, and several averaged punt distances in the 48-50 yard range. You don't need a hell of a punter, you just need a decent one and a coverage unit that isn't rear end.

There's literally two pages of discussion on this. I did, that is the exact chart I'm looking at. It doesn't say "the actual probability of a win is higher for downing your opponent at the 5 than kicking the FG and getting a touchback". That's still relying on your assumptions about how coaches coach, which is a reasonable argument but you didn't post anything to support it. What I'm saying is that, looking at that chart, the field position bit doesn't seem all that relevant.

So 5% of the time, you get that 50/50 shot at winning (2.5%) plus your chances of just getting a TD (13%), so 15.5% chance of winning. Or losing, if you're the team that punted instead of going up 6.

I think we need Dr. Swickles to review: Getting hit in the face loving sucks regardless how it happens. That said, that blow didn't look too bad. You want to look for the head snap, that results in both tension on the ligaments as well as the brain moving within the skull. If the kicker could priduce a motiom resulting in the head snapping back, then there is concern for injury. Otherwise, the damage is superficial, which isn't to say it doesn't hurt.
