I don't know what the solution is, I just wanted to give you feedback as to what I am seeing right now.

Extra points
May 30, 2011 at 04:15PM View BBCode
For some reason we are still having issues with extra points. The league average is 95.7%; Montreal, Chicago and Carolina are at 90% or lower. The overall field goal percentage from less than 20 yards is 100% (although only 19 attempts) and 95% from 20-29 yards which leads me to believe that somehow there is something wrong specifically with extra points, which is hard to believe as an extra point is simulated as a field goal from the 2 yard line.I don't know what the solution is, I just wanted to give you feedback as to what I am seeing right now.

They are going to miss a lot of easier kicks, no?

Those teams have very inaccurate kickers. Two of them have KA in the 50s.They are going to miss a lot of easier kicks, no?

I'm not sure there's a problem other than a need perhaps to make sure every team at least has a decent kicker.

Those three guys are responsible for 12 of the 17 missed XPA so far this season.I'm not sure there's a problem other than a need perhaps to make sure every team at least has a decent kicker.

- The Nighthawks have a poor kicker, 57 accuracy and 22 execution
- The Bear Claws are using a punter as their placekicker. 70 accuracy and 30 execution, although it's effectively a 10 execution after out of position penalties
- Montreal has a below average kicker, 57 accuracy and 67 execution.
- 3 kicks were blocked, the rest outright misses.
- Most of the kicks that were missed are fairly near misses, ranging from 0.2 to 3.5 feet ouside the goal posts
- Windspeeds ranged from 5 to 16 mph for all misses, fairly average
- Temperatures were at 38 or above, most were 45 or above

I am going to make a slight adjustment to the angle extra points are kicked at so they aren't as affected by the wind... other than that I think I'm just going to keep an eye on it, as these three kickers are clear outliers.--Chris

Might be good to look at other leagues and see what the threshold is for kickers missing extra points...should never have to draft a kicker that can't kick extra points...I can go onto the street and get a high schooler for that!

Montreal has missed another extra point and had a second blocked in the 1st half of Week 17's game alone...on two attempts. Kinda a bit much, yeah?

I haven't put in the adjustments yet since the season is almost over.--Chris
