Re: Janikowski

That was amazing. Looked like he had 1-2 more yards on it.

Might have been more than that. Seabass is a freak of nature.

Re: Janikowski

That was crazy! Not really wind aided either. Give him some wind and he might be able to go 75 or more.

Re: Janikowski

would all the moisture from the downpour help or hurt it though? I would think it would hurt a little. Or negate some of the advantage from the elevation. Elevation or not he is capable of 63 yarders anywhere.

Re: Janikowski

didn't Jason Elam also kick a 63 yarder for Denver 10 years ago? Must be the mile high altitude

I am in 2 leagues and run another, in none of them is a field goal from any distance worth more than 3 points. you want additional because your kicker it's from 60? you got them, in the form of the field goal that your guy hit that nobody else in the league made.

Do not like. Fat drug-dealer kickers annoy me.

So in both of your leagues, a 20 yard fg is worth the same amount of points as a 50 yard fg? that makes sense. Why even have K as a position then?

It makes tons of sense. FG's from 63 are worth exactly the same as FG's from 18 yards. Again the benefit of having a kicker that can hit from 50+ routinely is that he picks up all those extra 3's that other guys cant.

So do field players only get points for TD's and 2 point conversions then? No points for yards? A 99 yard run is only worth the same as a 1 yard run.
