the fair catch free kick rule...

Question... What do y'all believe are the odds that someone in the NFL gets a chance and converts one this season?
It hasn't been done in 40 years, but NFL kickers are getting stronger and stronger legs, and people screaming for Belichick to try one in the last Super Bowl have made people aware of the rule.

It's such a situational thing that even if you had the kicker strong enough to do it, even the opportunity would only come up once in a blue moon

We won a game like this in highschool.
It was a tied game and they punted from there own 10 with under 20 sec left. Short punt, fair caught around the 35. Nailed the kick for the win.

Also, a rule people don't realize is after a safety...a free kick, even if punted...is treated like a total kick-off live ball.
The most bizarre onside kick recovery you will ever see
Rule 6-1-5 states that “Any K (kicking team) player may recover a free kick if it has both touched the ground and goes beyond the plane of R’s (receiving team) free kick line (which is 10 yards from the kickoff line).
Back to the fair catch free kick rule.
In high school, you can still free kick even after you play an offensive snap if there is a pass interference on the play. And then you can free kick after the penalty enforcement.
These choices remain if a dead-ball foul occurs prior to the down, or a foul of an inadvertent whistle occurs during the down and the down is replayed.

I watched Neil Rackers have a shot at one live in 2008 but he shanked the frick out of it.

Interesting that the article is using the kickoff as an argument for attempting it, do they not know that they're comparing apples and oranges?
