That would've made it on the border of a 50 yarder and I don't think Payton is confident in Carney to make anything above 45. Also, if Carney misses it the Rams would've gotten the ball around the 40.


The ball was on the 35 and Carney uses a 6 yard set; that's a 41 yard field goal.

I give up, that would've been an fg attempt from 50 or 51 yards......

(don't make the mistake and add the 10 yards for the goal post; that's not included in the yardage for field goals).


Since when?

quote:

The measurement of a field goal's distance is from the point where the ball was positioned for the kick by the placekicker to the goalpost. In American football, where the goalpost is in the back of the end zone, the ten yards of the end zone are also added into the distance the line of scrimmage.

Your wrong the 10 yards is added to field goals. The yardage for punts is calculated from the line of scrimage not from the 15 yards behind where they actually kick it. so a 50 yard field goal is kicked from the 40, but a 50 yard punt is actually kicked 65 yards. I used to think you were smart.

More simply put that post was an epic fail.
