Here are some interesting stats.
Code:
%Made
1 - 19 20-24 30-39 40-49 50+
------------------------------------------------------------------
Adam 100 92 82 70 47
Paul 100 94 67 72 66
Now look at % of total attempts at each range
Code:
% Attempted
1 - 19 20-24 30-39 40-49 50+
------------------------------------------------------------------
Adam 2 33 28 31 5
Paul 1 21 27 37 13
( Note: Percentages were rounded so they don't add up to 100%)
One thing to note 50% of Pauls attemps came from 40+ range while
only 36% of adams came from this long range.
This would tend to give Adam the better overall percentage.
Also note in the last 3 years Paul made 9 Fgs from 50+ yds
while Adam has made none.
Another thing that hurt Paul's overall percentage was for some reason
he kicked poorly in the 30-39 yd range in the last two years.
From preevious years he should be better at this range.
Add to this a report that says Paul is also and outdoor kicker who has
demonstrated he does well in clutch situations.
I for one would be very happy to get this kicker to replace Adam.
