I don’t disagree, but this is too tempting:or he would become ineffective in a bigger role.

I wonder if this will affect decisions about long FGs in the SuperBowl?The problem with that chart is that, IMHO, it's not accurate because they roll the 50 yarders in with the 40+ as if they are the same difficulty.
Also, not sure if Hill's numbers include Post-Season since the % don't match up with the stats the NFL has..
Stephen Gostkowski Stats | Pro-Football-Reference.com
Stephen Gostkowski: Career Stats at NFL.com
Regular season (NFL doesn't include Post Season in Career stats on player pages)
2016 - 40-49 = 9/10 50+ = 2/4 11/14 = 78.6%
2017 - 40-49 = 8/11 50+ = 4/4 12/15 = 80%
2018 - 40-49 = 4/6 50+ = 2/5 6/11 = 54% <------ minor concern.
2018 Missed 40+ FGs :
54 yard against JAX
50 yard against BUF
52 yd against TEN
48 yd against MIN
42 yd against MIA
*46 yd against LAR
* - missed in SB.
of the 6 Missed 40+ yd FGs, only the 42 yarder should have been a gimmie, though it was in MIAMI where Gostkowski has had issues since 2011.
Missed FGs in Miami for Gost:
2011 - Missed 48 yd FG
2012 - Missed 49 yd FG
2013 - Missed 48 yd FG
2014 - No Misses
2015 - Missed 46 yd FG
2016 - Missed 52 yd FG
2017 - no misses
2018 - Missed 42 yd FG
2019 - Missed 48 yd FG
I wonder if this will affect decisions about long FGs in the SuperBowl?
He should have stopped at "small sample size". Meaning and pointless graph with respect to 2019.
Also a pretty weird choice to make a cut off at 40+ instead of the normal 50+ range. Makes one wonder..
Your dream happened a decade ago my friend
Tennessee Titans at New England Patriots - October 18th, 2009 | Pro-Football-Reference.com
Nate Washington's 1 catch for -22 yards always gives me a chuckleAh, the snow game where the Titans had the wrong footwear.
Is that what happened in SB42 when Belichick went for it on 4th and long, inside of FG range? Or are you talking about a different game?I have a feeling that there won't be a college football game 24h before the SB on the very same field. So conditions will be completely different.
Different circumstances...Bill went for the 1st down on 4th/13 during SB42 not because of poor field conditions, but because he didn't really trust his 2nd-year Place-Kicker to make a 49-yard FG after he shanked the KO following the Pats TD early in the 2nd quarter.Is that what happened in SB42 when Belichick went for it on 4th and long, inside of FG range?
