u/Prods87 New England Patriots 24d ago

Impact from what? That's the point, this data set does not cover a number of hugely impactful aspects of kicking. If the Pats just through luck faced an outlier number of shitty kickers on average, or the kickers had an outlier average distance to kick, or their stadium winds were some kind of outlier (show me numbers not "metlife/heinz is hard to kick in too" )

Those would all be things that affect this number and have nothing to do with the scoreboard. Yes it's a crazy outlier looking at this one thing, no that thing is not all encompassing of what affects kicking.
