True about points scored, but the kicker is the only person on the pitch who can score (apart from very rare trick plays) when they are on the pitch, so they get all the points. However, just like on a normal offensive play, other players do contribute to scoring the points. What would the stats be like if you averaged out points scored across all the people on the pitch at the time?
(I have no idea, possibly kickers are still the GOATs)
âKicks can only be made by players that were on the field during the previous playâ could result in some hilarity. Do you bring your kicker in to line up as a wide receiver on third and 6 from the 25yd line? Does a long out-of-nowhere touchdown run mean one of the wide receivers ends up kicking the extra point? Which linebacker gets to kick after a pick 6? Man this could be so much fun
Trying to ensure heâs an MVP lock was the only reason I could think of as to why he was still on the field late in the 4th quarter last night. But really he shouldnât need it. It shouldnât even be close.
