Drop kicks dont happen much in American football ?

[canadateck]

Last one was in 1941

[Craig Tucker]

Shit they are rare , for what reason. Regular occurance in Rugby and worth 3 points.

In fact England winning the Rugby World Cup owes a hell of a lot to the skill of Jonny Wilkinsons drop kicking.

Whats the score for a Drop kick in American Football.

[canadateck]

it's worth 1 point, Its more common in the CFL.

I think it's rare because of the shape of the Ball.Not as easy to drop on point..(I guess).

Heres a vid for you


"Jonny Wilkinson on the kick that won the World Cup "

Yawn. Who'd wan't to see tick tock going through the motions :P

[canadateck]

That web site had some great info on the sport, some things I would never imagine were rules in the game. But the videos get a little boring after a while plus the quality wasn't very good.

it's worth 1 point

In this case it was a 1 point conversion which is a point kicked after a touchdown. Rugby has something similar after scoring a try.

A drop kick field goal during the normal play would be for 3 points.

[lordsmurf]

I didn't even know anybody other than the kicker was allowed ot kick the ball.

3 points, same as rugby then, and worth going for, if a try (or touchdown) does not appear to be on.

Thats what I find strange, that it is the first one in over 60 years. A good drop kicker can have a huge influence on a game of rugby.

How many points are there for a touchdown? ( As Craig said, in Rugby Union there are 5 points for a try, 2 for a conversion and 3 for a drop goal/penalty).

I guess if a "converted touchdown" (or whatever its called) is worth considerably more than a few drop goals there wouldn't be much benefit.

[ZippyP.]

6 points for a touchdown, 1 for a kicked convert, 2 for a convert that is carried into the end zone either by running or passing. So a convert is normally kicked for 1 point (easier) unless the end of the game is near and they really need to get 2.

I didn't even know anybody other than the kicker was allowed ot kick the ball.

The quarterback is allowed to punt too, Randall Cunningham did it twice. the onlt time I can recall a quarterback punting. He was a punter in college. Both times they were deep in the endzone on 3rd and forever....

The first one went 91 yards and is the 4 th longest in NFL history as no one was expecting it. I'm a eagles fan I saw both live, I actually expected the second one.

[canadateck]

I would like to get my hands on a official rulebook of the NFL, there's so many rules that even people that have been watching the game for years don't even know.

[scustalow]

I never was able to get any of these links to work ..anyone help?
