It's actually amazing how good these kickers are nowadays.
Mark Moseley, who inexplicably won an NFL MVP Award in the 80's, and was considered an elite kicker of his era, had a lifetime FG% that would get him laughed off the worst team in the leagues practice squad. Hell, he was barely 50% in the Playoffs. His longest FG his MVP year was 48 yards. I understand field conditions and all that are also different, but kickers are expected to have perfected their craft from early childhood now...just like QB's, RB's, WR's and MLB pitchers. |

Agreed. Players are bred to play at an early age today. In Mosely's era and earlier Football was a part time profession. Players had to work jobs in the off-season to prepare for life after football. There were no kicking schools or passing academies back in the day etc. Heck a player today could set his grand children and great grand children up for life just by being a long snapper.
