Yea, that's what I was thinking. I wonder if FIRST teams could purpose build a robot that would be better than NFL kickers?

According to this link the NFL average for this season is 82.36%

I don't mean to post NFL propaganda on CD, but I'd trust a football kicking robot more to kick a 27 yarder more than Blair Walsh..
