1B4IDie Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Icing the kicker has been statistically proven to be a worthless endeavor. In other words, it doesn't work. It is what crappy coaches do to make it look like they are big thinkers. Its actually not worthless. Its been proven to benefit the KICKER. The percentage increases when the kicker is "iced". Analytics man. Analytics. id be curious if theres any change in percentage if its a coach that normally doesnt doit actually surprising the kicker who thinks its not going to happen, for instance. or if the analytics will show some kickers more prone to flubbing it while others appreciate the practice kick(very possible, though samples are likely too small for individual kickers). The Sample set is so small it'd be really hard to isolate this on a per kicker basis. They may get "iced" 5 times in their whole career and that would be a lot.
