A 50 yarder is not what it was ten years ago. Kickers are now hitting from 70. They are expected to make 50's with ease now. They were actually talking about this on the radio the other day and why this happened. Kids are now starting to go to kicking camps at much younger ages now. There is so much specialized training now that the kicking game has vastly improved.
