How many steps can a field goal kicker take?

Answer 1

It depends on where it is kicked from. It would be the yardage from where the ball is snapped plus the additional 10 yards of the endzone plus seven yards (the typical yardage the holder sets behind the center). Therefore, if the fieldgoal is kicked from the 40 yard line, it would be considered a 57 yard fieldgoal. That's only six yards short of the NFL record of 63 yards, held by Saints kicker Tom Dempsey.

Answer 2

Once unless the ball does not pass the line of scrimmage, or a defensive penalty is called.

Answer 3

Three points are awarded for a field goal in American football.

Answer 4

It can legally be thrown once forward, but can be thrown backwards or sideways an unlimited amount of times.

Answer 5

One, unless the opposing team gets a penalty.

In that case the team attempting the kick gets another attempt at the kick usually from a shorter distance.

Answer 6

a team only has one attempt to make a field goal.

Answer 7

one i believe

Answer 8

only 4
