What kind of kick is rare in the CFL in that the kicker drops the ball onto the ground and kicks it on the bounce?
This kind of kick is called a drop kick. A drop kick, unlike a punt, where the kicker kicks the ball without bouncing it, satisfies the conditions for a field goal, so if the player drop kicks the ball through the goalposts, he scores three points.
Drop kicking is fairly difficult with the elongated North American ball as compared to the rounder Rugby ball.
Nevertheless, a quarterback who developed this skill would have an advantage, as he could try a pass play on third down in the red zone, and if nobody was open, could kick for three points.

What is the difference between a field goal and a after point in football?
A punt is when the kicker drops the ball and kicks it before it hits the ground. You cannot score any points on a punt (unless the receiver muffs or fumbles the ball, making it live). A field goal must be kicked off the ground, either by place-kick or drop-kick, and must travel between the uprights to score. A place-kick is where a holder places the ball on the ground for the kick. A drop-kick is where the kicker does not use a holder, and instead drops the ball and kicks it when it touches the ground or as it bounces off the ground.

Can the kicker punt the ball into the uprights on a fieldgoal?
I believe this IS allowed in the NFL so long as the ball leaves the kicker's foot before crossing the line of scrimmage. I can't recall though ever seeing this type of kick DONE in an NFL game. ---- A field goal is attempted when the ball is placed on the ground for the kicker to kick or when the ball is dropped to the ground and kicked once it touches the ground and starts its bounce back up. In other words, the ball must have touched the ground or is touching the ground when the kick is attempted for the attempt to be considered a 'field goal attempt'. A punt occurs when a kicker kicks the ball before it has touched the ground. No points can be scored by a punt. So the answer to the question, as I understand it, is no. No. If a punted ball travels through the uprights, no points are scored. The ball has to make contact with the ground before it's kicked to score points, either by placekick or dropkick.
