Otherwise, he'd never have a year where he converts 64.5% of his field goals (BTW... why did you skip year 9?). Hell, he had 83.3 and 80 in two of the seasons your pimping by year 5 and he rarely attempted long kicks. Furthermore, that's not a skew (?). The following is a skew: You know how Mason Crosby often attempts kicks over 50 yards, sometimes beyond 55 and even 60? Well... you know what that does to a kicker's overall percentage? Skew. So comparing overall field-goal percentages between Longwell (or almost anyone other than Janikowski) and Crosby doesn't make much sense. You either have to account for Crosby's range that lowers his percentage or account for when Longwell could barely hit the crossbar from 50. Crosby would be another mid-80 guy too if he didn't kick those biggies. Anyway... unless the kicker is Adam V, people will complain. The hate for Crosby is just entertainment.
