Evolution in accuracy

Field goal accuracy in the NFL has steadily improved over time. At the beginning of the league's start in the 1920s, to the first Super Bowls in the 1960s, kickers' accuracy was between 40 and 55%. In the 1970s and 1980s, leading kickers typically converted around 70–75% of attempts. By the late 1990s through the 2000s, kickers' accuracy increased to around 80–85%. From the 2010s to 2020s, many of the league's most accurate kickers regularly hit the high 80% with some exceeding 90%.

A 2015 article in FiveThirtyEight entitled "Kickers are Forever" found that kicker accuracy has increased over time, and there is a nearly perfect correlation between year and accuracy.
