Didn’t the Seahawks bring in a few rugby coaches to drill tackling techniques? Might have caught it from them, since dropkicks are much more common in rugby.
The genius of this play is that nobody ever sees it coming. In none of these highlights was any serious attempt at a block made. On the other hand it’s hard to pull off anyway with or without defense.

Although it hasn't happened in a very long time, the rules of the CFL still allow a drop kick to be taken from anywhere on the field for an attempt at a field goal. For example, if a player is running with the ball and they needed 3 points to win but there was no way they could get to the end zone, they could attempt a drop kick field goal. In the CFL, the goal posts are right over the goal line so they are closer to the field of play.
American's grew up throwing the ball, Aussies grow up kicking it. The drop punt is a staple of our game, AFL, so if Dickson really wanted to he'd be able to get a field goal on the run.
Am I seeing a slightly different goal signal from the referees at 1:08? It really doesn't look like the usual referee 'arms up' goal signal. Is the drop kick goal signal different from the regular touchdown, field goal, or extra point referee signal?
If you want to see amazing drop kicks then search "rugby drop goals". Although this types of kicks are more common in Rugby, it doesn't happen every game. Drops kicks are only used in desperate situations. It's kind of like trying to win an NFL game with only field goals if you can't make touch downs.
aspenrebel - The ball is rounder which makes for a more reliable bounce but if you look up a player called Francois Steyn there is video of him drop kicking the ball in a professional league game from 60m (66 yrds). Thats longer than the longest place kick in American Football history.
I can see why drop kicks are so rare compared to rugby. The ball used in American Football is harder to kick in fact all attempts in this video have been for the 1 point after the touchdown or very close to the goal. Another reason is that in college and professional American Football kickers enter the field to only kick the ball which makes this supposed trick play too predictable, which isn't the case in Rugby. The reason why this play is more common at high school level is because at those levels there are no players whose job is to enter the field only to kick the ball, making this trick play more viable at those levels.
@@diggsfather I guess that one failed, huh? Like when Dempsey (club foot as kicking foot with a squared off toe on boot) set NFL record with a 63 yard FG (I think it was) for Green Bay, Head Coach Lombardi thought the ball was being kicked from opponent's 37 yard line NOT Green Bay's 37 yard line (goal posts were on the goal line back then, not moved back 10 yards to back line of end zone).
@@aspenrebel When there's the extra point attempt, but the D gets the ball, and runs it to the other end - is it only worth 1 or 2 points, according to the attempt? I think saw one like that last Season or the season before. I'd give 6p or at least 5. I'd yield that 1p off, because it's a bit easier performance than a pick 6. But still a whole field covered. And then the special team would remember there's a risk involved. Yet the opponent rarely scores, especially from the kick. And safety should be more valuable, like 4 points. I think it's more difficult than a FG. Incidentally, then all scorings were possible 1-6 points, acording to the difficulty.
@@timomastosalo You must type better. I'm not sure what you are saying. A Safety is 2 pts, then you get the ball back again when the other team gets a free kick from their 20 yd line. Which, I believe can be a punt or a kickoff or a drop kick. I think you can do a kickoff, but not from a tee, another player has to hold it. So most teams choose to punt, cuz it gives them better control and "hang time". No!! You are incorrect. If there is a 1 pt PAT kick attempt, and it fails, and the Defense returns it all the way to the other endzone, they get 2 pts. If a 2 pt conversion attempt fails, and the Defense returns it to the other endzone, they get 2 pts. I dunno why. I think they should get 1 pt for returning a 1 pt PAT Kick attempt, and 2 pts for attempting a 2 pt conversion (run or pass) attempt. Also, the stupidest thing is moving a PAT kick attempt back to the 15 yard line, or wherever the hell it is, and NOT on the 2 yard line as it always was. Thank you Bill Belichick for that.!!! A 2 pt conversion attempt is from the 2 yd line. What it does, is it takes away the Fake PAT kick attempt, and turn it into a 2 pt conversion attempt. At least I think you use to be able to do that. But of course, for a long time the NFL did not have a 2 pt conversion. They only put it back in awhile ago. Did you just edit your comment? Something seems to be missing now. The reason it is called "football" is because originally the emphasis was on kicking the ball, and scoring by kicking. I think FG were more points than a TD. Back when the field was laid out in a "gridiron" pattern of squares (hence the phrase "the gridiron classic" for a football game, or "played on the gridiron"). There were no yard lines and numbered yards. A "1 point safety" is when a team attempts a 1 point PAT Kick, the kick is blocked, the ball is recovered in the field of play (i.e. not in the endzone) by the Defense, the Defense attempts to return it to the other endzone for 2 pts, but the Defense player runs into his OWN endzone of his OWN volition, and is then tackled in the endzone by the Kicking Team. That's a "1 point Safety". Not sure what it is on a FG attempt. I know it's NOT 3 pts, but not sure if that's a 1 pt Safety or a 2 pt Safety. Might be a 2 pt Safety. Cuz a FG attempt is still playing the game. A PAT is AFTER a TD, so normal plays has stopped, so it's an "extra point". A 1 pt PAT kick attempt cannot be faked and turned into a 6 pt TD. But a 3 pt FG Attempt can be faked and result in a 6 pt TD.
Drop kicks should be allowed from anywhere on the field in American Football again. More plays of the ball with the feet should be allowed again as was in the past. Bring back more of the FOOT in American Football...
Ha! It's not too often that I watch a RUclips video about football and see the team I played for in high school. This was obviously well after my time, but I had no idea they successfully attempted a drop kick.
I'd love to see this return to pro football, with a 2 pt extra point, or more from distance. Have american football return to its roots. Since it originated from rugby
Warren552011 actually a drop punt is a random long high Ball in Rugby union, Rugby league and NFL if they used this kicking Style in Aussie rules it would be a very stupid Sport. they have to aim the ball to a person and through the goal posts and I'm pretty sure aussie rules is the most played Sport hear then maybe chricket soccer then rugby etc
Darcy Sutherland the 2 biggest sports in Australia by far are Aussie Rules Football (AFL) and Rugby League (NRL) it just depends which state you're from, cricket is 3rd, soccer is 4th, rugby union is 5th, basketball is 6th
Devion You can, but there's no reason to. Lots of extra risk for no benefit. Back in the olden days, a drop kick could be done from anywhere on the field, like a carrier might see the secondary closing in and kick it for a relatively easy three. (If you've ever seen Aussie Rules Football they still do that.) Now the kick has to be done from behind the line of scrimmage, so you may as well have a holder.
Frijole They don't really do drop kicks anymore in the AFL. They sometimes say "drop punts" but those are really just punts, perhaps lower to the ground than a football punt. In rugby the drop kick is still pretty common both to start the halves and to score points during play.
A QB could be about to get sacked near the goal line and try to salvage 3 points. (I believe it counts as a field goal if not done following a touchdown) Or if for some reason a team wanted to kick a field goal without making it look like they were going to attempt a field goal. The opposite of a fake field goal I guess. Just not something people have a reason to utilize.
NFL should make drop kicks 2 points because then teams may start finding professional drop kickers to get nice and easy 2 points after touchdowns instead of the 2 point conversions
A Dropkick isn't it just a punt instead of a placekick for a field goal/pat? I would think that the accuracy for punting through the end zone would just as good as a placekick so not sure why it doesn't happen more often. Just think about it with a dropkick you don't need a player to be a holder which gives you an extra potential receiver on a fake pat/2 point conversion attempt.
Joe McKim As stated above, a drop kick must not the ground before it is kicked. This dramatically reduces accuracy versus a punt (which doesn't hit the ground before the kick and can't score anyway), much less a place kick (standard FG attempt, with a holder). So, yeah, nobody attempts drop kicks in the NFL. Per the comments above, you used to be able to perform a drop kick at any time (and you still can in some flavors of rugby). This would, for example, allow a receiver to catch a pass, realize he isn't going to score a TD, then setup and perform a drop kick. Even if this rule was reverted, though, the only situation it would make sense is If time had expired in a half, or perhaps a "4th and 50+ " situation. Note in rugby being tackled means your team has a 50% chance of retraining possession (it's a continuous action game, like basketball or hockey) so it makes sense to try to score on each carry, even if the odds are very low.
geez, why are they so rare in NFL, its bread and butter stuff in rugby and from greater distance and angle and often with defense a lot more aggressive... aren't they worth the risk/benifit?
Back when Belichick and the Patriots wasn’t cheating. It also showed Belichick smiling as if he was enjoying coaching. When you cheat it sucks out the fun of the games

Frijole They don't really do drop kicks anymore in the AFL. They sometimes say "drop punts" but those are really just punts, perhaps lower to the ground than a football punt. In rugby the drop kick is still pretty common both to start the halves and to score points during play.
A QB could be about to get sacked near the goal line and try to salvage 3 points. (I believe it counts as a field goal if not done following a touchdown) Or if for some reason a team wanted to kick a field goal without making it look like they were going to attempt a field goal. The opposite of a fake field goal I guess.
Just not something people have a reason to utilize.
Could you do top preseason plays?
I hope I see more of that
I read once where Jim McMahon said he could hit a 50-yard drop kick, but Coach Ditka never let him attempt this in a real game.
So does the ball have to hit the ground first and then you kick it?
Seattle's Punter just did two dropkicks in one game
Does the ball have to hit the ground before you kick it?
Yes
NFL should make drop kicks 2 points because then teams may start finding professional drop kickers to get nice and easy 2 points after touchdowns instead of the 2 point conversions
Does anyone know who the teams are in the play with the white and blue teams?
I think its my team but i can't tell for sure.
A traditional drop kick is when you let the ball lay on the ground and kick from there
I'm a football fan beginner, please someone tell me why they do it while they can earn the same points in much safer way by field goal?
Holly hell,an over emotional outburst from bellichic.
If you type in "Samoan lineman drop kicks PAT" you'll see a textbook dropkick.
0:35 first time I saw Billicheck smiling
Please do a free kick compilation. I know most of them miss, but it's still a cool play.
If you only get one point for a dropkick, (which is the same as a PAT) why would any team attempt a drop kick?
it’s cool but honestly what’s the point if u have a kicker who makes 90% of their PATS 😂
Yo that dropkick at 2:56 is incredible
Where is Michael Dickson??? He had quite a few drop kicks this season.
He does kickoffs that way. Scoring with a drop kick is basically unheard of.
I'm confused..when going for the 2 point conversion, why drop kick? Why not just kick the extra point regular?
A Dropkick isn't it just a punt instead of a placekick for a field goal/pat? I would think that the accuracy for punting through the end zone would just as good as a placekick so not sure why it doesn't happen more often. Just think about it with a dropkick you don't need a player to be a holder which gives you an extra potential receiver on a fake pat/2 point conversion attempt.
Joe McKim As stated above, a drop kick must not the ground before it is kicked. This dramatically reduces accuracy versus a punt (which doesn't hit the ground before the kick and can't score anyway), much less a place kick (standard FG attempt, with a holder). So, yeah, nobody attempts drop kicks in the NFL.
Per the comments above, you used to be able to perform a drop kick at any time (and you still can in some flavors of rugby). This would, for example, allow a receiver to catch a pass, realize he isn't going to score a TD, then setup and perform a drop kick. Even if this rule was reverted, though, the only situation it would make sense is If time had expired in a half, or perhaps a "4th and 50+ " situation. Note in rugby being tackled means your team has a 50% chance of retraining possession (it's a continuous action game, like basketball or hockey) so it makes sense to try to score on each carry, even if the odds are very low.
Umm 😐 I thought you had 300,000 subs, now it says 85,000 but I'm still subscribed and ready for the next video.
I kind of feel bad for you man...
Why isn't that a spike? Is the drop like a fumble?
It's what they use to do in the 20s and early 30s in place of a field goal, before the ball was oval shaped.
lol I love drew Bree's and that was kinda funny when he did one
Some of those looked like punts.
I think some were kicked before the ball hit the ground.
Damm Nick Saban on Dolphins 😄
What exactly is a drop kick ?
Like whats the point of it?
why dont kickers do this more often? you could make field goal from 75 yards out. that's a serious game changer.
you have to let the ball hit the ground before you kick, much harder than regular place kick.
I thought a drop kick was gonna be like the martial arts drop kick. didn't know it was a thing.
geez, why are they so rare in NFL, its bread and butter stuff in rugby and from greater distance and angle and often with defense a lot more aggressive... aren't they worth the risk/benifit?
because the ball is more pointed on the tips making it harder to get a good drop then kick
Watch the NRL (national rugby league, Australia) if you want to see drop kicks
Consider a drop kick as an act of courtesy for place holders, they've been through too much.
They should make dropkicks 4 points because they are asking you to take way more risk for no reward
Back when Belichick and the Patriots wasn’t cheating. It also showed Belichick smiling as if he was enjoying coaching. When you cheat it sucks out the fun of the games
0:34 put a tear in my eye.
1:23 I consider myself a niner fan and I knew our kickers were pro bowlers and joe Staley but I had no idea we had a pro bowl long snapper wtf I’ve never seen that guy lol
Why is that footage from 1941 more clear then the pats game 😂?
i didnt know drop kicks were a thing why don’t they do this more often?
For the same reason righthanded quarterbacks don't throw lefthanded....
Yeah the Flute Boy wanted to try to Drop Kick a FG, but Belichick never gave him the chance. Wow those goal posts are narrow in arena football.
