8% success rate last year. You're going to give em the ball damn near the 50 yard line 92% of the time

90% of attempts are with the opposing team knowing it is coming, and otherwise, the game is likely a loss already if you don’t get the ball.

Otherwise, the surprise onside is probably recovered at a higher degree

Either way, Hands down, the most exciting play in the game

8% was the NFL number correct?
They are way less successful in the NFL than college. But no point in giving a number because it changes drastically each year.

And there's 2 different classifications. The necessary and the surprise.
The surprise has a much higher success rate every year and that's what we tried so many of.
Some years the surprise was rated at around 28% (or higher) successful.

This team is a bullpen away from being serious contenders. Doesn’t help when Snit mismanages the bullpen we have. It took a miracle to get him to take our worst hitter out of the leadoff spot. Fredi was worse, but Snit is right there at awful. Hopefully he doesn’t come back next year

I don't think you need a whole bullpen. But you do need some help.

Typically so. But Pruitt was doing it when FP still mattered heavily, from the ones I remember anyway.

Imo if you are down to NEEDING a 3 and out to even extend the game, then an onside is worth it. If the only outcome is a 3 and out or the clock expires, then I'd worry a lot less if I get it at my own 30 or 15 and value possession much more. But you don't see it often. People still kick full with 3 minutes left and no timeouts.

Sean Payton has a Super Bowl victory and an unexpected second half opening recovered onside kick turned the tide. As he improves the talent on the roster, I believe Pruitt won’t have the multiple attempts...tho talent didn’t stop Kirby. 😉

She can do all of the things. She absorbed power from the Tesseract. She’s been gone from earth since the 90’s.

As far as Endgame goes, that’s all I could possibly think you need to know

That seems really, really lazy. Now they just have to flesh out everyone's egos, add something dramatic, and tell Chris Pratt to tell a joke.
