23 kickers · 135 total doinks · 13% made overall

Cartesian plot of 23 NFL kickers with 4+ career doinks across 2+ seasons (plus zero-doink kickers shown as hollow dots) (field goals only), positioned by doinks per game played (X-axis) and made-doink conversion rate (Y-axis). Quadrants split at a 0.0625 doink rate (~1 doink per 16-game season) and 30% made rate. Triangles indicate kickers beyond the chart bounds (below 0.02 or above 0.105 doink rate, or above 60% made rate). Dot opacity reflects games played within the period (more solid = longer tenure). Coverage: 2006–2015.
