I am missing XPs like crazy! Does anyone know how this can be fixed? Here is my build:

Strength: 30.26 Blocking: 7
Speed: 17.08 Tackling: 9
Agility: 19.51 Throwing: 13.23
Jumping: 13.23 Catching: 10
Stamina: 16.52 Carrying: 9
Vision: 30.19 Kicking: 78.02
Confidence: 47 Punting: 8

SAs have 6 each in them, can anyone help me out?!

Your kicking is fine, stamina is OK, the misses are not because you are tired. Strength should be boosted to 48, Confidence to 48, train up the speed and agility.

My kicker (Herrera - lvl 23) has only missed 2 xp in 2 seasons (109 of 111). Here are his key numbers

Strength: 47.6
Speed: 20.77
Agility: 20.34
Jumping: 13.62
Stamina: 16.02
Vision: 35.71
Kicking: 62.22 (+ 16 in equip)
Confidence: 45.5 (+ 2 in equip)

I will boost this season ASAP and will invest in Strength, Confidence to the 48 soft cap. That will leave 11 that I am undecided about.

SAs are 5 - 5 - 4, so I may put some here.

My other kicker (Turner - lvl 15) has also only missed 2 (43 of 45) in 1½ seasons. He is built similar to Herrera.

I hope this helps

Doesn't VISION help ACCURACY?

Yes - I was going to amend my post to include an increased importance for vision. Of course, kicking (or punting) are the main attribute and should take preference, all the others (strength, agility, vision and speed) should be trained equally and boosted when K has gone over the soft cap. All equipment should be in kicking (which I have learned since starting, and it cost me to redo most of Herrera's equip).

Everyone misses them. I think due to either being lower level players or perhaps the only way to eliminate is to be maxed out in the automatic SA.

I did hear something about vision being important, but I guess I just forgot about it. So what should I do when I boost later? I was thinking 7 in strength, 7 in vision, and 1 in agility, (I'm leaving out confidence because I automatically get 1 per level, so it'll be around 50 by then) does that sound good?

Also, can someone tell me how speed helps a Kicker? (other then on kickoffs of course)

"Kicking mechanics"

There's not really any specific answer. It just does.

speed helps a kicker's leg speed. Eventually we will start seeing blocked kicks and if your kicker has faster speed he can get the kick off faster. Also on LONG FGs the fasster the leg is swinging toward the ball the more momentum it will create allowing the ball to go farther. Didin't they teach you about centrifical force in school?
