What would you do to make the Field Goal attempt in the NFL more exciting?
These guys hardly ever miss anymore and in an indoor stadium, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. 50+ yard FGs are hardly challenging anymore.
How would you bring more of a suspense element in Field Goal attempts? Or, are you happy the way it is, having FGs pretty much automatic?
I'm all for narrowing the goal posts to make the kicks more difficult and also have the kickers have to kick at angles like they used to have to do before the hash marks were brought in to line up with the uprights years ago.
At Hmmm: So, if you lead your team into FG position you "deserve" the 3 points?? If that's the case, why not just put in a rule that once the offense reaches the 30 yard line, you get 3 points?

If you want to increase intensity of field goals here is a concept. Angle the field goal attempt. What we have is left and right # marks. Vary the position of the spot by quarter. Let's say first quarter left 5 yards of the left # marks 2nd quarter 10 yards, 3Rd qrt 15 and 4th quarter 20 yards.all overtime games must be kicked from the 20 yards left or right # mark.
Make all field goals running kicks no set plays. Have the QB toss the ball instead of a holder placing the ball and Allow the kicker 5 seconds to pass or kick it out being touched.
Lastly eliminate field goals after first ot period.

I disagree, I do not think it's an automatic. If it was then the Bills would have won Super Bowl 25 or 26 (I forget).
The Pats lost the game this year on a penalty. And every year we see many examples where games are won and lost with made, missed, bad snap, bad hold and blocked field goals.
I actually enjoy the field goal aspect of the game.

its a good thing that they can hit field goals with ease
if you lead your team on a drive into field goal range, you deserve 3 points
itd be ridiculous to put more worth in the kicker position than their already is
@ OP
to answer your question, that would be better than making it harder to kick FG's, as no one pays to watch the kicker. but i think its fine how it is.

Don't allow for it to count if it has to bounce to go in.
