How far away is the field goal that Peyton and Eli Manning will kick?
One of the common questions with the Kick of Destiny contest centers around how far the field goal attempts are.
Peyton and Eli will both initially attempt a 25-yard field goal. If both kickers miss that first attempt, the ball will be moved 5 yards closer for the next round.
If neither Manning makes a kick in the first two rounds, the contest will move to a third and final round. This last round of kicks would be from 15 yards out.
