Was it short? Wide Left? Wide right? Currently we have no way of knowing.

Modify the animation to have it disappear behind the far crossbar if it was wide to the kicker's right, and and cover the near crossbar if it was wide left. Have it fall short if it doesn't make it far enough, maybe have it underneath the crossbar, covering up part of the shadow. Also, obviously, have it say in the replay (wide left, wide right, short).

Not sure if how the kick misses is actually coded in, but would give Kickers a better idea of why they're missing their field goals (accuracy or power).

Thoughts?

I think short or Left/Right animation is all you really need.

maybe not even make an animation. maybe "so-and-so attempted a 39 yards field goal, and it was wide left!" in the description is sufficient. at least it gives you an idea of what to work on

Watch the shadow, you can see where the ball went.

Well that would be pointless. Whether it is Wide Left or Right the answer is likely Accuracy or Consistency (or probably Heart really even). But if it is short you can add FG Power to the list.

I would think there's more to that play than the shadow being incorrect. If the check for success is made at the rear of the endzone, then the ball position itself is incorrect in the replay as it is clearly wide right.
