Twice I've been in the red zone 4th-10-DRA16 and DRA18 and each time my team has punted.

1st time I had the orders to kick under 20 years. Assuming 20 yards from the endzone, but punts for a touchback. Negetive 4 yards on the restart.

2nd time I had the orders set for under 30 yards. Still the same touchback outcome.

What am I doing wrong? Should it be 10 for endzone, 20 for redzone and 7 yards for kick place holder?

ie:- Should my orders be set at under 35 or 40 yards instead?

At whatever yard-line you want to kick the field goal at, you need to add 17 yards and that's the distance you kick from. 10 yards for the end zone and 7 yards for the snap.

If you want to attempt a field goal at the 20 yard line and in,(20+17=37) you would need to select to attempt a field goal with 40 yards or less(since you can't pick 37).

Thank you. Would be good if that was in the FAQ.
