10 of 10 from 40-49 yards
8 of 13 from 50+

I see this as almost a lateral move for us, Riley was better from inside 40yds, 18 of 19 - while McManus was 10 of 13 from inside 40yds (I think inside 40yds should be automatic, not sure I like our new kicker missing 3 of those kicks last year).  Riley had a slightly better % from 50+ making 2 of 3, although we know McManus has the stronger leg and Doug didn't seem to have faith in Riley attempting long FGs.  I'm not sure the impact the new kickoff rules will have this season - would Riley kicking off to the 10 or 15 yard line end up being a fair catch and starting at the 25? Would that balance out the fact that McManus can drive the ball to the back of the end zone on kickoffs?  Guess we'll see....
