49ers kicker who led the NFL with 136 points in 1989

Mike Cofer was born February 19, 1964, in Columbia, South Carolina, kicked at North Carolina State, and entered the NFL undrafted, playing his first two games for the New Orleans Saints in 1987. San Francisco signed him for 1988, and he made 27 of 38 field goals and 40 of 41 extra points for the Super Bowl XXIII champions.

In 1989 he converted 29 of 36 field goals and 49 of 51 extra points for 136 points, led the NFL in scoring, was named first-team All-Pro, and kicked for a second title in Super Bowl XXIV. He made 24 of 36 in 1990 and then 14 of 28 in 1991, and Madden NFL 92 listed him at a calculated 56 for that 1991 season.

He hit 18 of 27 field goals in 1992 and 16 of 26 in 1993. Madden NFL 93 put him at a calculated 36 for the 1992 season, and Madden NFL 94 at a calculated 39 for 1993. San Francisco released him after 1993, and he closed his career with four games for the Indianapolis Colts in 1995. Across eight seasons and 102 games with New Orleans, San Francisco and Indianapolis, Cofer made 133 of 201 field goals and 303 of 312 extra points for 702 career points.

How to read these: Each row is the player’s rating in that year’s Madden, listed by the NFL season it covers (Madden NFL 2001 = the 2000 season). Madden sets its ratings before the season is played, so they reflect the previous season’s performance - a player’s breakout year tends to show up as a jump in the following year’s game.
About the starred rows*: Several early Madden releases rated players on a 1-15 scale, as printed in the game manuals, rather than the modern 0-99. We store those ratings converted to 0-99 (each manual point is about 6.6) so you can compare players across eras at a glance - use the 0-99 / 1-15 toggle above the table to see the original numbers on those seasons. EA didn’t publish an overall rating in those games, so the OVR* values for those years are our own calculation, the average of the player’s two best ratings.
Note: Some Madden releases tracked fewer attributes than others. Cells shown as - were not published by EA that year.
