i have a feeling that our season will end on a missed kick like it did against the Steelers a few years ago. For this exact reason, we drafted Nugent....ironic **knocks on wood**
Agreed. Granted there was NO wind but I say let's stick with Feely regardless of Nugent's injury status from here on out.
I don't trust Nugent at all. Inside the 40, outside the 40, wherever. He also doesn't help the team in field position with his short kickoffs.
Yet you trust Feely? Who has been terrible before today? And hasn't been better at kickoffs either? Nugent has been a pretty good kicker for us, he is not the best kicker in the league but he has been pretty consistent & he is better then Feely.
I think we can agree, they both suck--at least for a team vying for the playoffs. If we go into the playoffs with nugent and feely, we will eventually lose due to whichever one is playing by missing FG(s) and/or XP(s). It's basically a given. Even down the stretch we can get beat out of the post-season by this glaring weakness. What the f**k are we going to do?
It's unbelievable that people think Nugent sucks. It really is. It's based on nothing but watching him miss early season kicks too...cause statistically he's a pretty good kicker.
it's not good to have two kickers on the same team. remember that college back up who stabbed the starting kicker in his kicking leg? kickers are bitches.
Sadly, they both suck. Feeley is getting the job done right now though, so I'd stick with him. Either way, we need to look at drafting a kicker after this year.
Ohhhh, all ya had to say was the Motor City Madman:up:...last I heard, he was next in line to take over for Millen.
