For his career he is 10-14 on field goals, which translates to 71%. Nugent on the other hand is an 81% kicker on his career and made field goals last season at an 82% clip. Nugent has struggled this preseason, this is true, but there was never a chance zach hocker made this team as our kicker. I think this is yet another example of be careful what you wish for and the grass isn't always greener.

It's not about me wanting Hocker, it's about me not wanting Nugent and the Bengals refusing to actually give him any real competition for the job.

You can say grass isn't always greener, but the last three years Nugent finished 23rd, 27th, and 23rd in FG%. The grass can't get significantly browner.
