Someone posted this opposite thread earlier in the preseason...You know what? He won this game today!!

WHODEY!!

Damn near lost it but yes he one at the end

Damn, if Nugent has already achieved his quota, what next??

Who knows: He might one two

This is funny. In addition to the thread about Margus Hunt's performance, I was equally curious to see if there was going to be a thread exactly like this. I thought for all the world that the thread in the preseason about Nuge losing games for us this year was going to play out in the very first game. But talk about REDEMPTION!!! I'd rather him miss one earlier in the game and clutch it in the end! I almost punched a hole in my ceiling jumping up off the couch when that last kick was dead center LOL! WHO DEY!!!

Bengals need new Kicker next draft...

When the game is on the line he kicks 91 percent #clutch

He has 100% accuracy in the playoffs as well.

I believe the stat that matters most on keeping Nugent is 25/26 in 4th quarter and OT in his career

Those are very impressive numbers.  And a few of those kicks I can remember in recent history were not 'chip shots'.  That being said, I wouldn't be opposed to signing a CFA after the draft to check out some new blood back there, you know, actually have a real kicker competition.  I can't say I'd be in favor of using a draft pick on a kicker, but certainly make an aggressive run at one or two of the top rated kickers that don't get drafted and see what shakes loose

I understand your point, I was just trying to give some factual context to why Nugent has remained our kicker over the period of time

Until he misses the next one, then many here will be wanting to hang him and set him on fire in effigy!
