HOF kickers don't start out as HOF kickers. Give a young kicker a chance and see what they do.

It seems that most understand Nugent is here for the rest of the season. That's when it's expected the list of available accomplished kickers will be evaluated and pursued.


Thanks ...... dude. Add 6 missed field goals, and you have the league leader in missed kicks. Show me where I've missed this revelation. Show me this talented young kicker who needs a chance, and I'd sign him up. Show me where the front office is behind signing a new kicker NOW, and I will toast the move. It just won't happen until the off season unfortunately. That's the reality.

Any other team in the division would've canned the Nuge a long time ago.  Even Hobspin can't polish this turd.

Yet people still think "venting" about it on a MB will either A) make something different happen, or B) make themselves feel better. In truth, it does neither of those things. It simply brings up the misery over and over.
