His leg strength worries me and not every playoff game can be in a dome.
On KO's, the Bengals are #1 in starting field position. Average KO is 65 yards, 8th in the league. Will say this though... I always get a little queezy when any team I am backing lines up a 45 yard field goal. While I have seen him miss... I have never seen the piss in my pants look that McManus had monday night. Nugent has made OT kicks in NCAA championship games and 57 yard FG's in NFL playoff games... I would gladly take a 48 yard Nugent FG try, down by 1 with 3 seconds left in SB50... would mean we made it there and had a >75% chance of winning.
