-The Carolina game you mentioned in 2014.
-In 2013, the Bengals lost in OT against the Ravens. Nugent missed a 42 yarder in the 2nd quarter of that game, which would have presumably made the OT a nonfactor. If they won that game, the Bengals would have had a first round bye since they would tie NE's 12-4 record, and beat NE that year.
....so yeah, good for about a loss a year for the last three years, and probably cost the Bengals a first round bye twice. The last three years, he has ranked 23rd, 27th, and 23rd in FG %.
According to your logic......
Last year Nugent beat the Steelers by kicking 3 FGs in a 6 point win.
In 2014 he beat the Ravens on opening day by kicking 5 fgs in a 7 pint win and then beat them again six weeks later by kicking 2 FGs in a 3 point win.
