It has been 8 years since Hartley hit over 82 perecnt of his FGs and he did not even play lasy year.
Is this a joke post?
The Steelers singing of Bosewell was just pure luck. He had been cut by two other teams in '14 and '15 and was the Steelers FOURTH kicker in '15 when they signed him off the street in October. There was no way any team would have thought there was any chance he could have made their roster,
Forbath has a higher career FG% than Nugent. Both overall and on 50+ yarders.
Hartley has hit 75% of his 50+ yard tries, has only missed 1 XP for his career and has a higher overall FG% than Nuge. When we signed Nuge, he had been cut by 2 teams in the past year, and had played 7 games the previous 2 years.
Was Boswell not available last year? Is he not better than Nuge? Ok then. Like I was saying, upgrades have almost always been available at some point every year. Are you ok with the fact that good competition hasn't even been brought in at any point during Nuge's 7 year tenure?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
