He also broke down Mike Nugent's technique and explained why he's inconsistent; basically, his posture changes as he makes the kick much like a golfer who stands up through impact and pushes the ball dead right. Then my kicker friend told me why Justin Tucker makes everything. He has perfect technique.
Preach it brother! :andy:
I don't know if you'll reach everyone here though, because somebody here will tell you Nuge was 2-3 from 50+ last year in hopes to persuade you that he's actually a good kicker/or there is no one else available on the face of the planet can do a better job. Then they'll move on to why Marvin has to stay as well. A good portion of the fanbase is willing to accept mediocrity and that is why we haven't even won a playoff game in 25 years, much less even sniffed a Super Bowl. No accountability from Mike Brown or Marvin Lewis and the fans refuse to make them pay for it.
14 years people. Imagine if Belicheck went even 5 years? They'd have his ass for sure up there in New England.
