wow that sucks. hope he heals up soon.
That is a downer. That must be one vicious groin injury. But kickers are funny, that kind of injury if it does not heal properly can affect the kicker for years.

I think that is something like what happened to Nick Folk. He was Bailey-level accurate his first year, got hurt and then was lousy thereafter.

I hate it, but sit him as long as you have to. If scoring 3 points to win a game is consistently that big of a deal, you are not going anywhere in the playoffs.

As much as I don't like having Bailey on the field, I hope they err on the conservative side and do NOT bring him back early. I'm talking like maybe even extra weeks of caution even when he thinks he's ready.

I have been pleasantly surprised by Nugent, and if he keeps this up I feel he will be rewarded with a starting job somewhere.

Wow, I feel like I just got punched in the gut.

Due to the unnecessary hole the team dug itself with the crushing losses to the Rams/Packers, the margin for error is really small, even for a wildcard berth. You've got to think a game will hinge on the kicking game at some point. Let's hope we can continue to win by double digits without the security blanket that is Dan Bailey.

Tell that to Garrett. He is the one who has to consider he can't count on a 50-52 yard FG any more. I has got pretty comfortable with that over the years.

Yup - as much as I think we all appreciate Bailey, you don't quite fully appreciate him until he's no longer there. No Bailey or Zeke over the next month+ sure would change Red's decision making process.
