Let's talk Nugent

[stiletto]

Not seeing much on him. Missed a tough first kick (49 yarder). Did fine the rest of the way. Seemed serviceable so far. I was worried he would miss more but he seemed to have good velocity overall. Mild relief for me.

 

[Mookie]

After his first miss I thought maybe we made a mistake by signing him. He then proved me wrong. Nugent is the man!

 

[CowboyStar88]

Probably the worst conditions he will kick in while here. Not bad

 

[stiletto]

Pretty horrid conditions to kick first time back for sure. I remember Aikman and Brennamen were talking up Rose and Nugent outkicked him the rest of the way and they said nothing.

 

[SportsGuru80]

He started off shaky but pulled it together the rest of the way. Tough weather conditions for sure...

 

[Dale]

Impressive to respond the way he did after missing the first try -- particularly in those conditions.

 

[stiletto]

Agreed. Kickoffs seemed a little short but the ones that were short we covered well and even got a fumble recovery. That was nice. I love getting turnovers like that. Makes me happy.

 

[BoysfanfromCanada]

I'm just glad his extra points went right down the middle. Everything else is bonus beyond 40 yards

 

[revospeed]

His kickoffs were good. Had great hangtime on some of those kicks that allowed the coverage team to get down there and make the play. Also had good accuracy on the kickoffs.

Also was impressed with how he bounced back after the first kick.

 

[Tabascocat]

He did great, especially considering the weather.

 

[thisiscowboyscountry]

First, kicking in those conditions is tough for any kicker. I thought he did a good job today and for most part did better than expected with the weather. I feel pretty comfortable having him kick under 45 yards. Over 50 in 4th and short situations though we may be best going for it.

He did real well, Stiletto. Nice stop-gap for His holiness Bailey

This is it. Amen, Canada.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

He did what I expected. I had high expectations going in. I figured everything under 40 would be money. Everything longer than that would be a concern. Then you see the weather conditions....and you have no idea what to think. He did great today. You can't replace Bailey but this is about as good as you will get.

At this era, I'd say beyond 46

 

[big dog cowboy]

I still think it's cool he is from the In-Laws hometown and I actually got to see him kick in high school.

Back then everyone was saying he was good enough to kick in the NFL.

He was a teammate of Green Bay LB A. J. Hawk.

 

[Zman5]

Good thing is now we don't have to rush Bailey back. Let him heal completely.

 

[Cebrin]

Without him, we'd be closer to 3-4. Hopefully someone takes him for a good steak after the game.

 

[John813]

Was impressed how he rebounded after that first miss, Tough conditions, and first game kicking in quite some time.

FO did a good job bringing him in. Dude played very well all things considered.

 

[Silver N Blue]

When does Bailey get back...there...
