Given the choice, I think Nugent has more chance of making it. Actually, I think I'd probably just throw the hail mary! They'll stick with Feely until he goofs up...so what DannyMazz says is probably true. Feely’s 55 yarder last week was a career best, whereas Nuge kicks 60 yarders in practice all the time.

At this point I trust Feely more than I trust Nugent. What if we need a 60yrd FG? Feely will give you a chance to make it. Nugent wont. Besides Feely is a Veteran. He's been around longer than Nugent. I dont think nugent will be kicking this season. At this point I trust Feely more than I trust Nugent. What if we need a 60yrd FG?

Cut Nugent now. No one trades for a kicker. We fix the screw up of drafting him in the 2nd round. If feely doesn't work we get another one next year. I love not dreading kickoffs anymore. he should lose his job because he sucks. Cut Nugent now. No one trades for a kicker. We fix the screw up of drafting him in the 2nd round.

Puts Tangini in a tough spot - you activate Nug and cut Feely, they will be second guessed to death if Nug misses a big kick. But, he should not lose his job due to an injury.

I DONT REMEMBER THE GAME BUT HE LEVELED SOMEBODY TRYING TO GET AN ONSIDE KICK. HE'S HOT AND UNTIL HE COOLS OFF HE'S IN.. THE DUDE IS CHISSLED. HES HAD A COUPLE OF TOUCHBACKS THIS YEAR ALSO. NUGENT DOESNT KICK THE BALL TOO FAR. STAY WITH THE HOT MAN!!! BUT FEELY IS AN ATHLETE. I DONT REMEMBER THE GAME BUT HE LEVELED SOMEBODY TRYING TO GET AN ONSIDE KICK.
