VABills Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 We hear that Jets PK Mike Nugent had a terrible warm-up prior to the Week 1 game at Tennessee, and that was weighing on his mind as he missed a point-after kick and two chip-shot field goals. While the Jets aren't looking to replace the 2005 second-round pick, they also are keeping their options open, bringing in Paul Edinger, Owen Pochman and Tyler Jones for tryouts. Word is the tryouts were intended to be a wake-up call for Nugent, who was handed the job in the first days of training camp. He responded positively in Week 2, making both PATs and his only FG try. Is he already on the outs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricojes Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 He's okay. Tell me again how many probowls has he been to? 779600[/snapback] 1...But considering that only one punter makes it from the AFC, that's not bad for his 5 year career.

stuckincincy Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 He's okay. Tell me again how many probowls has he been to? 779600[/snapback] So? They only pick 2... Moorman *seems* to help this team defend a longer field. Unless I am mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 He's okay. Tell me again how many probowls has he been to? 779600[/snapback] I guess judging Moormans performance by # of pro-bowls is unfair to him. Punters who usually have the highest gross average go to the pro-bowl. All other stats like # of times pinned inside the 20, inside the 10 etc is ignored. Shane Lechler who has been an outstanding punter and the one who usually goes to the pro-bowl plays in the confines of the Oakland stadium where the weather is not as wretched as in RWS during Nov/Dec. However Probowl voters don't take that aspect into consideration, especially considering that they are voting for a Punter, not the QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me again how's Lindell doing? 779592[/snapback] I was one who wanted Nugent, and I still have no explanation for how Lindell turned himself around. In 2004, he was 1/3 from 40+ with an attempted long of 43. Since then, he hasn't missed from beyond 50. Steriods? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
