redsbengalsbucks Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Josh Brown has down a very good job, but his consistency has always been lacking. That is why he was setting at home when the Bengals called. We got a good stretch from him, dont think the misses are not still in his bag of tricks. Nugent has proven himself in almost every game (minus the Jets playoff game) since he came, when healthy. I'd feel better with Nugent kicking, Brown scares me every time he sits up to kick.

HoosierCat Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Well, FWIW Nuge didn't practice today. Neither did BJGE. I haven't seen any details on why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 (minus the Jets playoff game) That's what scares me about him. I'm afraid he'll Shayne Graham us again. Brown meanwhile is riding a wave of confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Nugent had no part in the Jets playoff game. That might be what COB means -- it was Shayne Graham. Nugent hasn't really had a moment of miserable failure comparable to that. His only problem has been getting hurt more often than a kicker ever should.

HoosierCat Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Appears tha BJGE's issue was whatever bug has been going around the locker room so no worries. Nugent was listed with a calf so it may have flared back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combatbengal Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I hate Nug kick offs. He rarly places the bal in the end zone. Don't get me wrong, I like the Buckeye but Brown is doing a great job for us now. Why change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walzav29 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Geno Atkins has the sickle-cell trait and that could cause a major problem for us against the Broncos in Denver.Holy crap!!!! Is this true? The Bengals will win Sunday. I have no doubt. They are on a roll, and they owe Baltimore big time. I hated that Monday night loss, and I want to beat the crap out of them. 55-0. Let's get it on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily I relish the fact that I am not perfect. I still have a problem calling a very inconsistent kicker in Brown, CLUTCH. He is the Carlos dunlap of kickers, very good when hot very average when not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Vinatieri has missed 9 field goals in his playoff career.Shayne had some chronic problem that flared up at almost every opportunity he had to make a big kick. I like what Brown has done for us, don't get me wrong. I can't say I am confident about him as a long-term kicker though. His career hasn't been that good.

ArmyBengal Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I wasn't a fan of the Josh Brown signing as well, but he's proven me wrong.If anything, I think his success will keep the Bengals from handing out a long term deal to a kicker anytime soon.I can't say as I would support that move, but when looking at others that need to be wrapped up, a kicker will wait.Back on the topic of the game this Sunday, I just want to see the Bengals attack the Ravens.I want to see them approach the game as if the playoffs are on the line.I want to see them gain additional confidence heading into the playoffs.

It will be a huge confidence builder to get the whol Steeler/Raven thing behind them. I've been getting bashed with it by my non-Bengal fan friends.

HoosierCat Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Allen & Newman questionable for the game for the Bengals. Baltimore listing Boldin, Doss, Jones, Leach, McClellan, Ngata and Yanda as questionable. Something tells me we should expect more than a few Ravens backups to get significant time.

combatbengal Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Once again, we have no idea who we'll face in the first round of the playoffs but I sure hope it's not the Ravens. Don't want to play them two weeks in a row. However, who ever it is, I hope we come to play and finally get that first playoff win under Lewis watch!!On another topic and don't get me wrong, I'm very happy/pleased with Dalton. However, I was hoping that the Bengals would have selected Russell Wilson. He's doing pretty good for the Seabirds!! I wouldn't mind seeing the Bengals vs the Seabirds in the Super Bowl. But then I'd also love to see the Bengal play and finally beat the 49ers in the big game too.. Yea I know, I'm getting a head of myself. Just excited!! Who dey!!
