Nugent: A Case of Detrimental Loyalty?

He's very blunt in saying the punting unit has to do a better job, but when asked about Nugent...he makes excuses, saying the first miss was a "bad snap" and the second was because it was "windy". When asked about sticking with Nugent, he says "we'll help him out".

While both excuses for Nugent's misses are technically true, he is paid to make those kicks. I don't understand his reluctance to call out Nugent, while having no issue saying the punt team need to do better. 

I guess I just find the extreme loyalty to Nugent concerning. 

I think the extreme loyalty flows down from Mike Brown.
Brown retains sub par coaches years past their effectiveness-that hinders a head coach and doesn't develop incoming talent.
As long as TV money keeps coming in and butts are in the stadium, everything is fine with mb.
