Doug, yes I remember talking about that with you in Argentina. But for real, let’s get some ganglia of Baursuchids and see what comes of it? Its testable!

This is amazing! While studying the skull of some terrestrial crocs, I noticed that there is a small groove that leads into a depression that they have in a smooth depression beside the nostrils. This groove come from inside the nasal passage, and has a course similar to maxillary branch of the trigeminal nerve. Obviously the modern crocodiles do not have whiskers, but, a little serious and a bit of joke, I mentioned this to my friends paleontologists, and some are illustrators, such as Felipe Elias, who like the possibility, and illustrated it: http://felipe-elias-portfolio.blogspot.com.br/2010/11/baurusuchus-pachecoi-2010.html

Of course we have no evidence of filamentous structures among the crocodylomorphs, but this depression on the nostril, and the associated groove, suggest that there is some richly innervated soft tissue there, and a sensory function is not impossible, Your paper point precisely on it!

Condors are extremely well endowed that way.
