Seahawks at Vikings - NFC Wild Card Game

[scout]

It's really more of a mental distraction for the kicker to see that flash of white during his approach, like shouting at a golfer as he starts his swing.

Note: Shouting at a golfer at the start of a swing is a non-issue. Beginning the shout (or camera clicking) as the club begins its descent is the issue.

Believe this or not but, I left the room so as not to see the miss. I guess I knew it too. Poor kicker.

heh heh....I changed the channel!...that feeling when you switch back and just SEE the Viking players post kick...I was like...C'MON MAN!

He is a first team All Pro returner. You are telling me that that is a system-specific accomplishment and wouldn't translate to the Patriots return game?

You want to spend a second round pick on a kick returner? Please tell me more.

Your comment was stupid. Let it go.

It's a fact. You see it all the time. Teams that aren't used to winning and don't have that winning mindset, have a hard time closing out big games. Vikings are like the Bengals. 3 or 4 guys shot themselves in the foot at different moments, late in the game that cost their team a victory.

#MIN K Blaire Walsh on missing game-winning 27 yard FG: "I didn't come through for us, and that hurts." Took complete ownership for loss

Couldn't blame anyone but himself for that, just an inexcusable miss.

I'm with you too! I have no problem with Arizona or Seattle winning the Superbowl New England isn't in it! I'll never under any circumstances root for Denver & Mr. HGH to win anything!

if manning's in the SB, i will avoid all sports shows for the lead up. will be the biggest ballwash fest ever.

So you're going to leave out his second year huh? Or how about right after the draft? Everybody remembers all the members going crazy that Bill passed up on Dez Bryant for him. Fact is that you're not a psychic and getting your panties in a bunch after one year is completely and utterly ******ed.

Passing on Lockett for Richards was as moronic as your posts, as evidenced by the fact that Lockett was a first team all pro returner this season, the team's prolific struggles in the return game this season, Richards relatively minor impact, and the fact that the team felt the need to trade a future draft pick for a similar player during the season.

If you want to play the long game while beating off in your Bill Belichick shrine, be my guest. I am not playing the what-if game with any other pick besides this one. It was a single mistake among many successes, but it was very clearly a mistake and, yes, I can say that with certainty after just a single season.

Sorry to see Minnesota lose this one. I think they played better and deserved the win. Seattle is soooooooooo ****ing lucky. Wild Card teams are 3-0. Will it continue?

Nonsense.

Adam Vinatieri missed 2 FGs in the SB against the Panthers, one being a miss from 31 and one being a blocked 36 yard attempt. Using your absolutely ridiculous logic, the Patriots therefore didn't have a winning mindset in that game.

I dont mind the Seahawks, they are a great football team like the Patriots but damn they are so lucky haha

Great teams get lucky. See Cundiff, Billy.

Viking fans and Bengal fans should form one big support group after this weekend's games.

they were not in crunch time though.

Weird weekend: From a fan standpoint, a 30-0 beatdown is the least embarrassing loss so far.

Wild Card teams the only ones that are playing this weekend lol

You mean road teams?

 

[Deus Irae]

That's irrelevant to the discussion of a total team's mindset. Again, you made a ridiculous assertion. A missed field goal is not proof of an entire team's mindset.

Just let it go.

No I mean teams that made it in as wild cards not the 3 or 4 seed teams that are division winners. Should have been clearer.

 

[Patsrock]

It's the Super Bowl, it's 60 mins of crunch time. He makes those two kicks and Pats don't need him at the end to kick the winner.

Walsh - from one direction to wrong direction. lol
