Minnesota Vikings players were FURIOUS when Blair Walsh missed 27-yard field goal 

I think I’ve already replayed the “whathefuk??… thefukitisnt!!” section about 20 times and laughed out loud every time” 😅

I mean, this is the same kicker that made 3 other field goals including a 50 yarder earlier in the game. Not saying they shouldn't have been mad, but damn that offense with AD should've been able to grind out one touchdown you'd think

Holy shit Phil! I was just east of the 50 yrd line 3rd row behind the Vikes bench and everybody was hugging and hi 5in and my gf at the time was grabbing my shoulders like "he's gonna do it we're gonna win".. And I got that same feeling..... You had to hold your breath to see that day it was so f-n cold.. But I didn't look I knew he would miss. Such is the fate of a Viking fan. We sat there in the stands until everyone went in the tunnel and I was the guy that yelled (raging scream)"F-u Walsh" as he ran into the tunnel. A bunch of coaches and trainers looked at me and could see the anguish in my face, I could tell they understood. Needless to say I had my son kick a 27 yarder 2 years ago at training camp in eagan barefoot just to reinforce my feelings about that day. He was a kicker/punter at irondale now in college at Mankato for civil engineering.

Toughest SOB. Bud Grant in a polo shirt that day…😳

I'm fuckin addicted to this segment... keep up the great work guys

Went to the gopher game against Nebraska that year in 2015 on that end zone. I knew he was gonna miss it because of the wind in that open section and Blair being more of a right hash kicker. Still hurts 💀

God I would've love to have heard Everson during that😂

My exact words were “we have to make the kick first..” That one hurt almost as bad as 98, but not quite.. I was too damn drunk for the Favre NFC Championship game to affect me..

I will never forget being at that game. The air temp high was -6F. It was the 2nd season of being at outdoor games and I finally got my layers dialed in so I could last a whole game in cold weather. We stood the entire game because as soon as you sat down you got cold and you weren’t going to warm up. I remember walking around the concourse of TCF at halftime seeing the Seahawks fans who thought their fancy North Face jackets were going to keep them warm and laughing at their misery. Somewhere in my house I have a certificate from the Vikings for attending the coldest game in Vikings history. I was so anxious to get to warmth by the end of the game I don’t think I was even that mad. I do have a theory on why Walsh missed. On one of his earlier makes the refs let a Seahawk come off the edge a little early and he nearly blocked the kick. I think Walsh was subconsciously thinking about that and hurried his kick which made him yank it left. Just a theory. No way I could do another game outdoors like that.

Boone’s “I got to watch it in the spring” was a little ominous after the previous story about spring training featuring endless film reviews / post-mortems of the previous year’s failures.

Awesome show guys love it !!!

Same thing happened to me. A fellow Viking diehard friend of mine sent me a celebration text before the kick. And I'm like dude you should know better than to celebrate a win before a Viking kick! Now we are screwed! I felt the exact same thing as Phil and sure enough.......

WTF!!!! That's the best Rick story I have ever heard. I am still pissed at Blair, that was a team that had a real shot to making a deep run.

I remember not getting a good night's sleep after that game.

😂 this is great. We need to be able to laugh at some of these moments, bc what a gut punch that was

I was watching this game with my dad. Watched us get down the field with that huge throw and catch/run from Kyle Rudolph. I wish they'd go for the gd tuddy. As soon as they line up for the FG, my dad says "they got this. Nice win!" I just stare at him and start "Wtf you just say that for, you effing jinxed it!!!" Dad is like "Nah, 27 yards, it's a chippy!" He's not actually a Vikings fan, generally only watches college, whereas I've watched Vikings my whole life. He doesn't understand what he did. Blair whiffs. My dad's jaw drops in disbelief. We don't watch Vikings games together anymore lol!

This was a great session to see these 2 ex Vikings commenting on KICKERS! God I love Boone and not in a weird way ! SKOL Vikings till Valhalla!

I'm still not ready to forgive 😂 i was rick x10 after that

Why can i perfectly imagine Rick Spielmans voice. Was a great impression

So painful... my dad swears to this day that team gets to the super bowl if he makes that kick

I had the exact same feeling watching Walsh's 27 yarder. Before the snap my thought was "He's gonna miss."

Yes. That was the year Aaron Rodgers completed a hail Mary to send the game into overtime against the Cardinals, but it was also the game Larry Fitzgerald went beast mode in overtime.

Damn it I really needed this good dose of toxic locker room culture, lmao

John Madden always said kickers are “special people”.

I bought his jersey after his rookie year, figuring kickers last forever. Never had bought a jersey before.. and still haven't bought one since. But I promise, the jersey was on flames before you warmed up.

I was in Arizona for week one a few years back when Greg Joesph lined up for a chip shot that would have been a walk off. My 13 year old son was already celebrating. I told him “son this shit is far from a guarantee”. 30 seconds later I turned to him and said “ welcome to Vikinghood son” as he stared in disbelief.

As Blair lined up for the kick, my 12 year old son yelled, "we're gonna beat the Seahawks," to which I jumped up and yelled, "take it back, quick, for the love of God, take it back. " "What dad?" Wide left... "what just happened Dad?" "We lost." He's older and wiser now. SKOL!!!!

I'm guessing this is why Walsh was never the same.

Small correction, though it doesn't really matter, but Minnesota did not beat Arizona that year in the regular season.

I never kicked a legit field goal in my life. I'd be there early and leave late.

i have a new question, when we talk about messed up fingers of oline men. Is it possible today to prevent them?

Question on PD today Judd ranted about this. Do players know what will happen to them on cut down day ?

I was working with no worries about the kick. I was like good they’re going to line this up and kick the game winner. Then it hit like a ton of bricks inside my head. “He might miss” and sure 💩 he did. I looked as soon as he kicked it and I thought I just watched Saturday night live and someone is f@cking playing a joke on my eye balls. Ya I couldn’t believe it. That team I thought was poised to make a run after that game. That team was solid. Always in it and was never embarrassed. That was a good team, and it was a shame to see it go to waste.

My niece who is a Eagles fan said uncle Ray I had a bad feeling before Walsh kicked it !

Bud Grant bless his soul at 88 years old goes on the field in a polo shirt at minus 6 degrees

Sometimes the football holder is the problem

My ex mother in law said, roughly 30 seconds before the shank, and I quote, "well you know he's gonna miss". Literally everyone got angry, then right as we were realizing she was probably right, he missed and rekindled the anger

Off season idea. Go find a field and have Alex fire field goals from every game losing spot thats happened in the NFL

All Vikings fans knew Walsh was going to miss that kick.

As a Seahawks fan, I didn’t feel any rage at all lol.

So the mental dude freaked out in the lockerroom.

Such a terrible moment, that team had a chance to make a run. Add it to the list of MN Vikings fans misery 😅 😢

I was at the cardinals game, we in fact did not win😔

He completely shanked that kick.

Dumb football question, how much did you talk to the GM? During negotiation, During a season, like how involved are GM's in the team besides the business side of things?

Funny. I seem to remember the Oline getting manhandled that game and Walsh being the only one to score points. Careful about throwing stones there Alex.

Does Boone own a shirt WITH sleeves? 😂

Well that’s disappointing. Dude deserved better from his teammates after being the only one to score all game. Laces were backwards. It’s -3. He’s kicking a brick. Score a touchdown or get over it. Also you didn’t beat the cardinals earlier that year.

The team shouldn't have put Walsh in that position.

Kickers win more games than they lose by far...however when they fail...its Scott Norwood for life.🤷

I’d be more furious if the offense scored zero points in a game. Nobody on that 2015 offense had the right to talk ANY shit on Blair.

Nah the fault is with the offense who couldn’t score a touchdown

these redundant excerpts should be titled “Excerpt: …“ or something so users don’t have to figure out whether they’re repeats

Maybe your offense should score some points too you clowns lol 😂 the fact you lost that game falls solely on the offense shoulders

Daniel Carlson.........threw the game for $. thats why "they" call it football.

The fuck it isn't!

like you guys never missed a block or missed tackle
