The immaculate reception PART TWO.
The last 10 seconds of the Viking Saints game unbelievable.
- Thread starter bullmarket
- Start date
Did Williams or Moore learn tackling 101 under Mike ? (I'm ecstatic the Vikes got the win !)
And what's with the mandatory extra point after time expired ? To appease the bookies ?
Rookie made a big-time rookie mistake. Williams makes a huge INT in the third to get NO back in the game and then makes the rookiest of rookie mistakes. Lowered his eyes and whiffed on the tackle instead of wrapping up the WR. Even if the caught the ball, time would have run out and NO wins. Guarantee you he'll never do that again. Gotta hand it to him, he handled the reporters well when asked about the play, but he was really hurting. And as a Falcons fan, I love seeing NO take it in the shorts. 
If Williams would have hit Diggs, he should have been o/b with 3 or 4 seconds left & Minny (probably) kicks the winning field goal. The way it worked out was beautiful. Hope they win it all for Bud Grant & bury the Minny goat finally.
Interesting how their superb Defense almost cost them a Divisional Championship...

After the Rose Bowl hurt I was finished with football. I had no team to root for. That is until someone reminded me that Keenum (because of UH) and Bradford were still in the playoffs. I almost turned off the TV when NO scored. The TD was exuberating. That was fun. But the Rose Bowl pain has returned. It's going to be a while to get over the bowl hurt.
As a long time Vikings fan, I cannot describe how sweet that was. Also being an OU fan, I am so used to disapointment that before that play I wasn't mad, I expected them to give it away at some point. After the game was over, I worried we just spent all of our mojo currency because there are games left. The only hope I have is the Miracle on Ice was not for the gold and the Red Sox's 2004 miracle comeback to the Yankees was not the World Series. It could, maybe, possibly be our time but I'm not holding my breath.
Well stated, hOUston...But for Me, and Mine, I'm not sure we will EVER get over that one...
On the Brighter Side, Good to see this article on OUr Sam...Sooner Extraordinaire!
