Is it me or have the Vikings been cursed at kicking FGs and PATs over the past few years - especially since Walsh. I just can’t take it anymore.
It’s miss after miss after miss after miss. Someone explain it to me because I can’t figure it out.
Honestly it’s to the point that I am more shocked when they make a kick than when they miss one. I can’t even watch when they line up for a FG anymore.
Vikings Kicker Curse
Re: Vikings Kicker Curse
I think there are a lot of teams that could say that, particularly this season.
Not all that counts can be counted. Not all that can be counted counts.

Re: Vikings Kicker Curse
I put the mush on em by attending the game in 98. Now kicking woes and choking in the NFC Championship game are their bread and butter. Blame me. I can take it, I have zero emotional investment in what happens on the field unless money is involved. I will be the scape goat.

No, you're correct. It seems to me that the Vikings and Chargers have kicking problems almost every season.

Re: Vikings Kicker Curse
I am with you on this... I have Bailey and have been stubbornly not dropping him thinking he’s going to be consistent. Then the Vikings Kicker curse reared it’s head again and he’s missed a bunch of kicks. Now all the good kickers are taken and I’m almost stuck riding him into the playoffs... not good.slaughterrt wrote: ↑Sun Dec 02, 2018 2:46 pm Is it me or have the Vikings been cursed at kicking FGs and PATs over the past few years - especially since Walsh.

Since Daniel Carlson joined the Raiders, he's 9/10 on FGs and 11/11 on XPs. Was 1/4 on FGs with the Vikes.
