Crazy/Interesting Day in the NFL

[ukfubar]

Vikings do not score an offensive touchdown and only have 6 totals yards in first half yet win 24-21. Eli Manning threw 4 ints. The Vikings had an INT return for TD, kickoff return for TD, and a punt return for td. First time that had every been done in a pro game.

Chicago's 108 yard touchdown. Longest ever in the NFL. San Fran goes for the field goal and it is short. The Chicago player catches the ball in the air and returns in for a touchdown.

I would have liked to have seen more of that Chicago game than just the highlights. It looked like it might have been fun to watch just for the comic value. The wind was so bad that they showed a shot of the football being caught up in the wind before a kick and just rolling like a paper bag on the ground. Then there was a field goal attempt that started out straight, got caught by the wind, and took off to the right like a sparrow. Wound up wide right by about 30 yards! Lots of goofy stuff. The missed field goal run back was classic!
