Flap, the next: Vikings turn the next Joseph

Creating a Field Goal from 37 yards is not one of the most outlined tasks in the NFL. Vikings Joseph Greg Joseph has not made this task on Sunday (local time) at him: in immense exciting duel with the Arizona Cardinals in Glendale, the professional has targeted the professional at the end of the clock in the fourth quarter - and so 36: 34 missed. Instead, Minneapolis lost 33:34.

So far so good ...

But what made the whole thing even more dramatic: In recent years, that s what the Vikings has probably happened so often that in social networks under football fans has already become a veritable Evergreen from Mock and Hohn for the NFC North Team. With a new stanza, which now includes Joseph Joseph. In recent years, Josephs like Gary Anderson (decisive miscalcilation in the NFC Championship Game 1999), Kai Forbath, Dan Bailey, Blair Walsh (2015/16 a Field Goal against the Seattle Seahawks in the Play-Off-Overtime besides as well as In order to prevent departure) and Daniel Carlson (2018 against the Packers three of three Field goals verbally tried, two of them in the Overtime) tried - and are often failed in crucial moments.

Quarterback cousins ​​supports his Joseph

And as with the others actually known for safe shots, there had been much fashion this season, three of three field-goal attempts, he had turned down to date - every single one by the way from at least 50 yards. A given extra point in the guest match in Glendale in this Week 2 was still to cope, but not the crucial thing from feasible 37 yards.

And now? Threatens in a series of failed Vikes Josephs, which either directly or shortly the termination into the house is snowed, the next immediate dismissal? Not, if one gives the words of Minnesotas Quarterback Kirk Cousins ​​over the 27-year-old Joseph: He knows that we are now for him. He is a strong player who made a good job for us in these two games Has.

And also coach Mike Zimmer (since 2014 Head Coach of the Vikes), known for his bang-hard gait, makes his only in the training camp after good performances to the starter supported protégling still hope - even if the statement holds certain interpretation margin in parat: I have totally Safe felt at the kick. Although I knew he had previously awarded an extra point, but he has been well kicked. Besides, we were in the hall (covered stadium at the Cardinals; Note d. Red.), The artificial turf was perfect , So I thought that s a simple kick. He just has to work to become more constant.
