Let’s smoke commanders but kick 5 FGs. One of them from 50+… This man is feeling it. He missed his first attempt and afterwards instead of getting in an immediate funk he picked himself up and doubled down on his practice and hard work pays off. Any ideas how old he is. Cause I am paying this man. I need to know how long. He needs a record breaking attempt. He has hit a few that looked like it would travel the distance…

It should be noted that Gary Anderson went on to miss a kick that year in the NFC Championship Game that cost the Vikings a win and sent the Falcons to the Super Bowl.
Ouch....but I've thought more than once, that his first miss will cost us a game. I hope he misses when it doesn't matter.

When you consider that number of 50-plus-yarders, that's pretty amazing. I know what kickers do one season means nothing the next year, but Aubrey's really just at the start of his kicking career and already doing this.

How long has it been since the Vikings won a Super Bowl?

I wanted Aubrey brought in, along with the other USFL kicker, who was from Michigan, but I thought we had a better shot at Aubrey since he was from Texas. When we didn't bring in the other kicker, I wanted to bring Maher back to compete with Aubrey instead of Vizcaino.

The reports from Oxnard didn't bother me because the conditions there are tough for kickers.
