It got me thinking when the announcer said the last time Vanderjagt missed two FGs in a game was vs Dallas back in 2002 in Texas Stadium.

From that right hash mark the crown of the Texas Stadium field tilts strongly to the right, the same direction all of Vandy's kicks are missing. I wonder if he's practiced at Texas Stadium or if he's been practicing from a level field?

Brett Favre had this problem playing in Irving as his deep out passes would sail high because he failed to adjust.

The Crown is a lot less than it once was after Dallas put in the field turf. Vandy just flat out missed the kicks and some how needs to get it together.

Vandy did not play in Texas Stadium in 2002. That game was played in Indy.

I agree he needs to step up.

This is correct, remember this was Peytons first game at Texas Stadium.
