Re: Will this team mail it for the rest of the season?
I would like to know if Lindell's FG kick would have been good from 51 yards out as well. It's not like he was kicking an impossible shot before the stupid penalty. It's definitely frustrating for something that simple to affect us but that mistake was not the single reason we lost today. As for "mailing it in", it's rare for professional athletes to just go through the motions even after playof hopes have evaporated. Let's hope some actually do stop giving it the effort their contracts expect so that we can replace them with people that don't regard their level of participation based on the win/loss record. As Coach Herm Edwards famously said, "You play to win the game".
