Post-Miracle Thoughts & Take-Aways

I’m not sure how many times I’ve re-watched the Minneapolis Miracle. Pretty sure a lot more times than Blair Walsh’s missed FG. Or Gary Anderson’s. Or Favre’s interception. Or Drew Pearson’s push-off. Put together. I’ve looked at all the write-ups and newspaper headlines about that play, to the point where I’m not sure I could even remember anything else that happened in yesterday’s divisional round game against the Saints.

So I went back to take a look, and have some thoughts and take-aways from yesterday’s game.
