Daily blurb
I was driving back from New York City on Sunday afternoon, and since the Giants/Vikings game was postponed, the Giant’s affiliate station was carrying the Bucs/Redskins game. After earlier missing two chip shot FG attempts, Washington kicker Graham Gano lined up for a game tying extra point in the final seconds of regulation as the crowd clearly tensed up. So did the holder, Hunter Smith, as the snap was muffed and Gano never even got a chance to miss this time. I don’t know if that qualifies as compelling radio – but the game did keep me awake on a dreary, rainy drive home. It probably also kept Redskins fans awake all night.

Give the NFL credit for scrambling quickly to resolve the Minnesota roof collapse situation. Fantasy leagues everywhere went into panic mode on Sunday morning – particularly those whose playoff brackets have started. I don’t know what the resolution would have been for the RIFC if the game was not played before the start of week 15. I also figured that was a very unlikely scenario, so I didn’t spend much time fretting over it. With no bye week options between now and the NFL playoffs, they had to find some place to play this game pronto. And they did.

Green Bay probably wishes they had been scheduled to play in Minnesota this weekend.
