Hey is Waynes hurt? Saw Alexander in for him.
He wasn't in on the last series. Maybe he got benched? Someone has to cover Ginn

He missed a couple, but overall very effective.

Waynes was on the sidelines with his helmet off the series before Walsh, err Forbath shanked it.

Looking great so far. Is Waynes injured?

Very important for the Vikings to get some points on the first series. That missed FG is huge.

Because I have been a Vikings fan since I was a kid, I know that this game is not over. 17 pts is not “home free”... The 1st drive of the 2nd half is really important. I hope we can come out and put together a nice, long, painful TD drive.

He's 16th in the league in FG percentage (84.2%) so right in the middle. Sure, I'd like someone better, but it could certainly be worse, and I don't know anyone who was available that was any better. Walsh was 29th in FG percentage (72.4%) this year just for comparison. No clue why the Hawks gave up Hauschka for him.

It's extra points where Forbath is terrible percentage wise though, nearly worst in the league.

Penalties and turnovers killing the Saints but 2nd half likely to be closer unless we can keep wearing down the defense. Love the pressure on Brees.

So he's mediocre to awful depending on how you look at it.

Hot rod! He may be, his leg doesn't seem that strong though. Nice accuracy.
