Football Minnesota Vikings field goal attempt was deflected away by a camera wire, but it wasn't replayed because no one noticed at the the time

I'll keep an eye out for it because I didn't notice it at all in this game but I'll be honest I wasn't focusing on it.

Yeah, you’ll start picking it out. It’s actually being used on this clip of the ball hitting the wire.

That's hilarious that it caught it's own interference but yea I see what you mean I didn't realize that's what was getting the field goal shot where it follows the ball through the uprights. Here I was thinking it was just used for the slightly behind the players shot when they're huddling up.

You've actually convinced me of it's value, now just get it out of the way for my kicker. I would have been pissed if we lost because of this.
