Watching the highlights on ESPN, check out the wind in Chicago! Never seen field goals blown that far off by the wind.

Wow, wind blows a SF field goal try short, former UTexas star Nathon Vasher 8 yards deep in the end zone decides "What the heck, I'll catch it" and runs it out for a 108 yard touchdown return. Amazing!

It was almost impossible to pass or field punts. Snaps to the holders were even blown off course by the wind. Whole game was like that and it was unpredictable in my face in the South end zone than a minute later on my back. Paper was whipping across the field in no time. When the wind would hit a kick against it the ball would almost stop in mid air. Amazing day.
