Walsh: Pointed at Vikings just for kicks
Seattle Seahawks kicker Blair Walsh took great joy in having success Friday night against his former team that released him last season.
Walsh made a pair of 52-yard field goals in the second half and made gestures toward the Minnesota sideline after each kick. Walsh pointed at the sideline after his first make and walked toward the bench and appeared to say something after the second.
Walsh nearly had three made kicks of beyond 50 yards but a 53-yard attempt in the first half hit the crossbar. Zimmer said he did not see any of Walsh's gestures.

"When they're out there kind of yelling at you and taunting you on kicks it's just I've been in the league a little while, I didn't really like that," Walsh said. "I hope it was in jest because my response was in jest. I could see guys smiling so I hope nobody took it too seriously."
What they still take seriously in Minnesota is Walsh's 27-yard miss against the Seahawks in the closing seconds of a playoff game two years ago that eliminated the Vikings.
