Minnesota Vikings' Ryan Longwell kicking better than ever, and he credits golfer Tiger Woods

At age 34, a kicker isn't supposed to get stronger or more accurate.

But the Vikings' Ryan Longwell is enjoying one of his best seasons. There's more than one reason, but who could have expected Tiger Woods to play a role?

Longwell lives in the same community as Woods near Orlando, Fla. They sometimes work out in the same gym, and Longwell was inspired by Woods.

"He's already the best in the world, but he's trying to get better, so I kind of looked at that," Longwell said. "On top of that, because we are around each other, I get to see how hard he works."

I'm not sure he deserves it.
I would have given it to ATL's Turner for 208 yards rushing.
H emade 2 kicks. I guess they gave it to him for having to endure 3 time outs.

It's NFL "special teams player of the week" for anyone that's wondering why he won it as opposed to other offensive players.

**marstc09** · 12-31-2008, 02:52 PM

It is the seventh time Longwell has been named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week.

He sucks.
