Vikings Kicker Blair Walsh Tweets Support For Patriots Stephen Gostkowski

BOSTON (CBS) -- The brotherhood is strong among NFL kickers.

Blair Walsh, the Minnesota Vikings kicker who missed a potential game-winning, 27-yard field goal in their Divisional Round loss to the Seattle Seahawks a few weeks back, was quick to show some support for Patriots kicker Stephen Gostkowski on Sunday.

Gostkowski missed an extra point in New England's 20-18 loss to the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship, and took all the blame after the game.

Shortly after the game was over, Walsh sent out the following Tweet:

Gostkowski had made 523 straight extra points, and all 60 in his postseason career, before Sunday's miss.
