Have you ever wondered what it would look like to have an NFL production team analyze the mechanics of a single doink? Well, trade your wonder for 2 minutes of Kevin Harlan and Sam Wyche obsess over the details of Seahawks' kicker Todd Peterson's lone blemish on a day where the visiting Seahawks rolled the home team.
This doink came in the middle of an absolute walloping of the San Francisco 49ers at the hands of their divisional rival Seahawks. In a game decided by a final margin of 34 points, this is what OffTheUpright calls a "moot doink" - had luck broken the other way, the outcome of the game would not have been altered.
Chris Berman, narrating the game's highlights, even points out the apparent insignificance of the moment:
"Doink. It's no good. Why do we show it? We'll tell you in a moment."
