Vikings kicker shanks late 'chip shot' to hand wild-card win to Seattle

Kicker Blair Walsh shanked a 27-yard field goal in the dying seconds after holder Jeff Locke could not spin the ball to get the laces turned out, handing the Seattle Seahawks a 10-9 victory on Sunday in their NFC wild-card playoff game.
