Did They Miss A Penalty?

Were the Vikings hosed out of a trip to the Super Bowl? Well, broadly speaking, what's done is done, but I'm gonna take the opportunity to reiterate my dislike for the pro rules of overtime. Ending a whole season on a measly kicked field goal is anti-climactic and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, because it's just so blah. The college game, for all it's faults at least lets both teams' offenses have a shot at the end zone. It just seems fairer to me, somehow.

Of course, the counter-argument to that is this: if you don't want your season ending on a field goal, play some damn defense.
