Thrill of victory for Cowboys; agony of defeat for Vikings

The Dallas Cowboys felt the pain of losing a game in the final seconds in Week 1 when they fell to Tampa Bay.

On Sunday, the Cowboys sent out Greg Zuerlein for a 56-yard field goal with 4 seconds left at SoFi Stadium against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Greg the Leg as he is known drilled the kick and Dallas left LA with a 20-17 victory and a 1-1 record.

That was the good news for a kicker in the late window. The news was not as good for the Minnesota Vikings and Greg Joseph.

Watch as the Viking kicker has a chance to win it but misses and Minnesota falls to 0-2 with its 34-33 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in the desert.

The kicks by both guys named Greg happened within a minute of each other and left one team with the sweet taste of victory and the other with the bitter flavor of defeat.
