Everyone was stunned when they saw the dramatic finale to the Saints-Vikings game-winning touchdown. Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen was especially shocked at what went down. We got a glimpse at how excited he was during the postgame interview, but now we can see his reaction as it all went down.
Poor dude doesn’t even know what to do! That’s how excited he is. He maintains the same incredulous expression the entire time and eventually figures out that the best thing to do is hug those around him. But that entire time, his facial expression stays the same.
Even as Linval Joseph is hugging him, there’s no real reaction from Griffen. He’s just going with the flow, and it looks like he’s mostly in his head, trying to process that the team is one step close to making the Super Bowl — in its home stadium, no less!
But you can’t blame him. That play was incredible. Griffen said it best in his postgame interview. “I’m happy. I was sad. Now I’m like — wow.”
Same, Everson. Same.
