The NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is a sort of polarizing figure among the league fans. He has some fans in the community and some really hate him. But something happened during the wildcard playoff game between the Minnesota Vikings and the New York Giants that took everyone by surprise. The commissioner’s knee-jerk reaction to a cuss word has left the fans speechless.

The Giants overcame the Vikings away in Minnesota to make it through to the divisional round.

Roger Goodell reacts to a cuss word

The NFL commissioner Roger Goodell watched the game between the Vikings and the Giants at the US Bank Stadium. But it is the after-game scenes that are in question here. A fan from the stands threw a cuss word at the commissioner. To be more precise, an actual The F-Word.

“F**k you Roger,” a fan shouted in the direction of Goodell after calling out his name several times.

What Goodell did next stunned the NFL world. He appeared to mock the Vikings fans’ famous ‘Skol’ celebration on the day the home franchise crashed out of the postseason. While some fans refuse to believe it was actually Goodell while others have criticized the heckler. This fan can’t believe that someone from the fans had the time to shout at the NFL commissioner.

Another fan had three questions in mind regarding the whole scenario.

A fan seems to have a tinge of sarcasm in their tone.

But this fan doesn’t believe that the person is Goodell himself.

And this fan doesn’t believe that the heckler would sue the NFL commissioner.

Another fan gave the reason for the heckler’s frustration.

The Vikings were the favorites going into the game, so the fan might be frustrated due to the loss. But the Giants did what they were supposed to do. Get a win and make it to the divisional round.

A close encounter 

The Vikings QB Kirk Cousins struggled to get his team over the line in a game that never went over a one-score difference. Both teams were in the game right till the end. And it was the home team that went out with the Giants winning 31-24.

Cousins threw 273 passing yards in 31 completions. The QB scored two touchdowns through the air while the Giants’ defense couldn’t intercept any passes. But he did get away with a sack with a roughing the passer call.

The Giants will take on the Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional round. Can they cause another upset in that game?
