By now we should know better than to be surprised by anything Adam Vinatieri does. For nine years he has kicked for the New England Patriots. In snow. In muck. In frigid temperatures. In rain.
He has won two Super Bowl championships with last-second field goals, a 48-yarder as time expired in New England's 20-17 victory over St. Louis in Super Bowl XXXVI and a 41-yarder with four seconds left in New England's 32-29 win over Carolina in Super Bowl XXXVIII.

Surely it must be boring to be Adam Vinatieri at times.

[Adam Vinatieri] colaboró con goles de campo clave en los tres Supertazones de los Patriotas de Nueva Inglaterra, incluyendo uno de 48 yardas cuando concluía el Supertazón XXXVI, y uno de 41 yardas cuando restaban cuatro segundos en el Supertazón XXXVIII.

Peyton Manning lanzó para 4,397 yardas en esa temporada para lograr su séptima campaña sumando al menos cuatro mil yardas, y se convirtió en el sexto mariscal de campo en haber logrado esa marca, lo que le ayudó a llegar al Supertazón.

In the days leading up to the Super Bowl, Adam Vinatieri said he hoped he, not John Kasay, would be on the field in the final seconds of the game. Vinatieri, the kicker for the New England Patriots, knew if Kasay, the kicker for the Carolina Panthers, had a chance for a winning kick, he would make it.
Of course, given Vinatieri's reputation, the same could be said for him.

COLTS Everyone knows Peyton Manning has a great arm and great command of the offense, but the work he puts in between Monday and Saturday is the key to his success. ... Reggie Wayne has kind of been their unsung hero the last few years. He hasn't been the game breaker everyone sees in Marvin Harrison, but he makes big plays and he's a guy you need to account for. ... Having a guy like Adam Vinatieri, who has kicked under pressure and won under pressure, is a big plus.
