One day after taking to Twitter to rail against the playing conditions at the University of Minnesota's TCF Bank Stadium, Vikings punter Chris Kluwe conceded that the frozen tundra was not an issue in Monday night's game against the Bears.
"It was much better than it was for the walk-through," Kluwe said, according to 1500ESPN.com. "And I think guys were able to keep their footing pretty well, considering the circumstances with the snow and everything."
The weather varied throughout Chicago's 40-14 romp -- periods of snow mixed with rain and wind to create some slick spots on the turf. Some players had trouble finding their footing during the game, and on more than one play, ball carriers slid several yards across the field before coming to a stop after they were tackled.
