 Mr. Clutch, no doubt about it - The Boston Globe
Vinatieri won Super Bowl XXXVIII for the Patriots in the final seconds without wearing anything on his head.
All Vinatieri had to do was line up and boot a 31-yard field goal, which is about as routine for him as lacing up his spikes.
As the ball sailed through the uprights, and Vinatieri was mobbed by his teammates (again), poised to be the Super Bowl hero (again), all the misses of a long, long season went poof, like the flashbulbs exploding around him.

 He always gives them a leg up - The Boston Globe
Because of Vinatieri's uncanny reliability, which once again brought the Patriots a last-second (literally) victory yesterday at Ketchup Field over the perennially subdued Steelers, the Patriots are free to play with an untroubled flow in the final minute or two of a game that few other teams may have ever felt.
They know they do not have to drive to the 15- or 20-yard line to assure themselves a solid chance at victory when, as it was yesterday, the score is tied and the clock is running down.
''Adam is the most clutch kicker in the game," quarterback Tom Brady said, after once again reminding us what clutch means himself by going 12 for 12 in the fourth quarter, including 3 for 3 for 37 yards in the final drive to set up Vinatieri's 43-yard game winner with one second on the clock.

 Colts' Adam Vinatieri ready to kick in opener against Giants
Indy officials had hoped Vinatieri's addition would do three things: add a proven foot for the playoffs, where Vanderjagt endured his greatest failures; provide better kickoffs, a concern for the Colts over the last several seasons; and eliminate the controversy the brash Vanderjagt occasionally created.
Vinatieri delivered the winning kicks in two of New England's three Super Bowl victories and consistently delivered solid kickoffs in training camp before the injury.
Vinatieri has not practised with the team since injuring his left foot while running in practice Aug. 14.
