Childress and Johnson weigh in on the final offensive play
Just to avoid any confusion, here what quarterback Brad Johnson said about the final play.
"It was a man-to-man coverage," Johnson said. "I couldn't believe they were in the coverage, actually. (I) took a hit on it, they applied a lot of pressure.
"It was there for the taking and I had to take the shot if it was there, so I took it," Johnson said. "I was hoping I would get that kind of coverage actually and we just didn't come through with it. I thought we played (the) possessions going into it the way we needed to and that was the shot we took and took it. "
Coach Brad Childress on the final play: "Yeah, we just tried to throw it to a playmaker.
"Troy has been good for us, and he had man-to-man coverage out there," Childress said.

Not to make excuses, but I would only point out that all three defenses they've faced thus far were top 10 last year.
You are right, Larry D. That's what makes this game all the more painful for the Vikes; they had it won.
