Game Notes

Vikings give up their playoff hopes, blowing a lead 4 times en route to a 30-23 loss to the Ravens.

Minnesota leads 7-0, 14-7, 17-10, 20-17 and can't hold on to stay alive in the playoff race against a team that has nothing to play for. Brad Johnson is 25-of-36 for 248 yards and 2 TDs, but loses a costly fumble.

Meanwhile, Minnesota's defense may have resurrected Kyle Boller's sagging QB career. One week after showing incompetence against Pittsburgh, the Vikings are torched for 289 yards and 3 TDs by Boller. Derrick Mason has 9 catches for 103 yards and 1 TD.
