This says it all:
But over the next 39 minutes, Carolina's best player not only didn't touch the ball, he had it thrown his way only three times.
...
"Minnesota did a fine job as far as creating pressure that limited our passing to a certain degree," Panthers coach John Fox said. "I thought Steve had a good week of practice and a good week of preparation. We just had some problems getting the football actually out of the quarterback's hand."
Yes, the Vikings' vicious pass rush was the story of the game. It created five sacks, seven hurries, three batted balls, six false starts and, oh yeah, a forced fumble that Antoine Winfield returned for a game-tying touchdown that changed everything right before the half.
But the Panthers also played into the Vikings' hands by not countering with quicker passes. The situation begged for those Favre-ian slant passes that used to drive the Vikings crazy. Yet Carolina continued to send receivers much deeper than their ability to pass protect.
