Josh McCown reflects on ending Vikings 2003 season
Now the Vikings quarterbacks coach, Josh McCown talked Wednesday at OTAs about ending the Vikings season in 2003 with a touchdown pass to Nate Poole.
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Week 17 of the 2003 football season is one the Minnesota Vikings and their fan base would prefer to forget.
The last play of the Vikings’ walk-off loss to the Arizona Cardinals is trending on Tik Tok Thursday, all because of announcer Paul Allen. In the oddest of connections, EA Sports College Football ’25 users are playing the game with Allen’s radio call of that play that eliminated the Vikings from the NFC Playoffs.
What we know – Josh McCown hit Nathan Poole with a game-winning touchdown in the regular season finale to beat the Vikings.
Why it’s important – The Vikings blew an 11-point lead inside of two minutes left, and they were eliminated from the NFC Playoffs after starting the season 6-0. Ironically, McCown is now the Vikings’ quarterbacks coach.
The other side – With the win, the Cardinals forfeited the No. 1 overall pick. Instead, they got Minnesota native Larry Fitzgerald Jr. No. 3 overall. Fitzgerald played his entire NFL career in Arizona.
