Vikings 12, Lions 10

By Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS: A questionable pass interference penalty on Leigh Bodden put Minnesota's woeful offense in position for a 26-yard field goal by Ryan Longwell with 9 seconds to go, lifting the Vikings to a 12-10 victory today and keeping the Lions winless for the season.

Detroit seemed to outplay the Vikings for the entire game in a spirited effort, but the Vikings (3-4) got a boost from a call by field judge Mike Weir.

Trailing 10-9 in the final 3 minutes, the Vikings had a second-and-20 from their 32. Gus Frerotte threw deep down the sideline for Aundrae Allison, and the ball fell incomplete. But Weir whistled cornerback Bodden for pass interference, despite what appeared to be minimal contact.
