I have heard a similar rumor made about the SuperBowl against Denver. The rumor was that with only a minute and 45 seconds left in the game, and the Denver offense being on the 1 yard line in scoring position, Holmgrem told the Defense to let Denver score.
Apparently we were out of timeouts, and Denver could have ran the clock out by sitting on the ball at the one yard line. Our Defense let them score , and then gave our Offense 1:45 to tie the game. It almost worked, as Favre took us all the way to the Denver 31 yard line before a 4th down pass to Chmura was knocked down by linebacker Mark Mobley.
