Minnesota Vikings quarterbacks coach Craig Johnson: "Blame is part of the deal"

Minnesota Vikings quarterbacks coach Craig Johnson believes that you have to accept criticism that comes your way playing the position in the NFL.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Craig Johnson believes that you have to accept any criticism that comes your way following a defeat if you play in the position.

Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder was booed by his side's supporters in their defeat to the Cleveland Browns, which left them 0-3 in their season.

"The bottom line is — and he knows this — if you do not win the game, you're getting the blame," Johnson told USA Today.

"That's just the way it is. Suck it up. You're no different than quarterbacks in every other part of the country. When you lose, you're getting the blame. That's part of the deal."

The Vikings face the Pittsburgh Steelers at Wembley on Sunday.
