I'm a little confused by this move analysis that is generated in the game report.  I moved the pawn to g6 in order to defend against Qh7+ followed by forced Kf8 and then Qh8#.  What am I missing here?

1. ... Qxd4 2. Qxh7+ Kf8 3. Qh8+ Ke7 and both White's Queen and Rook are attacked?

I guess that makes sense.  Of course, the queen doesn't need to continue to h8 and the rook can be moved instead.  Thanks.

Ha ha, I ran the analysis a couple more times and it came up with g6 as a BLUNDER once and then as the BEST MOVE (with Nd4 as an alternate) the next time, lol!  Seriously!
