Bf7?

What's wrong with Bf7?

Bf7? nothing but...

Bf7 seems to be a good play unless you look at the fact that Bd7 allows the B to continue his attack on h3 with a mate with Qg2. I don't know that that is a strong argument for Bd7 but it does leave black in a better position if White plays irrationally like moving his knight in response.

Bf7 is the alt solution

It's the second best move, because

1. Qe4 Bf7
2. Qg4+

forces a queen trade, after which, white maintains some semblance of equality.
