Favre-tastic

I know....we have the official BF thread...but dang.....

Say what you want about the man, we brought him here for his composure in the pocket and ability to read defenses, plus his desire to win.

Marr...he may let us down in the end, but at least he gives us a legitimate shot to get there.

The pocket kept collapsing around him, and he kept making plays.
Any other QB on our roster I believe cracks under the pressure and loses the game for us.

Any, any more questions about his ability to throw the ball downfield.
He still didn't have the time I would like to see the line give him, but with his feet, and some play action, he was able to get it down there.

That play meant more to me than porn means to El Vikingo.

What a play.
How about some props for Greg Lewis making the great catch on that play!?

Exactly what I thought.

All I could think the second I saw that catch was "Thank God we cut Bobby Wade."

[size=13pt]Fireworks from Favre turn a loss into a win[/size]
Posted by Mike Florio on pft.com

...[a]nd then it happened.
Favre dropped back, rolled right, and heaved the ball an instant before being flatted from behind.

Somehow, Greg Lewis -- signed off the New England trash heap just before the start of the season -- jumped in the back of the end zone, got two feet down, hit the ground, and maintained possession.

Vikings win, 27-24.

And, in one game at the Metrodome, Favre delivered the kind of a miracle that Minnesotans haven't witnessed first-hand since Ahmad Rashad reached back and hauled in a Hail Mary from Tommy Kramer at the old Metropolitan Stadium in December 1980.
