I can see that happening. You can pencil Sharper in for 2 on the 21st.
(HaHa I just said "pencil Sharper"). And Winfield for 1 and Griffin for 1.
You can also pencil in Smoot for a Hangover. ;D

It'll be interesting to see what he hits first, the 277 INTS to tie the record (he's 12 away) or the 420 TDs to tie the record (he's 10 away). INTs INTs INTs

That would be to tie the record this year. There is always next year.

IMO, he will not retire until he gets at least the TD record.

I agree singer, unfortunately he's going to stick around just to break the TD record.

He did his part to get closer.

1 TD and 2 more picks today

411 TDs
9 behind Marino to tie

267 INTs 10 behind Blanda to tie (and surpasing Tarkenton for 3rd all time)

He won't retire until he get's his AARP card.

I saw his press conference after today's game and he seemed very dejected! He also looked really old, barely has any hair that isn't gray!

As of today Favre has 262 INTS.
The top three INT leaders are:

George Blanda: 277
John Hadl: 268
Fran Tarkenton: 266

The Packers will undoubtedly come out throwing this weekend.
The Viking have a chance to rack up 5 INTS and push Fran Tarkenton out of the top three.
That would be sweet.
I wish Favre would go back to his 2005 form and start tossing INTS left and right...because it sure would be nice to see the Vikings push him into the all-time lead at Lambeau in December.
