Blah blah blah! Go VIKINGS! Favre rules! Saints Colts and everybody not in purple suck!
Colt players Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis would love to meet Mr. Favre’s acquaintance about five yards behind the line of scrimmage, but it won’t happen this year. :D
Favre *may* be the best, ever. Y’know, until the next best ever. I remember his first Super Bowl appearance (you probably do as well), playing against Elway, whom I always kinda disliked for little reason, and yet was rooting for. Elway got has butt handed to him in his first Super Bowl, and it took him the rest of his career to get back there. And then go the next year.
Favre looked like he was all done, with just flashes of brilliance, rapid-fire assaults on defenses, come-from-behind drives moving the ball the length of the field, and yet it wasn’t enough, or wasn’t enough of it.
IMO, he’s playing better ball right now than he has in years, although I’m pretty sure a lot of people think so. I don’t think they’ve got quite enough of a team to go all the way. Having an unbeaten team in both conferences is interesting, particularly this late in the season. It’s difficult enough to do for just one team, but having two suggests we’re heading for a battle of unbeatens.
Or at least, that’s what a lot of people would like to see — assuming they’ve got no dog in the hunt. :’)
