Yeah, Baltimore's kicker had nothing to do with it.

If Brett doesnt get them down the field the posession before, we aren't talking about any missed field goals. He can't play defense.

When baltimore took the lead, I thought the game was over. Favre got them back down the field for the winning score. Give credit where it is due.

He may very well play like crap for the rest of the year but the last two games he has played very well and so far this season he has played like an upper echelon QB. Is that not an accurate assessment?

Favre has played very well but not quite in the range of upper echelon QB. He's not the QB he used to be but for once in his life he seems to have realized that and he's not making the stupid throws that are so characteristic of Favre. With Peterson and a good offensive line, solid QB play with minimal mistakes is all the Vikings need. I haven't seen anything to think that he's doing anything that say, a healthy Chad Pennington couldn't do. Let's see how the next two games go, he has to go on the road to play two solid teams. So far the Vikes have only beat up on crappy teams (crappy might be an understatement) on the road. If he shows up the next two weeks, wins them both, and plays well then he absolutely deserves props. Until then he isn't doing anything more than 15 other NFL QBs could do in the same situation. But more than likely, they lose them both and are tied with the Pack atop the NFC North.

So, if he goes into Pittsburgh and Green Bay and wins AFTER leading his team to a 6-0 record with no bye week and playing one of the most physical teams in the league, then he can be considered upper echelon?

Chad Pennington can do what he has done this year?

This is why you are an easy mark. You have a bad opinion and you stick with it even though there is nothing but overwhelming evidence to say that you are wrong.

FAVRE SEASON STATS:

178 124 1,347 69.7 7.6 12 6.7 2 1.1 63 14 90 109.5

12 tds 2 ints 69.7 completion percentage. 6 and 0.

Top five numbers...UPPER ECHELON.
