Was about to start a thread on this. First NFL pass was a pick and looks, again, like his last will be an INT. Cost his team (GB in 06-07 and Vikes in 09-10) two shots at a SB title with terrible decisions.
Just inexcusable for, supposedly, one of the all time greats.
He shouldn't have been in that position to throw it, Childress really blew the play calling once they got to the 30. To blame it all on Favre is really looking at it blindly. Freaking offensive line was killing him, running backs could not hang on to the ball, and with bad play calling and penalty at end of regulation put him in a position he should not have been in. Bad interception yes, but the rest of the team fucked things up big time
He is a very good QB and had great year, but the fact is he made another costly mistake at the worst moment and cost his team another chance at a SB ring.
Effort, ability and passion are something most of these guys play with, and I don't think anybody is questioning Brett's desire.
