Meanwhile, this game Favre has thrown deep how many times? And for a TD, no less.Thanks for that info.. For some reason I thought it had something to do with a blocked FG and some bad defense on the 49ers Offensive TD's drive.... Nice to know my eyes are deceiving me and it is because Favre isn't throwing deep.
please don't pollute this thread with misinformation. He is averaging over 100% more than 2.5 yds per attempt. Look it up. I am sorry it offends you that I think posting false numbers is not acceptable.
The 49ers have 81 yards of offense and are winning the game. They Vikings don't know how to go for the throat. Yes, the field goal was blocked but the 49ers have no right being in the game. That isn't being ignorant, it's called not being a homer. I'm not blaming Favre, I'm blaming the joke of a head coach and o-coordinator.
It's strong now, I'm listing to Paul Allen on Sirius and my radio can pause, so I'll just be a few minutes behind. Thanks for the info!
and it's almost as if some Favre haters will always make ridiculous posts.It's almost as if people are underestimating San Francisco's D still this year. Even after the blocked FG - TD return.
Seriously.. you need to put down whatever it is you are drinking and step away. 49ers Defense is playing lights out against Peterson. 49ers Offense has taken advantage when they needed to and the Special teams blocked a FG and returned it for a TD..The 49ers have 81 yards of offense and are winning the game. They Vikings don't know how to go for the throat. Yes, the field goal was blocked but the 49ers have no right being in the game. That isn't being ignorant, it's called not being a homer. I'm not blaming Favre, I'm blaming the joke of a head coach and o-coordinator.and now blaming Favre as the reason the 49ers are still in the game. You look really ignorant here, son.
SF sack!:confetti:
Any team with a defense like that and an offense that doesn't turn over the ball is a Superbowl contender.Signed,Seriously.. you need to put down whatever it is you are drinking and step away. 49ers Defense is playing lights out against Peterson. 49ers Offense has taken advantage when they needed to and the Special teams blocked a FG and returned it for a TD..The 49ers have 81 yards of offense and are winning the game.

49ers are not the joke some here want to think they are.. Are they super bowl contenders??
but these aren't the 2008 49ers out there. Singletary has them playing hard every down.
Hill did toss that INT, but I take your point.Any team with a defense like that and an offense that doesn't turn over the ball is a Superbowl contender.Signed,Seriously.. you need to put down whatever it is you are drinking and step away. 49ers Defense is playing lights out against Peterson. 49ers Offense has taken advantage when they needed to and the Special teams blocked a FG and returned it for a TD..The 49ers have 81 yards of offense and are winning the game.

True...he has looked ok.But with that came a lower percentage and several off the defenders hands.Meanwhile, this game Favre has thrown deep how many times?

I'm not trying to be combative. I merely posted my opinion, and then a stat I heard on ESPN , in which Dilfer stated that removing YAC and only looking at how far the ball travels in the air Favre is averaging 2.5 yards per pass. Conversely Brees is averaging 9.6 yards that ball travels in the air. For some reason that caused an uproar. There appears to be an inferiority complex with Vikings fans and their team. How can you not watch this team and see how conservative the offense is.
He's old and far from perfect, but he's not the reason the Vikings aren't up by two scores right now.True...he has looked ok.But with that came a lower percentage and several off the defenders hands.Meanwhile, this game Favre has thrown deep how many times?

THe TD to Rice was beautiful though.
Trent Dilfer was a bad QB but he is quickly becoming the next Jaws for ESPN. I love his analysis and passion.
What I find even more fascinating is how the shoe is on the other foot. Packer fans trashing Favre and Viking fans protecting him..Never thought I'd see the day..
Yeah but the offense simply hasn't changed just on account of picking up Favre. That's on Chilly and Bevell. Favre's performance today isn't thrilling either, though, and they are taking their shots. The first two weeks has to be considered by design. The rest of the season? Who knows, but it'll probably stay conservative.
Maybe because our Oline can't pass block for more than 2 seconds.
Berrian has been terrible today, but didn't the defender get a hand on that to tip it in the air?
Agree there.Just was laughing at the whole high completion percentage talk.He's old and far from perfect, but he's not the reason the Vikings aren't up by two scores right now.True...he has looked ok.But with that came a lower percentage and several off the defenders hands.Meanwhile, this game Favre has thrown deep how many times?

Berrian = the new Troy Williamson
WHat are you talking about? Other than that miss to Percy earlier, Favre has been on the money. BB should have 80 yards by now and no int if he would of caught that one. Favre doesnt play special teams last I heard.
I agree. That was my point. Why pull a guy out of retirement and pay him 12 million to throw the ball 3 yards down the field. I don't think Favre is the problem in this game. I never said he was. It's obvious the Vikings are the class of the division right now, but playcalling is questionable. I could see AP rushing for 200 yards next week against the Packer D though.
Then I guess the answer to your question is that Tarvaris or Sage weren't going to do any better, and I guess Coaches don't really care who gets paid what as long as it doesn't stop them from keeping the guys they want on the roster.
Worse.
Yeah aggravated his leg injury it looked like. Carted off, coffee has been doing well in his stead.
hurt he is out
this is an easy question to answer.1. Favre was better than the other choices.
Because of playcalling and penalties like this.
wondering Y I picked him off the WW in a $100 league and I started him.
