It's amazing how open Driver was in the end zone!

One think about that play that been overlooked is the great job Donald Lee did to get the extra yardage needed for the 1st down, and the block by Ruvell Martin that helped spring him.

Does a better example exist of what is meant by the term "playmaker"?

Ruvell Martin is a VERY good blocker
Bubba is too

Both had very key blocks downfield last week

What amazes me about the play is how Daryn Colledge missed the guy in the first place. I hope he doesn't have those kinds of brain cramps Sunday.

Sportswriters and football fans will long argue who is the best quarterback ever to play pro football.

Favre has proven that he is the Master of Improvisation. I can't think of any NFL quarterback who can improvise a broken play that way Favre can.

OPF, that's because there isn't one! :wink:
