no ones really brought this up but how funny was it to see Favre split left and run a route?

just another reason why mccarthy is gaining more and more respect around the league, he wants to give every look there is.. dont be surprised if favre catches a pass at some point

It'll be Driver's revenge for all those broken fingers...

A broken finger on Driver is minuscule compared to a broken finger on Favre.

I wasnt really paying attention during that play and only realized what happened after the fact. Did it fool the defense at all?

It would have been wild to see him catch a pass! 8-)

Defenses know that Favre is one QB who is not afraid to throw a block down field!

I think they ran that play to set up a play later on where Driver pitches it to Favre out of that formation.

That's the only reason I can came up for running that play, at least.

I know that last year Boise state ran several legitimate pass plays out of the formation they ran the statue of liberty out of in goal-line situations, specifically to set up the Statue of Liberty in time of need. My guess is it's something like that.

Either that, or Mac was just being cute.

I have a hunch that Carlyle Holiday has a very tough time earning a spot on the roster next year.

A wrinkle will be Driver taking the snap, handing the ball to Brett coming on the end around who then throws the ball downfield.

With a big lead and close to the goal, Driver throwing a TD to Brett would get some highlights to show for awhile.

I still wish Ruegamer was not holding when Tauscher caught his.

Plays like this show the offense is having a lot of fun.

Anyone happen to see what Favre did on the play? The camera didn't catch it. I suspect he went out and tried to hit someone as he always tries to be part of the play. Favre at WR isn't going to scare anyone but I do see the double pass being a reality.

You just know the WR's are going to have a laugh "breaking down" how he ran his route in the WR meeting. They'll probably call Brett into the room to give him some sh!t.

Favre probably ran the wrong route. Driver was going to through it to him on the out but Favre headed up field so Driver had to pull it down.

At least he didn't throw a pick
