Actually that shouldn't be a problem. Sidney Rice has been activated and is partcipating fully in practice.Quote:

I'm not a vikings fan. Just because I like favre doesn't mean I want hima nd his team to win games. What I said about him playing better last week was 100% true, and any NFL fan could see that. It's also true they are in must win every game mode. I did nothing but state plain and obvious facts. Whether or not Favre continues to play better the rest of the season has yet to be deteremined, but we'll see. For our sake we need to hope there is just too much locker rooom dicension for them to overcome, but all we can do is worry about us right now. We are in first, so we control our own playoff destiny.
Rice is probably not near playing shape. No focus on Moss anymore.
The Vikes will need to rely on AP more or they are in trouble
Oh yea...lol...Good one, Aynrand!Quote:

"We talked about it like girlfriends talk about that kind of stuff. You have to understand that Brett Favre isn't the first celebrity that tried to hook up with her."

How do girlfriends talk about that kind of stuff? Eww
They laugh at the pictures and giggle about how they'd never want the mess that comes along with it, even if good things do *sometimes* come in small packages.Quote:

Gotta give him credit. It was the better side of Favre out there at the end of the game. That TD pass to Shiancoe was pretty nice.Quote:

It's been odd seeing people still clamoring for T-Jack when, down by 14, not sure anyone but a risk taker such as favre has a "chance" at that come back. He had to take some risks with some really tight throws.Quote:

I don't know why exactly, but risk taking just makes me all giddy.

I saw a couple nice passes from Favre that game. One seemed simple and didn't end up in a TD, but it was a swing pass to Gerhert. Favre threw it well before Gerhert was looking and just skimmed it by a LB who was in good position, but not in posiiton to look for the ball. It went just passed the LB and hit Gerhert right when he turned. He threw him open like very few QB's really do. Gerhart should have had a TD, but he sucks. The 2nd throw was that Shiancoe TD pass. That was a brilliant throw.
His mobility is at an all time low and it is starting to cost him. He's not a guy you would look up to in any other way than football. When it comes to playing football though, he knows how to play with the best of them and his body still has just enough left to have some flashes of brilliance.
To be completely honest, he makes some throws that I wish Rodgers would make but somehow doubt he'll ever attempt let alone complete. Rodgers has the legs though and I trust him more with ball security. Today, I think we have the better QB, but there are things Favre still does that I wish Rodgers would do. Favre throws guys open better and understands defenses in a way where if he knows a guy has his back to him, he'll just skim it by him. Rodgers treats defenders backs almost like they were facing him.
Yeah, he can't do everything he could in his younger years, but you can definitely see the difference in his experience and knowledge of the game in comparison to Rodgers. Rodgers will get there as he moves on, but somet hings Favre does it is unrealistic to expect that of Rodgers. Favre may throw some picks, but he really has some pinpoint accuracy at times that is just scary good.Quote:

Sometimes he doesn't get that chance - int int eh endzone as an example. You just aren't going to avoid pressure when it's untouched up the middle, but he showed SOME mobility today.
He can't do that all game, but he shouldn't have to. What I saw from Favre today seemed to be a massive change in his mindset. He made a commitment this week to spread the ball around. Sure, Harvin was clearly the go to guy, but 6 people at 4 or more catches. Clearly a commitment to reading the defense and throwing to open guys.
That may have happened due to practice time finally paying off. Berrian and him seemed in sync, and Rice looks like he could be back if not for chicago, definitely for us.
Impressed, overall, with his play today. He does do a few things that I will miss, things I wish AR did, but at this point AR is probably the better of the two. AR makes more plays with his legs, but a big credit to Favre for even making it a debate still at 41.
Very good game overall from Favre. Hope he doesn't continue to paly that well the rest of the way, but like I said... he still has something left.
Sorry to throw water on your fire here PB, but Arizona isn't exactly a stout defense. 21st against the pass, 29th against the run. 31st in PPG.Quote:
