Look at the velocity on Favre's throws it's incredible. No matter what happened at the end of the year in the Playoffs, this was an outstanding year for him. His age, the injuries, the comeback....the best TD/INT ratio of his career and didn't lose any of that flame-thrower of an arm. I mean just look at how hard he throws the ball through traffic, and how great his timing was with the WR's. Outside of Barry Sanders, as a huge Bills fan, the only non-Bills jersey I ever wore consistently was Brett Favre. He was just so much fun to watch.

There would have been a flag and the kicker would have gotten smashed. In comes the other kicker and the Vikings miss lol!

Was at this game. It was THE loudest event/ anything I've ever been a part of. Absolutely amazing experience. Still love telling the story about how i went with my mom to this game cuz my stepdad was sick. I knew it was gonna be one of the most exciting seasons of football ever 😝

I love how Rodgers throws the ball but Favre's throwing motion is pretty damn spectacular. @6:15 his throw to Percy Harvin is a sight to watch. @5:50 I felt he threw that ball so hard to Sidney Rice under that intense pressure.

Can we all appreciate how aggressive the game used to be? It’s powder puffs now, I’m all for player safety, so it may be for good reason. But these boys are aggressive back then!

Favre was awesome! Super fun to watch.

I remember seeing Brett Favre running on to the field on t.v. and everything behind him was a blur from all the middle fingers. That season was special.

Farve was great even at 40

Favre’s throwing movement is mesmerizing

The year after this, the NFL made them stop doing the famous “helmets clashing” MNF intro, and also instituted most of the new quarterback rules that pretty much immediately changed the game into something it was admittedly already morphing into anyway.

dova kitten except that before these rule changes the QB wasn’t a superposition and you didn’t necessarily need your starting QB (or to have your starter even be good) to get to the playoffs, as long as you had a solid run game and O-line you could run it 40 times a game and wear teams down, then hit them with a play action pass for the dagger. Some teams rolled out trash QBs year after year paying them dirt and still made the playoffs every season, because QB is just one position and there are supposed to be multiple different ways to win. That is until these exact rule changes made QB into an untouchable superposition.

I was there - it was insane... took a week to get my voice back. Favre made Sidney Rice look like Jerry Rice in 2009... S. Rice never did squat before or after.

It’s pretty crazy to think that this was Brett Favre after his prime. Brett was a special player. Sometimes we forget. It’s almost like Rodgers greatness really did make us forget about how great his predecessor was. Favre was considered one of the 5 goats(Marino, elway, Montana etc). Now it’s almost as if we only talk about manning, Montana, Brady, Brees, and Rodgers being the best.

From Packers' Country here, and yes, I did love Favre. He had some good numbers that last year with GB when he was traded, and that was hard to dismiss, but honestly it was time for Rogers to get his shot. I was always impressed with Favre's ability to feint with that ball so hard that it would make the defense bite, sometimes twice on the same play, even. Either way, if he had to be replaced, who better than the guy we have now???

This really gives an idea how good the Vikings 'D' was in goal line situations in '08 and '09. Against the Bears the year before, they stopped Chicago cold on four tries. Again here against Green Bay they do the same thing. And when they had the Packers pinned down on their goal line, Jared Allen took over. I bet to this day, Aaron Rodgers still has nightmares about Jared Allen.
