    Now why in the hell did you post this. I'm watching it on delay. LOL I haven't gotten to the first TD pass yet. Thanks a LOT. LOL Oh well, turn off the computer and watch the game. I agree. The man has just been superb. Got to love old with grit.

    This Vikes team Is something else this year, wow!!! The score could've been allot higher then It was thanks to Peterson and his fumbles. The man needs to learn how to hang on the ball!! :(

    Adrian needs to get a kick in the backside. With game in hand, I would have benched him the rest of the game. Something needs to change. He gets a ton of praise, but quite a bit more criticism is in order.

    Great game... unless you wanted Chicago to win. LOL Don't be throwing Adrian under the bus just yet. He's done a lot of good. Of course it would be nice if he never fumbled. BUT, it might not be so nice without him. He's still a force and definitely effects how other teams react.

    Forget Favre for a minute. What about my Titans and Vince Young marching them 99 yards in a minute for the win? What an exciting finish!

    No love for the colts comeback, I mean that was pretty good too. BTW if you want a hard decision, get Favre and Manning on your fantasy team and try to decide which one to play, Manning has more pass yards, they both have the same amount of touchdowns at 24 (which leads the league), and Favres rating is better, I never play the right one on the right week.

    Right now, with Favre's weapons, how can you not start him? Favre only has 3 picks..stat of the year.

    adrian peterson is a lot like favre... you KNOW he's gonna give it up 1-2x per game (this season is an oddity for favre in that respect), but you just accept it for having him on the team... the explosiveness of his running (or favre with his passing) you just have to accept that they will make up for it...

    okokok I'll eat some crow! I must say it has been an impressive ride thus far. Tough to argue about what he's doing out there. I'll give credit where it's due and he deserves it. Not a Favre lover or hater. He just exists to me.
    My only concern if I were a viking fan would be him staying healthy the rest of the way. I'm not even talking major injury. A season of bumps and bruises in the NFL can really pile up especially on an old man like Favre.

    also keep in mind, he hasn't been getting bumped and brusied so much this season... only 22 sacks (compared to rodgers at 44 sacks)... all in all brett has had a fairly easy year and even the sacks he's taken haven't been hard hits so much... and against the bears he even showed some pretty good mobility avoiding a couple other sacks nicely... he's only been playing 3/4 of games lately which will help also... but I'd bet that 2.5 million people in minnesota are now giving him the benefit of the doubt as they see their team COASTING to a first round bye in the playoffs...

    He's already won there hearts. I haven't heard a single bad word about Favre since the season began..there is seriously NOTHING anybody can say.

    He beat the Packers twice
    He has the best team in the NFC
    He leads the league is touchdown passes
    He leads the league in rating
    HE HAS ONLY THROWN 3 INTERCEPTIONS....WTF!

    All of this at 40 years old and playing on A BRAND NEW TEAM!

    Has there ever been a 40 year old MVP? OR an MVP in their first year on a new team?

    I play it week to week considering the circumstances of what team either one of them is playing, also Manning has been more consistent this year and hasnt posted a game under 30 points and Favre has done it three times.
