13 and 3 baby!

The Eagles have been plucked!

Now the Giants have been shortened.

Now the Chargers have been shorted to ground!

The Vikings went down with the longboat!

The Bears bought off the refs, yeah that's it.

The Redskins go home with another defeat.

The Broncos have been sent to the glue factory!

The Chiefs are sent Packing!

The Vikings are getting a Norse funeral.

The Panthers are stuck in the litter box.

The Lions are not the king of the jungle.

Dallas once again wins at home.

The Raiders get smoked!

The Rams were taken down!

The Bears took advantage of mistakes.

The Lions were run out of Lameau.

Playoffs

The 'Hawks got frozen out!

Well, NY's kicker finally made one.

I know there will be no reason to watch the Superbowl this year. I don't like/care for either team, so I'll clean my guns or something else useful that day.

NEXT YEAR!

It's been a great season, much better than I expected at the beginning of the year.

Giants are going down. 35-13 less than 4 mins left.

The Pack is 2-0. Favre now holds the record for all time wins for a QB. Only 3 td passes short of Marino's record(total td passes).

Favre throws 420th TD pass to tie Marino's record

Associated Press

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Brett Favre threw his 420th career touchdown pass in the fourth quarter of the Green Bay Packers' game against the San Diego Chargers at Lambeau Field on Sunday, tying Dan Marino's all-time NFL record.

Favre, who is playing his 17th NFL season and turns 38 next month, was credited with a 57-yard completion to Greg Jennings, who ran a slant pattern from the left side. The touchdown, with 2:03 remaining, gave the Packers a 24-21 lead.

Favre zeroed in on yet another career milestone just a week after leading the Packers to a road victory over the New York Giants for his 149th win as a starter -- passing John Elway's all-time record.

Favre started his quarterback-record 240th consecutive game Sunday, tying him for second on the all-time list for any position with former Minnesota center Mick Tingelhoff. Former Minnesota defensive end Jim Marshall holds the all-time mark with 270 consecutive starts.

Including the playoffs, Favre has started 250 career games.

As he usually does, Favre downplayed talk about personal records and individual achievements earlier this week. Besides, Favre said, Peyton Manning will probably end up breaking the touchdown pass mark in a few years.

"I couldn't tell you how it's looked at," Favre said, when asked about the record earlier this week. "I know it's a lot of touchdowns. But if you play a long time, that means you're playing fairly well."

While there is no single record for quarterbacks that carries the significance of Barry Bonds passing Hank Aaron's career home run record, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Marino's touchdown mark probably comes closest.

This week Favre said he didn't think the touchdown record was getting anywhere near the hype that Bonds' pursuit of Aaron received over the summer. Then he laughed off any further comparison to Bonds, smiling as he jokingly flexed his forearms to prove he doesn't quite measure up.

Powering the Packers to a 17-14 halftime lead over the Chargers, Favre threw two touchdown passes in the first half.

The first went to Driver, who dove and stretched his arms to catch a lob from Favre and put the Packers ahead 10-7 in the second quarter. Favre's 418th career touchdown pass came one play after he flipped the ball underhanded to running back DeShawn Wynn for a first down on third-and-3 at the Chargers' 14.

Favre's second touchdown went to tight end Bubba Franks, allowing the veteran to redeem himself for dropping a potential touchdown pass in the first quarter that forced the Packers to settle for a field goal.

Brett Favre's milestone TD passes
No. Date Opponent Career game Receiver
1 Sept. 20, 1992 Bengals 4th Sterling Sharpe
100 Dec. 3, 1995 Bengals 62nd Edgar Bennett
200 Nov. 15, 1998 at Giants 107th Tyrone Davis
300 Oct. 13, 2002 at Patriots 166th Ahman Green
400 Sept. 24, 2006 at Lions 228th Greg Jennings
420 Sept. 23, 2007 Chargers 244th Greg Jennings
The touchdown to Franks came one play after another classic -- but not-so-glamorous -- Favre moment. Facing first-and-goal at the Chargers' 5, Favre began to scramble and tried to pump fake -- only to watch the ball pop out of his hands for an apparent fumble that was recovered by the Chargers.

A replay determined his arm was in motion when the ball popped out, and the play was ruled an incomplete pass. On second-and-goal, Favre found Franks in the left-front corner of the end zone for his 419th touchdown pass.

Favre, who also is two interceptions shy of tying George Blanda's all-time record of 277, makes no apologies for his high-risk, high-reward style of play over the years.

Given the fact he is also closing in on Marino's career records for attempts and yards passing, Favre said earlier this week it's only logical he would have a lot of touchdowns and interceptions.

"There have been some bad plays, some bonehead plays, whatever you want to call it," Favre said earlier this week. "But a lot of those good ones would not be there if it wasn't for taking a chance. For me, it has been well worth the risk."

I don't think I've ever heard 2 announcers enjoying themselves as much as Al and John tonight. Makes total sense, though. How can you watch the Pack own the Bears at Lambeau Field and not be in a good mood?

Another great GB/CHI game.

Unfortunatly, the wrong team won.

GB - 20 CHI - 27.

The Packers beat themselves tonight.

Look at the opening drive and how it resulted in a touchdown. Then look at the next two drives that were going great until the 2 turnovers. If the Pack didn't have all the turnovers and penalties they would have won the game. It should have been 21-0 at the end of the first quarter. But that's what happens when you turn over the ball. The Bears capitalized on a few of the turnovers, then kicked it in gear in the 4th to win. It was also great to see the Pack establish a running game for the first time all season. They'll need it if they want a playoff run.

I'm also glad that they tried to not kick it to Hester. Damn that kid is talented.

I was also surprised that Lovie started Griese tonight. I thought for sure they would go back to Grossman, but I guess enough is enough.

All in all a great game, but the wrong team won.

It's also interesting to note that Lovie Smith is undefeated at Lambeau Field. Something to think about.

Yup, they stole 2 td passes from Brett. At least the defense won it for us.

A bye week and then off to Denver. Let's kick some horse's ass!!!!

It was 19 - 13.

What flavor of crack was Bigby smokin'? He single-handedly tried to give the game to Denver. WTF??????

I must have been smoking some crack also to put that score up.

Corrected.

And Bigby should be the Broncos MVP. I spent most of the game cussing him out.

Start a cowpie thread so I can troll it..........................better yet, why don't we let the players settle things on the field. You don't have a clue who's going to win, just as I don't.

ETA:

You are in the weakest division in the NFL.

The Pack has beaten the Eagles, the Giants, and the Redskins. All teams in your much more superior division. The only team we haven't beaten in your precious division is your precious cowpies. We ain't played you yet.

You might be better served worrying about the Eagles, Giants, Redskins and Jets which are on your schedule before you get to us.

Nope you are a troll because you are being a jackass in the Packer fan thread and it will not be tolerated.

Packers are looking good! It's hard to win on the road at Arrowhead Stadium, but they pulled it off.

If you would have told me that the Pack would start off at 7-1 I wouldn't have believed it. What an incredible season they are having.

I guess I can't complain too much, though, because last Sunday they were busy showing American Idol reruns instead of the GB game

A.J. Hawk will sack Tom Brady on the first play taking him out of the game, on the next play Atari Bigby delivers a bone crushing blow to Randy Moss and then Packers will run away with it from there.
