Seems I am alone in this line of thinking but the effort Moss made on that last pass was atrocious. I agree Favre’s not playing up to his supposed ability but if Moss makes a little more effort game goes the other way. GB has no, none, zero, killer instinct. If a better coach is available next year I’d liketo see GB make a move. Just MO.

The Vikings pushed all their chips to the middle of the table this year. Risky to do when you have a QB long in the tooth and a lot of miles on him. And it’s not just Favre…the Vikings are an old team….extremely talented but old.

i don’t think brett wanted to be back i think if he was not pressured by his team mate he would be retired for good right now . the VIQUEENS terrible record is not from brett alone the defense is not playing at the level it was last year the only player playing hard is AP the, every one else need to step up there efforts on the Queens even the over rated Coach Childress.

Scary thought Travis…(re: Vick)

Campbell – what Dave in Tucson said – he didn’t connect on the final TD and even if he had, that wouldn’t have necessarily ended the game. That’s sort of like saying “would you be saying this if he had a QB rating of 100 and hadn’t thrown 10 picks and fumbled 4 times?”. The facts are the facts here. However you look at it, right now the truth is that the Vikings are not getting their money’s worth. That was the point of my post.

Such acuity! I am all astounded.

@Campbell — you are absolutely right. If things were different, they wouldn’t be the same.

awhayes..Would you be saying this if he had connected on that final TD? Enough already with the juvenile braying re Favre, it’s gotten old.

If Rodgers had an iota of the old man’s intensity and competitive drive, I’d feel a whole a lot better about the Packers. As yet he’s still accomplished nothing but flashy stats and a woeful inability to win close games.

GB didn’t win the game, Favre gave it to them.

@DaveK — even if Harvin’s late catch had been a TD, there was still 0:48 left, and the Packers had all 3 of their time outs. They would’ve had at least a chance to answer (it actually would’ve been a lot tougher if he had completed one of those last two to Moss).

Well don’t be surprised to see Vick there next year, and that idea scares me

Yeah, that over-paid turd was a toe tap away from beating the Packers on Sunday. The guy is still a top-10 QB in this league and he gets $1 million a game because he was the best free agent QB on the market and there was a team who thought they were a good QB away from a championship.
