That moment in sports history will pain every Viking fan for the rest of his/her life. And you know what? That's okay.

That's right!! I thought the same thing. His ankle was tore up. He couldn't of ran, he would have got another "remember me shot" from someone. He should have never been in the game, as bad as he was tore up.The reason Favre didn't run was because at that moment he was so beaten up, his body would have never allowed it. We pummeld him and he was agonizing to get rid of that ball and get the game over with.
That's the beauty of Greg William's scheme for that game -- "remember me shots"
Favre "remembered" and chose not to run.
It's revisionist history for him to say he could have run. He wanted no part of the contact we were dishing out. That doesn't make him weak. It makes him human.
Int...OT...FG...we win.
The plan worked.
Move on Vikes.
Its not that i feel we got out played, its just if PT fumbles, or if Brett runs or hits Berrian, or if they dont have twelve men, or if GH misses the kick. I just had so much anxiety in that game(i almost passed out) that i have residual stress haha
Wow, what timing. I mean, this is something he could've said in the offseason. Why now?
Occam's razor: No one was paying attention to Brett Favre, so he had to do/say something.
The Vikings played well in that game for sure.
But if you go back and watch it, the Saints responded to everything they did until late in the 3rd quarter. It was a tight game and the Saints were not "outplayed". The Vikings really only got rolling when Favre started throwing to Shancoe (the covering the TE thing needs to get buttoned up for the Saints).
From there, everytime they threatened to separate, the Saints got a turnover.
That was a hard fought game that in no way the Saints should feel they "got away with". They proved a couple weeks later that they belonged in the Championship.
