Yeah not a nice thing to see. Viking or not. Favre's obviously just trying to earn his stripes from Jared Allen.

Shouldn't have been in the play in the first place. Glad to see he's making an effort to do what he can to help his team win. Obviously he got the 15 yard penalty and is probably soon to be fined, but he threw a TD pass on the same drive to give the Vikings a two score lead at half time. He played a great game and should have had another long touchdown had Percy Harvin caught the pass in the endzone.

Pretty sure it would be ok if Vick did it on this site...

"O daymn did yuuu see dat! Vick iz bac! bruh!"

Jim Rome asked Chris Collingsworth about this earlier.

Collingsworth basically said Favre was just having fun out there and prolly didn't know the rule.

Rome asked him how Favre's been in the league so long and didn't know the rule.

Collingsworth instantly pointed out that McNabb didn't know the overtime rules despite being in the league so long.

Racist.

You cant blame Favre for anything in any way shape or form. This is a problem with putting any player out of position. If the wild cat isnt in the red zone QBs should be ignored. They are useless in the wild cat and its 10 vs 11.
Favre tried to make a block that protected his arms and shoulders. Those parts the QB really needs for his job. defenders should just run around QBs because they are nothing more than pylons in ther middle of the field.

Favre has also been doing these types of blocks for many years. Every time Driver would get a reverse, Favre would hustle down the field a do the same block on the nearest safety/corner. Never got called for it before so he probably either didn't know the rule, or it was just a habit.

read entire post again. I covered the details. This has nothing to do with Favre. This has to do with any player playing an unknown position.

You're right. The league should fine Percy Harvin for running in that general direction instead.

 

[Woy]

The question should be, how did a linebacker let Brett Favre of all people chopblock him?

no, I did not say he shouldnt be fined. I said he is playing out of position not looking to purposely hurt someone.

Why are the Vikings putting Brett Favre in that position to begin with? This whole "wildcat" thing is overrated when your franchise (though in this instance not Favre) is being forced to make blocks.

Well we don't want to be the one team left out when the other 31 teams run it in the regular season to no success.

yes, usually to cover up some weakness in the running game of that team. either the line isnt beefy enough to do a successful run game. So, they may resort to this speed-option-run blocking or something. The only true wildcat will be run in Philadelphia. defenses should just assume run otherwise.

Ever seen Miami play? They disagree with you.

I was at the game and that is what I shouted out when it happened. Why risk losing $12M on a surgically repaired shoulder with one meaningless play in the pre-season?
