Packers offensive lineman Mark Tauscher summed it up perfectly following Green Bay’s 19-13 OT victory over the Broncos Monday night when he said, “If you say he can’t do something, you can pretty much guarantee that he will.” That “he” Tauscher was referring to is quarterback Brett Favre.
Once again Favre delivered Monday Night Football greatness when he connected with receiver Greg Jennings on an 82-yard touchdown pass to lift the Packers to victory and a 6-1 record on the season. Just two weeks prior, Favre was criticized for throwing several short passes in Green Bay’s 17-14 victory over the Redskins. Critics started to wonder if Favre had the arm strength to throw the deep ball anymore.
Well, he does. So stop thinking this guy is going to fall apart and just enjoy the ride.
