Favre throws six TDs as Jets rout Cardinals 56-35

Brett FavreBrett Favre threw six touchdown passes and the Jets’ defense caused seven turnovers in New York’s 56-35 rout of the Cardinals on Sunday.

Favre had touchdown passes of 12, 34 and 2 yards as the Jets hung 34 points on Arizona in the second quarter. Favre then connected on scores of 17, 40 and 24 in the second half while announcers across the country tripped on themselves to utter the words, “That’s just classic Favre isn’t he? He always looks like he’s having fun!” (Seriously, I must have heard that line 42 times today.)

Laveranues Coles hauled in eight passes for 105 yards and three touchdowns while Jerricho Cotchery caught four passes for 67 yards and two scores. The Jets did absolutely whatever they wanted against a hapless Cardinals’ secondary, which had no clue on how to defense any New York receiver. The Jets improved to 2-2 on the year.

Despite completing 40 of 57 passes for 472 yards and two touchdowns, Kurt Warner’s poor play killed Arizona all day. Facing only a two-man rush midway threw the second quarter, Warner managed to throw an interception to Darrelle Revis, who baited him like a trout and returned the pick for a 32-yard touchdown pass. No-thumbs Warner also lost four fumbles, which means he contributed to six of Arizona’s seven turnovers.

In a scary moment late in the fourth quarter, Cards’ WR Anquan Boldin (10 rec., 119 yards, 1 TD) was crushed in between two defenders and appeared to lose conciseness for a moment. He was carted off the field, but it’s unclear at this point how serious the injury is. Arizona is now 2-2 on the season.
