Was Brett Favre exposed???

JetsMatt85 · 12-07-09, 12:36 AM

in a way, yes. vikings offense was exposed for how predictable they are if you can somehow bottle up AP.... which zona did a great job of.

it's regression season for favre. he always sucks in december. as a jets fan, he ****ed us late in the year last year and was the reason we didnt make the playoffs.... so i will sit back and enjoy the choking.

i guarantee in a couple weeks, he'll start his string of excuses again. "shoulder soreness" bla bla bla

did notice one thing during the game.... late in the 3Q. he pump faked, then had to throw to the other side of the field, which forced him to completely turn his body. as he did that, he (very briefly), held his shoulder as if it had bothered/ailed him for just a split second after the pump fake. hard to explain. it was with about 2 minutes left in 3Q if anyone has DVR.

I am thinking this way also that the Vikings can be beaten like the Cardinals did to them tonight is expose them for their weaknesses. It still is going to be tough to beat them in their loud stadium in the playoffs though. Home field will help a lot and losing to Tennessee last week really hurt the Cardinals getting a bye in the playoffs now.

interesting watch

He had no protection from his offensive line. The O-line was awful tonight.

Take a look at the Win/Loss record of the teams MINN has played this year.

All good points here. Minnesota was in a bad position here all the way around.

So glad I hate that toilet

Nice game Zona

rjt721 · 12-07-09, 12:46 AM

Looked like he was fully clothed to me.

Point is he has shown a tendency to have "bad games" in december.

Maybe he had one bad game, or maybe he is just proving the trend right

Off game for the Vikings. They're still sitting great at 10-2.

tltaylor89 · 12-07-09, 01:01 AM

Historically he was due for a multi interception game

So where does the whole exposed factor come in? Is december his exposure? Maybe we should look at peterson only have 13 carries. One of the best rb's in the league, if not the best, has 13 carries? Also doesnt help favre when hes playing from behind because the defense gave up quick points early on.

I think it is obvious by now Childress tries to limit APs carrys

the guy is fumble prone and is all about his numbers instead of winning

he only had 13 carries because he was totally ineffective. why are they going to continue handing the ball off when he was getting hit in the backfield left and right, and at times losing yards? he had what, 20 yards on the night?

i never used the word "exposed", so dont ask me when the factor comes in.
december is not his "exposure" month, as you say, but a 40 year old man's arm who has been in the league for 20 years, experiences a thing called FATIGUE, which comes at the end of the season.

oh boy..where to begin. i guess with corrections..hes 40 years old...league for 20 years* and fatigue happens yes, but that hasn't come into play yet.

so when you say "point is he has a tendency..." etc, your basically agreeing with first post who said he was exposed. Um, AP being ineffective can't be put on brett favre though, which your definatly making it out to be. If you disagree with what i just said, then you should be saying brett favre wasnt "exposed" and it was just a bad team game.

Last year he got hurt late and had a bad december...he got surgery and we'll see if hes ok. The guy went 30-45...thats still 67% with 2 td and 275 yards. So again, the team played bad, they got a loss...wasnt all brett favre's fault, so

.

thank you grammar police. if anything, youre fast. i edited that about 60 seconds after i posted it.

maybe AP being ineffective cant be put on favre, but i never said it was- iwas answering your question as to why AP only got 13 carries.

but in ur original post, you said he "always sucks in december"...you might want to look over his years...

but again..its december and he threw 67%, 275 yards and 2 tds...scored 17 points with no rushing game and defense was weak...I'm just not so sure you know what your saying.

LMAO!!! Wow, he threw for 275 yards and 2 TD's, against one of THE WORST secondaries in the NFL, who's ranked 30th against the pass? Should we give him a cookie. He threw 2 awful INT's also

Your stats are skewed anyways, because a good chunk of those came in the 4Q and on that final drive, when zona dropped back into coverage and played a zone.... giving him the underneath stuff all day.

He did not have a good game by any means. You should have stuck with your original stance that he had an "off day".

B1GER1C828 · 12-07-09, 01:37 AM

So you're still putting everything on Favre...alright have a good night...definatly done with this.

Art Vandelay · 12-07-09, 01:53 AM

It was great to see the old Brett back! Sacks, picks, forcing balls, bad decisions - just in time for December and the playoffs leading to an early exit in the postseason!
