On Sunday, Brett Favre passed Dan Marino's legendary mark of 420 passing touchdowns against the Minnesota Vikings. This is one of the most talked about records in sports next to the home run record and the points record in basketball. This is only one of the records Brett Farve will pass this season as he already has the record for most wins as a starting quarterback, which he broke on the first game of the season against the Philadelphia Eagles. Brett is also on pace to break the passing yards record for a career.
Brett Favre already has some astonishing records on his resume for the hall of fame. Some of which include most completions in a career and most seasons with 3,000 or more passing yards. Along with the good, though, comes the bad as Brett Favre will also hold the record for most interceptions in a career, as he only needs two more to break that. With a career such as Brett Favre's, that recird will go unnoticed.
Favre's remarkable career is just a side note to the season the Green Bay Packers are putting together. As of today, they have a record of 4-0, which is atop the NFL North division. The bears, on the otherhand, bring up the rear with a miserable 1-3 record. Both teams will be put to the test next week when they square off at Lambeau Field in Green Bay. Next to the San Diego Chargers, the Bears have to be the biggest dissappointment from last year. Although a shakey Rex Grossman led them to the Super Bowl last year, it looks like the complete opposite this year. He has a 1-2 record under his belt and as of last week, has lost his starting job to veteran Brian Griese.
This is the best start for the Packers since 1998, but missed the Super Bowl. With Brett Favre looking his best and the defense stepping up and making plays, i would'nt count them out this year. We will have to sit back and watch the magic continue
