It appears the gunslinger has found his rightful home; on a team that to win he’s gotta punch holes in the end zone like he’s firing a tommy gun. Yesterday the Cardinals obliged, giving Favre the field position of college overtime football for the better part of the day. Though he put up respectable passing yardage (289), his output was dwarfed by Kurt Warner’s total (468). Even so, Favre threw for a record six touchdowns in the 56-35 anvil job of the Cards.
The week before, Favre’s gun must have had squib loads as he would have needed another 6 TD night to top the Chargers. Live by the pistola, die by the pistola.
With Tom Brady out, the Colts looking very mediocre and the Chargers running at a mere 11 volts, the AFC is wide open. Ripe fruit for a veteran picker (or pick thrower) like Favre. Now if he can just avoid having to play in any really big games until the Superbowl, then the Jets are totally in this.
The Jets have two weeks to prepare a pistola whipping at home against the Bangles. They better not pull any blind side blitzes on Susanna Hoffs. She knows how to strum an instrument, too.
