I agree. And for those of you criticizing Favre for the INT (and those in previous years), all i have to say to you is this:

1) Minnesota wouldn't have even made the playoffs with Tavaris or Sage as thier QB. AP has been a non-factor most of the year. Favre pretty much carried the team on his back all year.

2) Favre didnt lose the game with his INT. The Vikings defense and special teams lost the game by allowing the saints to start from their own 40 in OT and drive all the way to the vikings 30 to give the Saints an easy FG.

3) Favres had what: 8-9 INTs compared to almost 40 TDs all season (including playoffs). what more do you want from a QB?

4) Favre didn't lose the game - the vikings offense as a whole lost the game for putting the ball on the ground 6 times. The only reason the Vikings were even in this game despite the turnovers was Favre.

5) The Vikings O-line was HORRIBLE. COMPLETELY. UTTERLY. HORRIBLE. The saints front 7 is not that good. Even our horrid O-line did a better job of protecting Campbell than the Vikings' did protecting Favre.
