Favre Practice Video



All I have to say about this video at www.Vikings.com is that Brett Favre looks vastly better than the miss throws / incompletions they kept showing on ESPN...

Star-divide


Tell me what you think of the video and why not get your hopes up about this season?  The Vikings are now "All In!"  We either win a playoff game and at least go to the NFC title game with #4 or Sage (if or when #4 gets injured) or the Favre Vikings lose and Chilly is gone.


I can't wait to see Adrian Peterson running against a not so full box.  Favre made the Jets running game look good, # 4 will make the Vikings running game look Great!

This is, of course, the footage the team wants you to see so it’s no surprise it’s more impressive than the footage ESPN was showing. It’s important to remember that the dude had literally just hopped on a plane to the Twin Cities, stopped in the Vikings facilities to sign a contract, and then went out to practice. Considering that, I’d say he looked good. And any missteps can be easily excused by the wild circumstances of the day.

GO VIKES!!

I believe the 'push off' cost us 'our' SuperBowl...
I believe you 'go for the win'... instead of 'taking a knee'...

I haven’t seen the ESPN video at all. But the throws in this one seemed to be pretty much all short dump-offs. But he DID just show up to camp, so I’m sure he’s just a bit rusty.

Looking Good So Far

But it’s a highlight reel, not a practice tape. All the miscues and dropped passes are edited out. And he never had the D-line in his face, and I got the impression that the secondary was just out there to give it some flavor.

Still…. he looked smooth, and in a couple days of that he’ll know the speed of all the receivers. Other than PR, that’s all it was, a QB-to-receiver meet ’n greet.

I’ll take it :)

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
SKOL!

The one thing I noticed right away is his ability to lock onto and throw to a receiver in one smooth motion.

You see him scanning the opposite side of the field; and then his arm starts to move, head swivels to match the arm movement and ZING!

Shit. Now I am excited.

I think we all listen to the haters and drink their hater-ade

Because, love him or hate him, this is one of the top 5 greatest QBs of ALL TIME to play the game on our team.
