I wouldn't say he completely outplayed him, considering Brees had 3 TD's to 0 INT's, meanwhile Favre had a couple picks, including a boneheaded one late that essentially killed their season. But I agree he was the better of the two on Sunday. Ya as I posted on here yesterday, even though I'm a serious Favre-hater, I gained mad respect for his toughness in that game. I can't believe he didn't miss a single snap with some of those hits he was taking. Visante Shiancoe played lights out too, that guy's something else.
Ya I don't know what was with Brees in that 2nd half, he was just...off. I haven't seen him miss open receivers like that in a long time. The ball just kept sailing on him. At the time I was actually a little worried he had hurt his throwing arm or something. I expect a much better performance from him in the Super Bowl, I have a feeling he's going to want to prove how good he is to the people of Miami specifically, for obvious reasons..
