I'd assume Favre will play a similar role in future games, except when the Vikings face either a superb defense, or when Adrian Peterson is just having an off day. Favre seems to serve now as a simple game manager, which is quite a giant leap from his days of gun-slinging. Sad in one respect, but I suppose also natural at his age.

I would not be surprised if he posts a low INT total in comparison to his last five years.


Anyone know how long McNabb is out for?

He's going to try to play this weekend. I guess it's all a pain tolerance thing. It's not like a rib can be any more broken. I wouldn't be totally surprised if he plays. He once threw for over 300 yds and 4 TDs when he broke his ankle in the 2nd quarter, so he's a pretty tough dude.

If I were the Eagles I would just start Kolb the next two weeks. If he goes 1-1, that will be fine. Then the Eagles get a bye and head into a more difficult schedule against division opponents after that and it would be good to have McNabb somewhat more healed
