"The Unleashing of Hell". Favre and Gang Green have a record day in the Meadowlands; Jets, 56 - Cards, 35. Jets, 2-2 / Packers, 2-2.
Sore ankle. Schmore Ankle. We said it - me, my brother, Favre fans and Jets' fans. Let Favre unleash hell and we'll pull out a victory. Here, Brett and Coles are celebrating one of Coles' 3 TDs . It's about time they both got on the same page. Cotchery had 2 TDs as well.
(WAIT! There's more...)
The 56 points scored by the Jets is the second most in team history; the Jets recorded a 62-28 win over the Buccaneers during the 1985 season. The Jets scored 34 points in the second quarter, a team record for points scored in any quarter (previous high was 30 points in memorable Monday night win over Dolphins in 2000 season). The all-time quarter record is GB over the Lions in 1945 - 41 pts. in one quarter.
I swear Brett looks like Mark Wahlberg here. Or Mark looks like him.
Brett and his QB coach. What do you suppose this young punk (I say that endearingly) of a coach is saying to Favre - other than, "Nice job on the 6 TDs, Brett."?

Minutia. minutia and more minutia!
- At the 1/4 mark in the regular season, Brett is ranked #1 in TDs, #1 in QB rating and #2 in completion %.
- Until yesterday, the Cardinals defense had been pretty stout. No 100 yd. rushers or 200 yd. passers.
- Blown calls. Hey, happens every week. Here were 3 against the Jets that were questionable: a) Over the back call on Coles - no call and should've been, b) Offsides on defense – Favre thought he had a free play when the defensive lineman jumped the line of scrimmage and instead Favre through his only INT. (the guy WAS offsides), and c) Roughing the kicker – according to the announcers you can't have roughing the AZ kicker if the AZ kicker's teammate pushes a Jet into the kicker. So instead of a field goal, it was first and goal and AZ scored a TD.
Don't rest on your laurels, Gang Green. Favre won't.
NEXT WEEK: Bye
