BREAKING NEWS: FAVRE PASSES MARINO WITH TOUCHDOWN 421

Brett Favre was as good as ever, becoming the NFL's all-time leader in career touchdown passes with a couple of vintage third-down zingers to help Green Bay stay unbeaten.
Favre was the obvious difference in Sunday's 23-16 victory by the Packers, who hung on against the pass-deficient Minnesota Vikings. He threw No. 421 in the first quarter to Greg Jennings, No. 422 in the fourth quarter to James Jones and went interception-free against a defense determined to make him the league's all-time leader in that category, too. Favre is three picked-off passes away from overtaking George Blanda on the career list. Kelly Holcomb is not quite in Favre's class. He threw a touchdown pass to Sidney Rice with 1:55 left to pull the Vikings within seven, and a nearly disastrous fumble gave Minnesota (1-3) a chance to tie it. Favre's handoff to Ryan Grant was not clean, and Chad Greenway fell on the ball at the Vikings 46. But on Holcomb's tipped pass from the Packers 34 was intercepted by Atari Bigby to seal the game and boost Favre's record at the Metrodome to 6-10. Congratulations to Brett Favre from the entire ASB Nation, and NFLrumorz.com for your 421st touchdown.
